I saw that but there wasn't any details. If I had a nickel for every time a band goes, it sounds WAY more dynamic when in fact just the opposite it is true, I would be a rich man.
However, it looks like it is indeed a lot more dynamic which is very good news. Thanks for the tip!
The most noticeable "more dynamic" part I hear is the drums. Very good transients and separation. (Sounds like I'm describing headphones now. lol)
I also noticed a few of their other albums have high DR while others are very low:

They botched the remaster of Verwüstung, which took it from DR 9 to 5. When I first got it, I thought it sounded dirty and distorted compared to the original.
I would love to see a proper remaster of Satanized, since it's only DR 4. I really enjoy that album.

Ordered this box set of the complete works of the salem oregon "Sludge-drone doom metal" band HELL. Not the heavy metal UK hell. This band rules. It's dark, riff intensive and non-melodic metal, disorienting and sinister, long tracks which seem a bit godspeed you! black emperor influenced. Hardcore music, for hardcore people. This **** sold out so fast on bandcamp, I'm glad I got it when I did.
Let this be a lesson to some of you green fellas, works like this gem right here sell out really fast and are sold in limited quantity, and are then very difficult to get a copy of if you don't buy them immediately on release. So don't be telling me I don't buy music, when you're merely expressing your blatant ignorance.

How convenient: looks like most of their material is available in a single compilation on Bandcamp. Good stuff.

I still like Esoteric way more. You may already know that funeral doom/death metal band. Here's my favorite track by them. Epic build-up starting at 8 minutes!
Paragon of Dissonance by Esoteric
This black metal track is doom-ish. With the right headphones, it can rattle your head. I used to talk to one of the members of this band.

Going and digging into the used CD bins in 2003, I found TITP and didn't know who they were. But the place had a CD player. It did not look like a metal CD cover. So now even 13 more years later it's total entertainment to see folks bring up that album. There has never been anything like it. The special charm is the mood of that record, and that they put a bunch of interesting instruments into the mix?
Can't wait for that new Saor record. It's interesting to hear a record without Austin Lunn's drumming. I kinda like the change to more straightforward beats; let's the song breathe a little more.
Here's a crushing, esoteric one for you guys, the new Thy Catafalque album is streaming in its entirety. I'm really not sure what to classify this as, but it's got crushing guitarsm, atmospheric ambient touches and interludes, as well as melodic undertones. Definitely avant-garde, but not in that ultra-weird sense a la Unexpect.
The symphonic-folk-pagan-black-metal epics are strong this year!
The one that has been demanding nearly all of my listening time is most definitely the new Moonsorrow. Wow, what an album. The new Saor should be equally great (or maybe almost equally heh).
Oh yeah, Borknagar too! My wife just bought it, so I'll hear the whole thing once it comes in the mail, but the song Winter Thrice is so good. Those clean vocals are just so catchy and well composed/performed. It's somewhat of a formulaic song, but they did a great job of it.
