"I think this album is very suggestive, but the tags are definitely wrong, I think it should be tagged as "horror" and "soundtrack". From my point of view, that is what it is: a horror soundtrack. And a very scary and atmospheric one, at that! Don't expect an album in a traditional sense, let yourselves go and create the film images in your head. Once you realize that that peculiar sound is actually the butterfly's wings flapping, you'll be amazed at how effective it is :)
It's an excellent work!"

Works a little -too- well for me

16/09/09

Mostly when I listen to music, I do so to support or create a certain mood, to steer my (day)dreams into a certain direction. This album is just great at such a job, especially when you're into nightmares.

I was brave (or paralyzed?) enough to bear through the whole album in a single session. ;-) Especially the "Horrhoe", "Frostbitten Heartbeat" and "Wither" tracks gave me the goosebumps. I can't quite put my finger on something specific, but played in the right place this could easily horrify people beyond sanity. Great thanks for "Fragile" being there and being the last track, which helped me find my way into the light back from that pitch black, cold, damp, scary place the previous tracks pulled me into.

Don't get me wrong here -- this is not bad in a musical or technical sense at all -- quite the opposite is the case. It's bad in its very nature in that it induces fear in the boldest of hearts. I can only recommend leaving your eyes open and the lights turned on while listening, I myself will try to avoid ever listening to this again. But I am sure to remember this piece of art as very well done, and of great power.

Excellent melodic minimalist ambience

09/09/09

With a name like Scabeater, you could be tempted to expect Golden Butterfly to be some sort of extreme black metal opus with an ironic title--but, in reality, this is a wonderfully sparse, elegant album of eerie minimalist ambience that is at once melodic and amorphous. Another review stated that Golden Butterfly has a horror-movie soundtrack sort of feel to it, and that is a very accurate description: the music is very evocative of horror soundtracks, but does not need any accompanying visuals (save those conjured up in your own mind) to work. Whether listening intently to the simple but very effective orchestration, or just letting this album play in the background while writing or reading, you'll find your hackles rising and you may look over your shoulder occasionally to see if anyone or anything is there. I highly recommend this album for fans of Nightmare Lodge, Forma Tadre, and John Carpenter.

Lot of potential

01/09/09

There is a lot of potential here. The sounds really draw you in but I would have loved to hear a lot more beats as Scabeater lists that he plays the drums. Can't wait to hear the next album...

very interesting

First of all, I love the butterfly!~ The track is great background music. I'm not generally in to this kind, but I like the beginning very much. Nice drumming throughout the rest:)

Interesting Sounds, But is that enough?

19/08/09

The albums frequent use of that "scatter" sound you hear toward the beginning of the record is frustrating and maddening. There are some wonderful sounds on this recording but for the most part it sounds like a scary and annoying horror film. But still it is an awesome effort and the production values are great and I cannot claim to be any better than anyone so...good work.
