So I was at the bar the other night, and my buddy Miras gave me a flash stick with about 8 gigs of music on it. Here is a complete list of everything: 1349 – Discography Autopsy – Severed Survival, Torn From the Grave Bathory – Discography Blackened, Vols 1 – 5 Blackmetallilitto – Various Breath of Sorrows – Through Darkness to Battle I Ride Children of Bodom – Bodom Covers Dark Funeral – Discography Darkmoon Warrior - In Fundis Inferiorum Darkthrone – Discography Enslaved – Vertebrae Gospel of the Horns – Realm of the Damned Immortal – Pure Holocaust Khors – The Flame of Eternity’s Decline Marduk – Dark Endless, Those of the Unlight, Opus Nocturne Samael – Blood Ritual, Cermony of Opposites and Rebellion Satyricon – Now, Diabolical Tartaros – The Grand Psychotic Castle, The Red Jewel Most of the stuff I’ve listened to and enjoyed, the exception being Samael. I threw the 1349, Marduk, Dark Funeral, Darkmoon Warrior, Darkthrone, Marduk, and Satyricon on my iPod. What’s the consensus on Autopsy, the Blackened and Blackmetallilitto comps, Gospel of the Horns, Khors, and Tartaros?

Ceremony of Opposites and Rebellion are loving awesome  You weren't given Panzer Division Marduk? That's a serious omission.

Autopsy is loving amazing, but has little to do with BM (get mental funeral too), I generally dislike comps so I'm not going to comment on those, GotH is awesome, Khors is basically a shittier version of all the bands its members are otherwise involved in, and Tartaros is plain out weird, from what I remember the red jewel is very good at giving people headaches.

Tartaros is pretty cool. And yeah, even though it has nothing to do with BM make sure you hear Autopsy's Mental Funeral. Find the non-remastered version if you can.

Cool, thanks for the feedback! I'm really digging the Marduk and Darkmoon Warrior stuff. Samael I found to be kind of boring, I don't know. This biggest problem I'm having is that these were apparently mostly acquired via  . A few of the albums are only partials, with the missing tracks labeled as "BC!." I'm not one to torrent, so I'm stuck with some incomplete albums. I'm not too worried, I'm treating the missing albums as warm-ups to see what I'll purchase. I think I'm going to pull the Samael from my iPod and replace it with GotH, as that is the one band I'm not really familiar with and have a full album. Good looking out guys!

Not Very Metal posted:Blackmetallilitto – Various You had the best Samael albums on there. Baphomet's Throne is sick. I can't remember exactly what's on blackmetalliliitto but iirc it's basically a Spinefarm release of their bands or licenses. I'm thinking it must be round about 1998 so it'd have stuff like Dimmu Borgir, Nemesis Divina-era Satyricon etc. on it. The Finnish bands on there are probably good. It probably has Beherit or Thy Serpent on there, and they're good raw black metal.

Their first couple of albums were kinda girly keyboard-laden black metal and they weren't particularly good. The last EP was a good deal darker and heavier and they broke up after that one, which is a shame. funeral fag fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Mar 11, 2009 |

I haven't listened to any Thy Serpent in yeeeeears and may be confusing them with some other finnish band (Enochian Crescent? Is that possible?) active around that time. 1998 happens to be the year I was exposed to the whole Finnish scene so... you know.

1349 - Hellfire is one of the better modern Black Metal releases if you ask me. Brutal Black Metal, if you will. I Am Abomination and Sculptor of Flesh make me rage uncontrollably!

Truthfully I only really can get into the first three songs on Hellfire, but those three alone are really I all I need to hear to love 1349.

I keep one and just one 1349 song - Hellfire, as it happens - on my mp3 player for those moments on my daily Tube commute when my absolute loathing for the scrabbling, shoving masses around me threatens to boil over. It's very effective for that.

1349 are pretty goddamn mediocre guys, and thinking they're good or even great is more of a testimony that you need to listen to more black metal than anything else. Early material is derivative of darkthrone, later work is marduk cloning. The reason for the progression in sound? They correctly identified the only reason the majority of people listen to them is to hear frost's drumming. Do yourself a favour and listen to Nox Intempesta, Enthroned, Antaeus, early Impaled Nazarene or even (yuck) Dark Funeral, or, shock horror, the bands they're apeing.

There is no reason not to have Antaeus' "De Pricipii Evangellikum," "Cut Your Flesh and Worship Satan," and "Blood Libels" in your collection at any given time.

There's a lot of snacks on the disc like Sigh, Tenebrarium Oratorium from the first Moonspell EP and of course Pagan Fears!

Well unlike WITTR they're not just a kind of a crappier version of other bands, they're pretty drat unique and pull off the post punk/dream pop meets black metal thing.

So that rules out Burzum, though I like the Burzum-worship on Diadem of 12 Stars. Same way, I like an actual band that plays actual instruments, rather than some one-man bedroom project with a bunch of VSTs and fuzz. Also, I thought Nathan was a nice guy. I guess it really is about taste and opinion and we've all got one blah blah. edit: Oh yeah and WITTR actually, you know, tour, so I get to hear atmospheric BM live and it's good every time.

Well, that was not really my opinion since I like Diadem and Two Hunters a lot. It's just what some of the more narrow-minded people in this thread seem to think. Besides, you'd think ecofascist black metal would go down pretty well with people who love regular fascist black metal.

Quick question for those that have heard it: Is the new Absu up to Tara's standards, or any good at all? PS: Any news on a possible Ne Obliviscaris full length yet? Their demo kicks so much rear end it's not even funny.

Dammit, I'm still kicking myself for not discovering Weakling earlier, it's been a couple of months now, and I can still say it's in my top 5 black metal albums ever.

While they draw on (non-exclusively) ecofascist tenets of a spiritual connection to nature, I don't think they have any inherent supremacy thinking underlying their philosophy. And that non-exclusivity is fundamental, as that spiritual connection and a conservationist/self-sufficiency ethic underlies pretty much all deep green and Naessian Deep Ecology thinking. And where WITTR emphasizes self-sufficiency, they also advocate withdrawal from overconsumptive society, not forcing a certain lifestyle on others. Of course, I could be wrong. I'm just going by what I've seen/read.

Can't recommend it enough! New Ne Obliviscaris should be coming this year, hopefully. They're working on it as we speak.

They explain some of their thinking in this Invisible Oranges Interview which is a pretty good read. It also has a full song from their new album.
