I'm having a hard time even finding any Shub Nigurath, but more importantly, do you really have over 48,000 posts???

I have two Shub-Niggurath albums on CD and both are excellent. Les morts vont vite is a classic. A fantastic album and very dark too... perhaps darker than Heresie and Ceux du Dehors. C'étaient de très grands vents is also excellent but it is more minimalist and even darker than their previous. A lot more avant-garde as well. I also have heard the original self-titled cassette by them as well and this is also excellent. Not as good as Les morts vont vite but still excellent. I have yet to hear Live though. I forget where I purchases these albums from now... I think C'étaient de très grands vents I got from Caiman via Amazon and Les mort vont vite may have been the same... or it may have been from Greg Walker or Wayside. But both albums are certainly available still. As for the post-count: unfortunately it is true Edited by James - September 22 2008 at 03:09 |

Fine band! And no, they definitely don't sound like Magma. Or any zeuhl really. They have more in common with bands in the Univers Zéro/early Art Zoyd vein.
I really recommend searching for their other two albums as well. More mature and accomplished, and much better than Les morts, in my opinion. |

Reiterate that most all of Shub-Niggurath can be found on mindawn, DRM free downloads offering FLAC (lossless) and OGG (lossy).

I agree. Shub-Niggurath aren't really Zeuhl, apart from elements in Les Morts Vont Vite, they really do belong in RIO/Avant if you ask me.
Testament is more like a dark and atonal noise-rock album, while C'etatient de Tres Grands is like a bridge between Les Morts and Testament. Excellent stuff all of it, although VERY difficult listening for many..

It must be a very good disguise. I love Shub-Niggurath. It's one of my favourite chamber rock bands. |

Logan just committed a slight faux-pas.
Only the original self-titled cassette album and Les Morts Vont Vite are Chamber Prog really. C'etatient de Tres Grands is as Blowie says, a different beast. A very dark, noise-rock album. Nothing like their first two. I haven't heard Testament yet, so I cannot comment on it. All are excellent though. Think of later Shub-Niggurath as closer to Ahvak and Guapo's Black Oni, only even darker, dissonant and noisey. Less structured too. |

Good point, James. I was indeed referring to the self-titled and Les Morts....

anyone hear that track from the Enneade compilation "J'ai vu naguere"? I think it's only exclusive to that comp, I found the LP for $8 a while back ago, worth it for that track alone...which might be the darkest and noisiest track they ever recorded,

I have Delear Prius from Douze Pour Un Volume 2. However, I think it's the same as the album version.
I need that Enneas track though. Is it different to the album version? |

Spot on!
Testament is even more extreme than C'etatient again, James. Totally abstract, dark and noisy!

weird, I I listened to them both today and I guess it is the same recording, it sounds a lot fuller off the LP, Im assuming the mastering on the CD takes out some of that beefy reverberation that the LP possesses, such a shame...now I wish to hear a vinyl copy of Les Morts Vont Vite to see if there is a noticeable difference in sound Edited by mithrandir - November 16 2008 at 14:06 |

WARNING !!!!!!! There is another band with the same name. That band is from Mexico and their music is Death/Black/Thrash Metal. I knew them well enough to offer them a record deal ten years ago. I never heard back from them, but I know the band has released three studio albums.
Beware. |
