So after revisiting the albums I found that I still prefer Cobalt to DSO, at least that Cobalt album. If I chose some of the newer albums it may have been a harder decision, because both Gin (2009) and Paracletus (2010) are amazing albums. For the 3-years that I've been listening to Cobalt I've been trying to find out what makes their music so engaging, as upon first listen it doesn't sound much different from some of the other bands. Black metal is all about atmosphere, and DSO know how to do atmosphere as well as any other band. Anyway... I dunno I just prefer Eater of Birds (2007), I still don't know why, it's just the album I would choose to listen to first.
Cobalt - 1
Deathspell Omega - 0
