From my experience it's easier to familiarize girls with lovely southern lord black metal bands than with Jesus Lizard, Shellac or Amebix. Women are dumb and vapid

So I guess Infernus won the dispute over the name Gorgoroth? "Oslo City District Court has today [Tuesday, March 10] delivered a verdict on the main question in the GORGOROTH trademark case, which took place at the end of January 2009. The court has decided that King ov Hell's trademark registration #243365 of the band name GORGOROTH is NOT valid and shall therefore be deleted. The court states that King ov Hell and Gaahl excluded themselves from the band GORGOROTH when they tried to fire Infernus in October 2007. The court further states that Infernus cannot be excluded from GORGOROTH, unless he himself decides to quit. Infernus is very pleased, but not surprised, by this verdict. The remaining issues concerning financial matters and such are yet to be decided upon."

I don't give a poo poo if anyone gets to use it ever again. I just want this sissy slapfighting to end and everyone starts writing. Personally I expect better poo poo coming from gaahl and king but I'm curious to hear if Infernus really is that uninvolved in the writing like those two say.

I agree with Morbid Florist. I like both factions of the group, but iirc, King did most if not all of the writing on the last couple of albums. Old Gorgoroth is a classic BM band, thanks to Infernus' writing, and it'll be interesting to hear what he puts out in the next couple of years. For his sake and his die-hard fans, I hope it's a return to the Antichrist/Pentagram days. On the flipside, I hope Gaahl and King keep going in the direction they have been. The last few Gorgoroth albums are pretty sweet IMO.

I could care less if either group uses the name. Personally, I prefer to see them come up with something totally original. Maybe, "An Old Smelly Witch's oval office", "The Rotting Forest of the Northern Black Hills" or "The Foolish Nazarene". If they wanted to stick with the whole Tolkien name thing like Gorgoroth, I'd say, "Oh My, The Shire Is Burning and Frodo Is High On Pipeweed!" Now that's real metal.

I had a friend who worked a summer at Hot Topic. I asked if he could get sweet t-shirts for cheap, but looked at me funny when I named off bands. Which is for the better, I suppose. Let the scene kids buy what they want, I just want new albums from these guys. I saw your post in the other metal thread about Varg. Grrreeeeaaat. I've said it before, the best thing he's done for metal in recent years is stay in jail. Also: "Barad-dûûm"

Let it be said for the record that I am not, and never have been, a fan of Kristian "Varg" Vikernes the person (and have some difficulty listening to his music due to his actions/statements). It's just that him getting out of jail is, well, a bit of a milestone. He was in jail when I got into metal so it's hard to think of him out.

Just as long as he doesn't do what Jon of Dissection did, and ruin his band, good for him. I can't believe he's getting out, I figured he was in there forever. I will admit that IF he can do something on par with Aske or Filosofem, I would be fired up. But I don't expect it that's for sure.

I'm sure that Norway is fairly similar to Denmark in that a life sentence usually doesn't mean more than 14 years. The only way to really get locked away forever is if you're deemed to be criminally insane, then they can lock you up for good. The longest time served in modern time in Denmark was 33 years and he was only kept in so long because he shot four cops during a robbery.

Vikernes was sentenced to 21 years (the most possible) + 10 years "sikring". The thing is that most convicts only serve 2/3 of their sentence, provided their behavior in prison is good. So, considering he was arrested in August of 2003, he has actually served almost 16 years, which is more than 2/3. I'm thinking this is because he escaped a few years ago. Anyway, I wouldn't mind a new Filosofem.

I don't know why this keeps getting billed as "escaping." They let him out for the weekend and he didn't come back. I don't understand how Norway thinks that is a good idea.

They don't treat their prisoners like caged animals so that when they get out, they don't continue to act like caged animals like we do here. If you have a connection to your old life by getting weekend passes, you're way more likely to keep that in mind when you're inside. On the other hand ask a US inmate who's done 30 years what life means to him.

Jon should've released Reinkaos under a different band name, considering how different its music was from its predecessors. That said, Varg should've done the same thing with his last two Burzum albums. I don't care if he makes music again or not, but if he does, it better be on par with Aske or Filosofem if it's released under the Burzum banner. I am surprised he's being released so soon, considering his parole was denied again this past June.

Maybe not escaping from prison, but it certainly sounds like he was at least trying to escape his sentence. From Wikipedia: "He was found riding in a stolen Volvo car, which, according to the media, contained an unloaded AG3 automatic rifle, a handgun, numerous large knives, a gas mask, camouflage clothing, a laptop, a compass, a Global Positioning System, various maps and a fake passport"

Varg being released from jail isn't nearly as amazing as it sounds. He hasn't been relevant in the black metal scene for a long time, and frankly he made quite a few enemies anyway. I like the early Burzum stuff but Varg dug his own grave. (No pun intended.) I do give Varg credit though: his actions are what got me into black metal in the first place, when my sister had me listen to the Nordic Metal: Tribute to Euronymous CD that Necropolis Records put out after Varg killed him. It's basically a black metal compilation where bands hailed Euronymous as a pioneer and declared they wanted to kill Varg when he got out of jail (and the CD itself has an image of him and the word "Anti-oval office" over it.) I was fascinated by that whole Norwegian story and I never looked back.

It doesn't get more atmospheric than Summoning. Nokturnal Mortum's earlier poo poo (Twilightfall, Lunar Poetry) should be right up your alley, too. Their later releases are NSBM, so if you're not into that kind of thing, you might want to avoid them. Drudkh would be another good choice.

Come now, it's very simple music (for simple people hurr), but I think they showed a strong sense of melody on Two Hunters, which is quite appealing to me. It really is simple though, I can't think of another BM band that I can pick up a guitar and learn the guitar lines by ear seemingly instantly...

Caerus posted:Well, there is no life sentence in Norway, not even nominally. It is, however, possible to be sentenced to "forvaring" (i.e. a form of custody) above and beyond the regular prison sentence. Up to five years can be doled out at a time, and it can be renewed indefinitely, theoretically lasting for the rest of the perpetrator's life. This is technically not so much a punishment, but more of a protective/preventative act by the court. It is used only in cases where the perpetrator is considered likely to be a major danger to society (repeat-offending muderers, arsonists etc.)
