when i heard about isis, i went straight into the record store and bought oceanic, i even borrowed money, i was on a mission to listen to that shit. when i got thru listening to the whole album, i was spent but i couldn't wait to listen to it again.
with khanate i had a different problem because i heard sunn o))) first, white 2 actually and i was still over the moon with that one, then i got flight of the behemoth and was even more into that stuff; so when i heard khanate (s/t) i expected something with that sonic depth and dynamism and got this incredibly slow doom metal instead and i thought it was ok. then i heard capture & release and i couldn't get past the song capture because i would get incredibly bored, i choked it to not having things viral which was supposed to be their masterpiece. then a couple of months latter, listened to the s/t titled again, full blast and final got it.
and the funny thing is, i have been into heavy, brutal metal stuff (like death, grind, black, etc.) longer than pretty much any other kind of music, and when i hear this doom band that's heavy and brutal, i didn't know what to make of it.
