About Rising Phoenix Music

Welcome to Rising Phoenix Music, a blog that's not so one-sided and biased, but has a variety of music that could suit the different tastes of others. I post and review heavy, brutal, loud, soft, relaxing, chill, and experimental music, so look through my archives, we might just have what you're looking for. I made this blog for the sake of these artists--new and old--to share my opinion on their music, and to tell you why I like it and why you might like it too! The artists and albums I post here all deserve to be known, praised, and remembered. I simply want to promote a vast variety of good music and to help out the bands and artists that deserve your attention, not piracy and stealing to deprive these bands of their income. I also believe that you cannot fully judge a band or musician until you have heard most of their material completely, which is why the albums are up for download. I urge you to buy the albums, buy their merchandise, go see them live (if they're still together) and support them!

One of the most beautiful and wonderfully composed albums I've ever come across. September Malevolence is a brilliant band and After This Darkness, There's A Next is a brilliant album. There is something about this album that just gets inside of me and stays there... it has definitely had a lasting impression on me. The lyrics are great, the melodies and drumming are fantastic in their simplicity and serenity, and their vocalist (Martin Lundmark) has an almost haunting, but wonderful singing voice. I don't know what it is about Sweden that produces so many amazingly talented musicians (I mean, seriously... I can name tons!). Download this, listen to it, appreciate its incomparability, and support this awesome band by buying it!
