James Norbert Ivanyi - Omen Faustum

Post by Mardoch » Mon Sep 28, 2020 10:51 am

A little bit of jazz, a little bit of metal, a touch of electronics...and a lot of interesting. I'd be so bold as to say there's a lot of Spastic Ink influence on display. There's only one track up for preview right now, but it's a strong enough track that I'm slapping down a preorder.

This one's out now and...wow I'm really loving it. This is some Grade A wonky jazz metal fusion nonsense. I think this is probably a top 10 contender for me already. I love an album that makes me audibly exclaim "hell yeah!"

James and Plini are the only two "shred" type artists that I find interesting anymore, and they both are forces to be reckoned with!

I had to look back at where I heard of him from and it was Bandcamp recommending him to me because of you, so thanks for that! I was still rocking this all day today.

I checked this out last night and was pleasantly surprised. Some very tasty instrumental rock.
Is a song titled "Everybody Dies" supposed to sound so happy?

Man, I wish I enjoyed instrumental music more than I do - I can clearly hear the talent on display here, but after just a song or two I'm bored out of my mind. Such a shame though, as I'm sure this is top notch for the genre. I buy less than 5 instrumental albums a year, and I end up listening to them once or twice and that's it.
