Nasciturus - Fabulae (Upconvert)

This is a bizarre but really cool album. From Poland!

Thank you, Diegocereal, for sharing this with us, and for suggesting I hear it.!

The first time I began it, the cat ran away during track #1, and so did I. How dischordant and crazy. I skipped the rest of track #1, left it playing and went to sleep. As it turns out, the rest of the album is unique and cool (and track #1 is ok too), so I've restarted or replayed it maybe 5 times -- it plays right now -- while I adapt myself to the strange sound of this nifty black-metal group.

No rating yet -- the music still has me perplexed -- but I think once I've finally grokked it, it will earn a decent rating. The bass guitar really stands out in this music, funky!

The guitar solos & bass playing are great..

Besides the super-springy pronounced bass guitar, this Polish music is a sonic deviation from normality -- changing styles / arrangements, changing tempo... Listening to this album is a bit like watching Naked Lunch with the sound turned off -- it's so strange, but you can't stop. Did you think of Crazy Train any time while listening?

Music is aggressive, often reasonably paced or better, with more-than-adequate percussion, metallic-sounding guitar, and a nice angry vocalist. Throw in the nifty bass, the lead solos, and we have a very interesting, enjoyable experience. I'm still listening, again!

Final marks: approximately 9+ / 10.
