Grandiose, nearly over the top in every way possible
>>61218798
Maximal ego masturbation, you mean
Mbongwana Star - From Kinshasa
Pretty maximal if you ask me.
>>61218804
Their only maximal is S&M...and that sucked imo.
>>61218798
In regards to the music in lieu of the concept of the album, I agree. The music itself is pretty simple, though the studio effects are pretty maximalist, especially on Amused to Death.

He was a total megalomaniac back in the day, but he seems to have chilled out these days though.

Frickin loved this, prog metal classic
>>61220257
Did you listen to it with your signature fedora?
I want to love this record because it's so maximalist but a lot of it is really medicore.
dun kno tings
>>61220274
No, with my ears. I liked how it sounded. That's pretty much it.
Is this maximalist?
>>61220701
absolutely not, Trent said he specifically avoided making it too bold, heavy or complex.
>>61220757
Is it subtlely maximalist though? It is sonically complex, even a bit chaotic
>>61220796
subtly maximalist seems like a bit of an oxymoron no?
>>61218789
Prog and power metal fits really well into this
>>61220826
more like kameltoe amirite

If you compare it to C&L...yes.
>>61220879
it is objectively maximalist though, from the orchestral instrumentation to the lyrical scope to the duration
SILY
Bumping with one of the most maximalist albums in metal.
No Now
>>61220860
Also this
>>61221280
definitely
>>61220332
I would say Bromst is more maximalist
>>61220210
idk, it's loud but it's not all that complex
First song just throws a bunch of shit at you, even an hip-hop sample, and after that it just keeps mixing a bunch of shit, and it's still a fantastic album
It's essentially the black metal answer to Mr. Bungle, with a lot of non-preachy social commentary on France
