Discussion What's an album you've loved for years that nobody seems to know about? [As Night Conquers Day by Autumn Leaves]
Artist: Autumn Leaves
Album: As Night Conquers Day (1999)
I've been listening to this album since probably the early 2000s (I believe I was 14 at the time of discovery), and it's still one of my favorite melodeath albums to this day. I would say 99% of the buddies I've played it for over the years haven't heard of the band or this album. It's one of those records that seems to have been largely forgotten, which is a shame because I think it's an absolute gem.... even after all these years, it still hits the same way it did when I first heard it.
It got me thinking about all the great bands that never really got their due from the melodeath genre. So, what's a lesser-known band or a one album wonder that you think deserved a much bigger audience? I'm always looking for hidden classics that other people have kept to themselves over the years.
P.S. Please check it out, this album deserves a listen through at least once. Favorite song off this album is Another Day, Another Demon... it has such an epic sound to it.
