SAD LEGEND - Searching for the Hope in Utter Darkness EP



http://www.mediafire.com/?xumjgvdnqw4

Good stuff. I don't like it as much as the s/t, but good stuff. Best BM band from South Korea.

There are 3 people around here that I know have copies of the s/t:
Dwyer
AndrewBastard
IxiolKorey

None of which are willing to sell their copy(ies).
I saw the s/t on ebay once or twice for well over 100 bucks. I think it almost went to 200.

I sold (an extra) one for $88 years ago.

And, nope, I don't have this EP, just the full CD of the debut.

The opening track on the self-titled album is great. "Han"
If you read up on what "Han" means it makes the song even better.

wow. neat word

Probably one of my favorite BM albums ever.

listened last night. Good times. Great for a very stormy night. Looking for full length now.

right on. was playing this last night in the rain...perfect.

name of this band fits the music perfectly

East coast message board... east coast of the UK, maybe.

Oh, Conservationist.

This is good. Sad Asian music. Oh so sad and ronery.

Seriously, I like it. Reminds me of X-JAPAN. It might be just me, but I can't help hearing anime-overtoned black metal ballads.

Any word on the full-length/ST? I want it.

And Han - what a word. Of course whities don't have a word for that.

Suddenly I want to listen to Oathean.

The full-length/ST album Sad Legend put out is over 10 years old, so expect the mid-to-late 90s black metal feel. It's way more metal than this EP.. has blastbeats and a harsher guitar tone. It's definitely one of the best blackmetal albums of the late 90s by far. Sadly, I believe it was only pressed once, hence why it goes for $150+ on ebay. Oathean is good, so is Holymarsh

"feeling of unresolved resentment against injustices suffered, a sense of helplessness because of the overwhelming odds against one, a feeling of acute pain in one's guts and bowels, making the whole body writhe and squirm, and an obstinate urge to take revenge and to right the wrong -- all these combined."

hmm...pretty much exactly what i feel at this period in history.

Essentially, I think North Korea is too caught up in Han. What is Han to them, is not Han to South Korea.

Bump in honor the TRUE Korea.
Also, original pressing of the s/t copy FINALLY obtained since this thread was made. Phew

lol @ Jim channeling the essence of Korean culture for the rest of us

NORTH KOREA IS BEST KOREA

I have both albums bootlegged. Decent band was decent.

So did Dwyer finally sell you a copy, or what?
