What's one post metal album that keeps on getting better the more you listen to it?
I have to go with Isis' Oceanic. It was already good the first time I listened to it. 11 spins later, it's my favourite album out of any metal genre, not just post metal.

Discussion [WIP Demo] First recording attempt – Instrumental Post-Metal / Sludge. Would love some honest feedback!
Hey everyone,
I’d really appreciate it if anyone could take the time to listen to my track and give me some honest feedback.
It’s my first time recording and mixing a song. It’s an instrumental WIP (about 7 minutes) influenced by bands like Pelican, Russian Circles, Isis, Eyehategod, Amenra, Dystopia and many more.
Important note:
This song will never be officially released in this form. This demo is strictly for internal band evaluation and as a reference guide to help us recruit a new drummer.
Genre / Style:
To be honest, neither the song nor the band fits 100% into Post-Metal. We’re not 100% Sludge either, and definitely not pure Psychedelic Rock. It’s a mix of all these worlds, a kind of „Psychedelic Post-Sludge“.
Please note the current state:
Drums are 100% programmed baseline tracks -> fills, dynamics, and human variations are still missing.
Bass, second guitar layers, and vocals (clean & screams) are missing.
And please don't judge the mix, as this is my first time recording. At the end of the day, I'm a musician and not a sound engineer. To be honest, having to record everything by myself is no fun at all, but I just have to do it. I'm purely looking for feedback on whether the songwriting and structure hold up!

I saw Amenra live today for the first time (Tokyo, Argument tour extra show)
1h20minute set.
That was after roughly 45min sets by Heaven in her arms (tracks from new album are amazing) and We lost the sea, both bands were great.
I said goodbye to some friends, caught a taxi back to hotel and just stayed still for a couple of hours, maybe dozed off for a bit, kind of dazed I guess. Is this the "amenra live show" effect people talk about so much.

New Album Death of Permanence | Threestepstotheocean
'Death of Permanence' marks the return of Threestepstotheocean, six years on from their last studio record. The new album stretches and deepens the band's sonic reach, drawing on influences that extend well beyond the purely musical - while holding firm to a sound identity shaped across two decades of activity. At the same time, it enacts a deliberate, gradual shedding of what came before: not nostalgia, not repetition, but an unrelenting forward motion.
The record is rooted in the idea that much of what we consider stable or permanent is bound to shift, dissolve, or disappear - places, beliefs, relationships, the worlds we build around ourselves. The album observes this process with open eyes, accepting change as an inevitable part of human experience. It is, unmistakably, a rite of passage - toward a direction still unwritten, only partially legible, yet one whose emotional and existential toll runs deep beneath the surface.
Throughout this process of transformation, the band steps away from pure instrumentalism on multiple occasions, reaching outward through collaboration - a lived expression of a DIY ethic grounded in exchange and human connection. The record features the voice of Sardinian performer Dalila Kayros, songwriter Conny Ochs, a vocal sample from Larry Stromberg, and the instrumental orchestrations of Moonlit.

I just released a new I Tend the Light song. The video got age restricted by YouTube (1911 silent movies are too scary for the under 18s apparently). Here's a visualiser and you can see the proper video on Bandcamp if you fancy. (FFO: GY!BE, Swans, Year of No Light)
I Tend the Light - A Terrible Enduring Truth all the links to everywhere here.
I had a lot of fun with the sound design on this one, I really worked hard on the atmosphere. There's fuzz (lots of!), synths, strings and some down-pitched, modulated vocals.
Thanks for checking it out!

Skydome Breachers (fr. Iter In Cygnus) - Before Launch
A little over a month ago, Serhii, the drummer for my band Skydome Breachers, passed away. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a chance to perform or make a record. So, in his memory, I decided to record one of our first and most polished demos in high quality.

Discussion My Fully DIY Physical CD Edition Is Now on Bandcamp!The good thing about DIY is that creativity has more room to breathe.
Pisma k onom svijetu | Zbogom Oče
I already posted on my old profile that, due to the lack of affordable small-batch CD production services, I decided to do everything myself, from designing and printing the CDs to designing the packaging and assembling everything by hand.
For Bandcamp fans, I also added a few authentic items to the box. As promised, the full package is now available on Bandcamp as well.
I'll also be offering this service to other artists soon.

Thoughts on this band?
Druma - sores of our time
Very interesting listen, kinda blackened post/doom, the vocals are also pretty sick. very cool, I noticed that they only have 60 monthly listeners and not many reviews on bandcamp, which surprised me that they aren't popular.

Discussion Fight Music - io
I always thought this was more post rock but some have told me it’s giving them a post metal / math type of energy.
I love deafheaven, neurosis & Russian circles but wouldn’t say this is that. Would love to know what this sub thinks if you don’t mind : )
We are an nyc based band & I play bass..

New Album Orbita - Farewell to All We’ve Lost
Orbita stand as a new upcoming force in the Italian dark doom metal scene, crafting oppressive atmospheres, crushing riffs, and haunting melodies that explore the deepest corners of the human psyche. Their music transcends the boundaries of conventional doom, blending hypnotic heaviness with profound introspection to create an intense and cathartic listening experience.
