the day of the baphomets bass intro is an example of something that scratches my brain, especially when it starts to buildup and you can hear juan getting super intricate with it. you really gotta appreciate it, even if you don’t play an instrument, it sounds damn-near impossible. it probably sounds more difficult to bass players, actually
also the rest of the song‼️the chorus sounds like a cultish chant, ced desperately screaming poachers in your home (it fills me with an inexplicable urge to jump up and break shit it’s so intense. it sounds like a warning cry, like he’s warning you of the cult’s actions and that they’ve already infiltrated the church and the lives of the people, hence “poachers in your home”.) DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW EVIL THE WHOLE HANDS SECRETE A MONUMENT PART SOUNDS‼️ it once again sounds like a chant since the line reads to me as they’re doing summoning rituals and shit.. and THE BONGO SOLO + the aftermath of it???? holy shit. somehow the bongo solo blends right in with how chaotic the rest of the song sounds, even though it comes out of nowhere, and the part immediately after flows SO fucking well it’s not even funny. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE ced’s vocals here too, how high pitched they are and i can’t explain the vibe, but i love it smsmsmsmmsmmmmm… more ritualistic chanting AND MORE POACHERS IN YOUR HOME, NOW SOUNDING MORE DESPERATE AND GUTTURAL‼️ ITS AMAZING THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH, BUT THAT SPECIFIC LINE IS STUCK IN MY MIND.
i heard somebody describe it as aggressive jazz, and that’s a near-perfect description for this song. but i feel like this transcends any existing genre, it’s insane woaaaaH
