it's not. the listed albums do not depend on if people actually listen to them, it's because of labels actually allowing them to be put on here. NWB are 99% self-released shit, so since I doubt they have heard of last.fm, they're never going to post album pages on here.

Daughter of Darkness is good, but the 6 hour length makes it a hard listen.

"You'll wait a long, long time for anything much / To happen in heaven beyond the floats of cloud / And the Northern Lights that run like tingling nerves. / The sun and moon get crossed, but they never touch, / Nor strike out fire from each other nor crash out loud. / The planets seem to interfere in their curves / But nothing ever happens, no harm is done. / We may as well go patiently on with our life, / And look elsewhere than to stars and moon and sun / For the shocks and changes we need to keep us sane. / It is true the longest drouth will end in rain, / The longest peace in China will end in strife. / Still it wouldn't reward the watcher to stay awake / In hopes of seeing the calm of heaven break / On his particular time and personal sight. / That calm seems certainly safe to last to-night." - Robert Frost

Does anyone know if the extra tracks on the 2xCD of SHADOW KINGDOM are just "bonus" tracks or are they deliberately intended to be part of the tracklist/experience? They're really great, but it really feels like the record should end on Porridge (starting and ending with a 24-minute epic.

Yeah, Slayer of the King of Hell is just downright phenomenal.

I recommend Daughter of Darkness and Slayer of the King of Hell for anyone that likes NSB. CYANKURUMA: GO GET THOSE TWO.

@cyankuruma - The Snowbringer Cult CD2, especially for this time of year

I'd say The Winter Ray is pretty comparable to Ghost Folks and The Dance of the Moon and the Sun combined.

Shadow Kingdom is most similar to Moon and the Sun in approach, it also has long droney tracks mixed with short vocal 'songs'. If you're looking for heavier more drone-oriented stuff, I recommend Laurie Bird or Sung to the North.

After listening to Ghost Folks and The Dance of the Moon and the Sun, which album should I check out next? I'm really big on instrumental and minimal vocals I might add.
