Faerghail - Rehearsal 1995


Faerghail - Rehearsal 1995
1) In Dreamful Supremacy

A quickie to end the month, here's another Faerghail item I found dubbed to end of a tape, obviously as a filler by one of my tape traders in the 90's. I posted their cassette EP last year, if you wondered about that "another". This is something probably just dubbed to some contacts of the band and then around the tape trading circles so no real cover exists. I went with maximum minimalism this time.

As you note, this track would later appear on the 1996 demo of the same name which I haven't heard so I can't say if this version differs much. Of course since this is an earlier rehearsal recording I'd assume this sounds rougher and more primitive. Style-wise this is slow to midtempo dark metal and sounds doomier than the material on the cassette EP. Not too bad rehearsal sound, the raspy vocals are buried somewhat by the stringed instruments but I can live with that. It's pretty decent and makes me want to hear the first demo and the rehearsal demo mentioned on M.A. So, not a shining pinnacle of musicianship but has that crude charm and a wintry atmosphere to it. Recommended with some reservations.

I'm a sucker for mid-tempo stuff. So the non-shining pinnacle of musicianship is okay by me.

Sure the cassette is more accomplished, but I'm down with crude charm of any sort.

Thanks for the post.

I was actually quite surprised how much better this track sounded now after a long time hearing it last time. Makes me interested in their other old material.
