NicktheBishop posted:Don't skip Emperor. Yeah, early Emperor is choice. The first two albums are among my favorite of the whole genre, even though my young death metal ears sure hated it when it first came out. Emperor's always had their own approach to the "symphonic" style anyway. It's a long way from Noktunral Mortum or Dimmu Borgir. Love Rat fucked around with this message at 04:09 on Jan 22, 2009 |

Exploring the classics also means checking out some Bathory. This is foundational stuff. Dirty, hellbound, epic, with disastrous vocals that somehow make the whole thing greater. At least check out Under the Sign of the Black Mark and Blood Fire Death.

Cor Scorpii and Mistur are the two most similar. quote:Noktunral Mortum Lunar Poetry is brilliant; it's too bad they had to go all NSBM on their full-lengths.

Sarcofago, too. I wish someone had told me about Sarcofago when I was first learning about black metal.

Just saw this on Blabbermouth searching for the Gorgoroth trial news: Wardruna - Dagr (Live) I think it's pretty neat. Not "metal" per se, but maybe metal by association...?

I was skeptical how they could claim to PLAY fire, but gently caress me, they did and you can definitely tell when you hear it. The vocals can get very old very quickly but all in all this is a pretty cool idea they've come up with.

I listened to it on their MySpace page, and I'll probably pick it up next week after I get paid. I've got a buddy from Poland who is really into BM. His friends will buy albums there and ship them to him (and therefore me too) here in the states for cheap - awesome. Satyricon is playing Detroit tonight but I can't go. Unfortunately I'm required to attend my girl's grandparents 50th anniversary party.

The last I heard about Frost is that he was working with Ghaal and King for their new Gorgoroth album (yessss). 1349 has been in the states as recent as September of last year, but they used Tony Laureano. I don't have time to really explore Satyricon's website before I leave, but I would bet they'll use Trym Torson or Joey Jordison like they have in the past. So, yeah. Not sure, but probably some substitute.

IMO Infidel Art, Imaginary Sonicscape, Scorn Defeat, and Scenario IV are Sigh's best, in that order. I cannot even stand to listen to Hangman's Hymn for more than 5 minutes, but a lot of people like it.

At least part of Frost's  factor comes from the cat-eye contacts.Oh and the vaguely effeminate voice.

Well, there you have it then. And yeah, that's Frost on the left. I had the same reaction when I first saw him without paint on. Nearly every other BM musician looks normal, not Frost. Not Frost.

A favorite of mine is Twilightfall. For those who prefer Lunar Poetry over everything later they did, check it out if you haven't already. It's a bit more mid-paced and death metal-ish, same rear end-kickery.

On the Satyricon DVD Frost struck me as less-than-sane. I love his work and everything, but he's definitely a weird one.
