lordblytzkrieg posted:New Nachtmystium is really good. There are some weird rear end tracks that sound 80's synth rock-ish, but its still really heavy and a good metal album. The one traditional black metal song they do have is loving amazing as well. Hell yes! I am loving it so far. Purists stay away. Can't wait to see them with Enthroned and Destroyer 666.

I must say that's a pretty affordable price for a place like that. It's not as deep in the woods as I'd thought either, it's an easy commute to several places where one might actually find a job worth having, etc. In fact it looks like a pretty great place to raise a family if one is into the whole rural thing (and when the oldest kid hits the teenage years you could move him into the "cabin" so he can listen to whatever devil music he prefers and masturbate in peace).

As far as I know, very few of the Barbarian Wrath releases actually sell out the 666 copies. The ones that do (some Countess releases and both Megiddo full lengths that I know of) will get a second unnumbered pressing of 1000 copies. I think that Megiddo's The Devil and the Whore even got a third pressing of another 1000 because there was a lot of demand for it. I dont think sales are really that high although it has been a while since I last talked with the esteemed Black Goat.

Well, apparently 600 copies sold is the breakeven point when he releases cds and then he just chose to do 666 instead for kicks. Keep in mind that this is a label run out of the house of one guy and his wife in Bavaria. Or I guess I should say that the one guy runs the label and the wife runs her own label.

Hey, just thought I'd throw out some bands from my neck of the woods: Ontario, Canada. WOLVEN ANCESTRY.  Sudbury, Ontario. On Encyclopaedia Metallum, they call themselves "melodic black metal". Their first album, The Wrath of Gaia, had ridiculously long song titles, like, "And Gaia's Wrath of A Thousand Forms of Vehement Torture Will Be Brought Upon Ourselves, the Self-Destructing Human". The second album, "Silence of the Boreal", not so much. And yes, the frontman "Lord Defiler" does wear that horned wolf headdress during shows. Haven't seen it myself, but apparently he cuts himself on stage, too. VIDEO: "A Bloodline of Immortal Passion Bestowed the Harmony of Man and Wolf" VIDEO: Live cover of Satyricon's "Mother North" WOODS OF YPRES  London, Ontario? Windsor? Their wikipedia page calls them "blackened doom metal", but they aren't straight-up black metal at all. There's a weird, grunge/folk thing going on with their music, which isn't really a bad thing. I don't know how to describe it, except that I kind of want to hear a Neil Young cover of this song: "Your Ontario Town is a Burial Ground" I just left one of those burial grounds, so I've listened to this maybe too much. It is awesome. Last Eunuch Horn fucked around with this message at 07:22 on Jun 19, 2010 |

I really can't get into Woods of Ypres. I sort of want to like them, but the one record I have just sounds tired, defeated and dull. There are moments of originality and ingenuity, but not enough to outweigh the overwhelming mediocrity of the general proceedings.

So apparently this reunited Von is a loving joke. I guess they played their first new show last Sunday at the Armageddon Festival in London and it was so bad that everyone that just walked out. It embarrassed them so bad that they dropped off Hole in the Sky.quote:Von has decided to cancel their appearance at Hole in the Sky due to reasons explained in the statement below. Judge for yourself http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTD8CNpxhJc To me It sounds like they're trying to go gothenburg and mix it with Deftones vocals. I don't know but it's loving terrible. From what I understand, the original dudes in the band saw that people were making money off all the bootlegs and wanted a piece of the action. They've been out of the metal for years and it shows.

Everything that I've listened to from him since then has left me feeling insulted thinking "Did they really put that stuff out with a straight face?" You're quite right about the Neil Young point, though, but it shouldn't be a cover song. He, or someone in that style, should have been the one to do this song. Folk/Rock is a much more fertile ground for this kind of soul searching stuff. It doesn't belong in Metal *strokes spiked wristband* RHTITE fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Jun 19, 2010 |

RHTITE posted:Stuffs Meh. You're right. I just relate to it personally, as most of my life was spent as an angry little small-town loner. After about 4 songs, I'm a little tired of the introspection and stuff, and throw on some Hellhammer. Literally tired even. I was wide awake and now I'm yawning. Rat bastards. e: On further reflection, both of the bands I have posted relate philosophically to traditional black metal, but that's about it. That Wolven Ancestry song is about a werewolf, and Gaia is a Greek goddess. Woods of Ypres isn't exactly rebelling against a Christian establishment. Buuuuut, both express isolation/solitude, some link with the natural world, angsty loving around in a cold, dark forest. Last Eunuch Horn fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Jun 20, 2010 |

Wikipedia posted:Unblack metal is viewed as an ideological group within black metal that depicts Christianity positively. There is no method to play black metal in a Christian way. Hence, unblack metal incorporates black metal's fast tempos, shrieked vocals, highly distorted guitars played with tremolo picking, double-kick drumming, and unconventional song structure. However, unblack artists have performed in a variety of black metal styles. Garry Sharpe-Young's 2001 encyclopedia A-Z of Black Metal states that "Topping the lot are Christian 'Unblack' acts who for all intents and purposes look like, sound like and employ the imagery of Black Metal whilst hidden in the unpenetrable vocal growls and distortions are the proclamations of Jesus Christ What. the. fugdlkfjgl;kdjfa;oeifa;dsfs;lkdfjklsf  I think I just pulled something in my brain.

Unblack Metal ranks up their with Red Anarchist Black Metal as two of the stupider concepts to have ever come up from the moron brigade of the Metal world. Seriously, the ideals are like trying to mix matter and antimatter. Also, the only two bands worth a poo poo in Black Metal whose vocalists also play the drums are the following: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLEYvjUyixc - Absu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrRj7ejHFTY - Profanatica

Do people really feel the need to bring this poo poo up every two months? A Catholic priest is up doin his thing on Sunday morning, giving a wonderful sermon when all of a sudden he starts talking passionately about the practice of ritual cat sodomy. His congregation is aghast as he goes into great detail about the spiritual healing that can be attained from the violation of various breeds of long haired cats compared to the lesser gains from short haired breeds. I think most people would consider that as something that has no place in the church, and the priest would be run out of town on a rail, mocked and soon forgotten. Much the same way that all of these gimmick bands have been throughout the entire history of the genre. They just never have anything worthwhile to offer. By the by, I didn't say anything about Satan. Almost all "Satanic" Black Metal bands suck to.

Well, there's two major motivations for starting one of these "unblack" bands. The bands claim to be either "white" or "unblack". White metal would be the people who want to dress up like heathens, infiltrate their space, and convert them. Unblack metal would be the ones with big boners over their Chosen status, and want to be seen as persecuted creatures. They're like, "Yeah, people hate me because Jesus loves me. I am so loving badass and rebellious." Both are hilarious. e: the only thing more hilarious would be Saudi Royal Gangsta Rap. e2: I want to post aboot a thrash band, but is there a thread for that? Will I be slain if I bring it up here? Hellwuzzat fucked around with this message at 09:37 on Jun 22, 2010 |
