Annoyingly there are two bands called Witch Trail, both put out albums this year. Both are very good.

The GB record is great btw, I've only recently listened to it when compiling my EoY ballot. Caught it just in time.
Afloat off the Witch Trail (indie-metal variant) album is quite something

Album is pretty nice on first listen. May well buy this. Tracks 3 and 4 sound like they're in 12tet, I think?
The 17edo guitar is interesting. Each division (so each fret) would be about 70.59 cents, I think, meaning P5s would be pretty close to what we're used to, only about 6 cents sharp of 12tet P5s and 4 cents sharp from just P5s. But what happens to thirds seems most interesting: you'd get intervals of about 282.35 cents, 352.94 cents, and 423.53 cents, so either a very flat (18 cents) minor third, almost an exact neutral third (halfway between major and minor), or a very sharp major 3 (by 24 cents, and actually more like 38 compared to a just M3). Ofc, some precision is lost when distorting but distorted microtonal tunings still produce different effects than distorted 12tet. Did Ron Sword make the guitar?
I do wonder about these guitars. With 17edo, I could see how you could play on most of the neck with very precise fingering (and she seems to, although I'm sort of interested to hear what it sounds like past the 17th fret without distortion). With the 24tet guitar, I do wonder what technique you could use to play near the octave or higher, to get your fingers just between the frets. Even Sword seems like he's squeezing when he's halfway there on this instrument: https://youtu.be/RWCwMW48FO4?t=90
Also wonder how tricky it is to ensure the intonation of these things. Probably things to ask the Xenharmonic FB group.

is there any reason, in this era of digital audio, why metal guitarists aren't recording 100 guitar tracks on everything

Omg he's practically been releasing an album a month. I blinked and missed it.

These are mostly rereleases, although that one^ has some self-remix work so I'll def check it out. His next album proper should be along at some point soon.

My copy of that Kostnateni is supposed to get here later today, heard a lot of god things.
It seems increasingly hard to get the ilx metal crew excited about nearly anything black metal these days. Seems like the (understandable!) desire to avoid the Nazi sympathetic black metal musicians has led more than a few people around here to just swear the genre off completely.
― Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 1 June 2023 20:51 (eleven months ago) link
Kostnateni and VOTS are explicitly and obviously decent people, clearly against any of that shit. Basic comprehension is usually enough to confirm when someone's fine. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is unimaginably dumb

Jute Gyte devotes Bandcamp Friday proceeds to the National Abortion Fund. Ayloss aka Spectral Lore just did a record in support of Mediterranean refugees. Black metal that is explicitly For Good Causes is very easy to find
― imago, Thursday, 1 June 2023 20:56 (eleven months ago) link
Even more morally ambiguous cases like Ruins Of Beverast are no more sus than the average metal musician I'd say
― imago, Thursday, 1 June 2023 21:00 (eleven months ago) link
Oh absolutely, I know, I'm happy to throw money to folks like Jute Gyte and those fighting the good fight. I'm just saying, it seems like black metal is being given a wide berth around here and I know at least one sometimes ilxor has explicitly stated they've walked away from black metal.

But as I say, I don't need my BM to be explicitly hard-leftist to enjoy it. It is possible to dig around about an artist if you're not sure, and it's usually pretty clear if they're Mean and Nasty. And then once you've done due diligence it's your decision whether to try to enjoy the music or not
