Seigmen - Norways first post-metal act

I just have that feeling when i listen ot their music, and how they evolved and the short span between each record they are to me equivelant to Neurosis and Tool now in the realm of experimental early 90s metal/rock acts

my Seigmen madness have infected PA, and now it will infect MMA, they were a utterly stunning band, who also can be argued to be one of the first post-metal bands in the world.

they are labeld goth metal but that I feel is just a short amount of how they sound to me, they have a dence and a changing sound throughout the 90s,.  this I will recomend to fans of both Neurosis, Tool, Melvins, Ulver, Meshuggah, Isis, Mastodon, Pelican, Cult of Luna, Sigur Ros, Porcupine Three and Ozric Tentacles

i would recomend all their albums really and listen to them from the debute EP from 1992 uptil the last (and only english lingual album ) Radiowaves from 1997.

I had all their albums on loan from the library about 4 or 5 years back. Really depressive and dark stuff. I�ll probably loan the albums again sometime, listen to them and review them.

I wonder if Mastodon have heard Seigmen couse two Mastodon intros sounds like Seigmen intros, juse check the intro of Badazzled Fingernails and Seigmens -  Ohm

this is one of the best songs made k

bump

I've only heard (/own) Total, which I've not listened to in a long time (I remember it being, somewhat, Gothic? influenced), so this might be a good reminder to give it another spin.
