Morbid Florist posted:Definitely some black'n'roll going on but luckily they're doing it better than Satyricon ever will. This is what I was pretty much what I was thinking last night after listening to Welcome Farewell for the first time, yet I'll never confirm or deny it. I'm anticipating the new Satyricon to sound something like a black metal version of The White Stripes. Satyr has a tremendous hard on for them and he isn't afraid to experiment, drastically change up the sound of the band and musically take them into a new direction. The Canadian band Chapel is still my current fix for black 'n' roll. SATAN!!!

You'd think after 4 awful albums back to back he'd realize he's not good at experimenting. At least do that poo poo under a different band name instead of ruining an ok legacy. I can't listen to nemesis divina without thinking about what they've become.

Age of Nero was OK for a few songs like Commando, Black Crow on a Tomb Stone and The Wolfpack, but I kind of felt like the album had about 3 chords across the whole thing.

Someone in one of the metal threads posted about the new Sacriphyx album streaming in full on the NWN bandcamp, I can't find the original post, so I'm going to post it again in the BM thread because it scratches the itch for old school Rotting Christ worship really loving well. If the person who originally posted the link to it sees this, thank you. Listen, the second track is particularly good

I somehow missed a new Fifteen Dead release on the end of January. It's a split that, sadly, only has 1 Fifteen Dead track and it's the exact same version of Antitheist that was on their previous EP. The other band on the split however, Wölfe, is what I've been looking for ages. Raw, thrashy black metal meets old-school grindcore with really crazy vocals. The whole split is available for streaming at: http://www.cvltnation.com/the-wolfefifteen-dead-split/ edit: Their demo in it's entirety is also available for streaming, it's an absolute monster: http://www.cvltnation.com/untitledwolfe-i-review/ Bloodmobile fucked around with this message at 15:26 on Feb 18, 2013 |

Teitanblood, Muknal, Embrace of Thorns, Necros Christos, Vasaeleth. More atmospheric but Vassafor is amazing. You would probably like Antediluvian as well. e: Cruciamentum has GM members, so yeah. Oldstench fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Feb 18, 2013 |

Generally speaking most new death metal has elements of that sound in it now. Drowned, Sonne Adam, Necros Christos, Dead Congregation, Venenum, Ignivomous, Disma, Ataraxy, Dominus Xul, Necroblood, Whore (from sweden), Grave Wax, Necrowretch, Profaner, Herpes, Blaspherian, Swallowed, Grave Ritual, Ascended, Burial Invocation, Morbus Chron (early stuff) etc etc Some other stuff that doesn't really fit but is good too: Cerekloth, Entrapment, Eroded, Bastard Priest. I'd grab the goat molestor demo too. Also try old Tiamat and some of the older greek bands, there's similarities. [edit] Since I'm recommending metal of death, listen to these bands or die screaming. And these. The Clit Avoider fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Feb 18, 2013 |

Thank you goons, that's a hefty chunk of bands, and inevitably my playlist for the week.  Straight off the bat; I like what I've heard of Desolate Shrine, Maveth and Embrace of Thorns. I'll start digging into the rest at work tomorrow. Much appreciated.

I like it, but it feels like there's something missing that Circle The Wagons, FOAD, etc all had. I can't put my finger on it yet. Most of their newer albums take me a few spins before I bow before them and hopefully this one's like that. I've only heard it once through but so far there's no song I'd throw on automatically to sell someone on it. Maybe that's it, no stand out WOW song. They're all good but there's no Too Old Too Cold relentlessness, no awesome jam-out like Stylized Corpse... (ok Come Warfare kinda has one) It's also only 6 songs  I like it, but I hope it grows on me more. edit: I guess Leave No Cross Unturned is their full out assault song but since that was the preview track I kinda feel like we heard the best poo poo already. Honestly I was kinda hoping for at least half the songs to be this good. Morbid Florist fucked around with this message at 17:26 on Feb 19, 2013 |

It isn't even a Darkthrone album, except in name only. It's pretty much a split CD between a modern incarnation of Isengard and Nocturno Culto.

I really feel like this is the album they've been wanting to make since, The Cult Is Alive. It's an amalgamate of punk/crust/black/metal. Free of limitations by following any one sub-genre by playing the music they are fans of. I respect the hell out of them for doing this. True, time will eventually tell, but I initially feel like it's probably the best thing they've done since Panzerfaust.

I agree with both sentiments but right now it's coming off definitely like a split between Culto solo and Isengard (even though Isengard was blacker than this) This is one big loving departure though, mostly due to the vocals in my opinion. Valkyrie....if it wasn't for the signature riffing you'd have to think twice before calling it Darkthrone. I enjoy it but I'm not gonna lie, I want more Cult Is Alive/FOAD

There's barely even the gently caress you sneer going on, let alone outright hostility in the vocals. Dare I say you could almost call this extremely hard rock? I'm ashamed of myself for even thinking it Musically speaking, Culto's songs are better but Fenriz' are the ones that get any headbanging/air drums

I must say, when Fenriz's vocals kick in, I must have this really big dumb smile across my face. I can appreciate neither of them giving two fucks what their vocals sound like on this album. Creative bliss! Yeah, I agree, it reflects a lot on what he did in Isengard, but doesn't that kinda make sense? I think it has something to do with him growing older (early 40's?). Not that he's mellowing out or anything, but just the fact that he's producing the music purely on the discretion of what he likes. Regardless of what a record label or fan base says a Darkthrone album should sound like. There has to be something incredible satisfying for an established artist to be able to do that in today's music industry. Not to mention rare. I kinda feel like the whole album is a tribute to the music they grew up listening to in the 80's (Manilla Road anyone?) and a big gently caress YOU to modern metal. Fenriz, the champion of "Old Metal"!

After giving the new Darkthrone a few spins, I really enjoy the hell out of it. As most people have stated so far, it's still a departure in a lot of ways. Despite that, every time Fenriz comes on I just laugh and start headbanging. It's just so goddamn entertaining and I can't help but like it. I dare say that they can do no wrong, departures and all.

I'll be seeing them in about a month. I'm sure Inquisition will get 30 to 45 minutes and Marduk will get at least an hour, but why couldn't they have left Moonspell in Portugal?

Seriously why is moonspell even on this? Did they take some br00tal turn in the 10 years since I last listened to them? I won't lie, I liked them up until their 2nd or 3rd album, but in my mind they have as much in common with Marduk as Alcest does. I guess the singer did have a mean bark back in the day. edit: trying to get in gear for the show, listening to Serpent Sermon. This is loving good. I may even say I like it more than most of what Marduk's put out. Slower, menacing, not just a total wall of blast beats
