Deep respect from Moscow, Russia. I'am 45 years old, and you know man... When I was 20 years old - me and my friends created the band with the same name :)))) We wanted to play doom-death, but something goes wrong. And you know... I'am very glad that you play your amazing music under that name. Long live rock'n'roll. And peace for all...
@user-ne8ti2mz3s11 місяців тому
Another greeting from Russia, St. Petersburg. Man, your music makes me feel that nothing is lost yet for the world and for me, just a 26 y.o man. Peace for all, let the world become a truly safer place...

About a month or so ago, I needed new metal to listen to. I was bored and typed into youtube "mysterious instrumental djent" and found the band Shokran and their first album. I was absolutely blown away by the sound of that band. Went back to youtube a few weeks later on that same album and saw this album in the video feed. I havent stopped listening to this album since. Holy nuts this is so damn good. Got me now writing music like this on my guitar. Not nearly as good but still an amazing inspiration!!!
@zulegmatРік тому

i have the exact same story dude. only difference for me. is it was around the time this album was released i guess shokran is a gateway to shades of black

But yeah no problem, UKposts is a great place to listen to music now and a great way for people to discover my music and listen to it in its entirety whenever they'd like. Bandcamp to me is just a means for people to donate money if they really like my music. So if someone can't afford it or doesn't have the means to buy the album at least they can still listen to it here.

Awesome album. Thanks for the great music. Your playing has been one of my biggest influences. I still remember your tutorial video where I learnt the phrygian dominant, byzantine and diminished scale. Now I play drums for a death metal band. I write the songs on guitar as well, and there are people telling me they like my songs in particular. :)
