So I listened to both. These ratings are rough estimates (close enough), I rate albums by going through all tracks, rating them individually, then averaging it out. I don't like rating entire albums or worse an entire artist. It doesn't say much because it's the tracks inside that I'm actually listening to and the bad tracks I skip along.
1.5/5 (Khanate). I couldn't get into the empty sound of the music. I have other bands that provide the same mood and atmosphere while having a sound that captivates my attention.
4/5 (Lord Mantis). It has a really nice evil sound to it, really liked the unique vocals. I really liked the rolling riffs. The melody and grit was done really tastefully. I think I discovered a new black/melodic black metal artists I really like.
Lord Mantis - 2
Khanate - 0
