Dyna Soar posted:Or the fact that the only two genres left that are unlistenable to most people are noise and black metal, and black metal is easier to stomach. But saying you listen to Merzbow makes you sound soooo much cooler than saying you listen to Bathory or something.  fake edit-- I hate hipsters double fake edit-- I love WitTR

het posted:What the gently caress are you talking about? Who's saying this? (and so help me if you say "hipsters" I'm going to wash your mouth out with soap) I'm not endorsing it, I was just making a tongue-in-cheek response based on people I'm acquainted with in my city. I assume there are the same type of people all over the US.

Midian and Dusk... are two of the only three CoF albums I still listen to, so that's pretty cool to hear. I really liked what Satyricon did on My Skin Is Cold, so I'm pumped about the new album.

02-6611-0142-1 posted:It's an awesome album cover, at least. i loved everything up to and including Now, Diabolical, but the My Skin is Cold EP was really boring. I haven't read the black metal threads in a while, but I must be the only person that liked My Skin is Cold. It's the first thing I've really liked from them since Nemesis Divina, even if it is 100% different. Also, I heard Nachtmystium for the first time on GBSFM tonight and liked it a lot. Where's the best place to start with them? Count Thrashula fucked around with this message at 09:55 on Sep 3, 2008 |

lordblytzkrieg posted:So, I play WoW and someone I play with just told me about this black metal band who did a couple songs based on WoW. I gotta say, I really dig them. Its by a band called Sorg Uten Tårer its called "For the Horde" and they also do a song about the Warlock class called "The Demonologist." I was expecting crap for a song based on WoW (given the other bands that are) but that's actually really good. Count Thrashula fucked around with this message at 06:04 on Sep 13, 2008 |

Wow, PYHA's stuff is really... depressing. It's like Gris without all the French smarm. Listening to it and thinking about how he's now serving in the N. Korean in the first steps of what will probably be a terrible adult life, I just can't help but feel all  .I really want to buy this CD in hopes of some of the proceeds going to him, though I know it probably won't. Still, a CD this... peculiar... belongs in my collection. edit-- Oops didn't realize the last post was mine too... double post woop.

Have you ever listened to Gris - Il Était une Forêt...? I mean come on, the singer starts CRYING on one song. I'd say that goes on the list  And yeah, I heard Abigail Williams and really liked them, and then went to their website and saw them. So... preconceived hipster "deathcore" whatever bullshit aside, their music is really good.

MALCOLM XTREME posted:I've never had any interest in black metal, until I heard Dimmu Borgir's "The Sacrilegious Scorn." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9cqKafnUrk Yeah, ICS Vortex has some awesome pipes on him. He also sang for Borknagar (on the album Quintessence) and Arcturus (everything after like 2003), so maybe you'd like those? Borknagar - Colossus - Bad sound quality, but you get the idea. A lot more folky than Dimmu Borgir, but still rad, in my opinion. A lot of their stuff is closer to black metal than this. Arcturus - Hufsa - Again, kinda folky metal, way more avant garde, not really black metal at all. But, it's got Vortex on vocals so hey  VVV I'm just throwing out stuff since he liked Vortex's vocals. I don't want to go on record as saying that either of these are good examples of black metal or are even good examples of the bands themselves. I don't even like Arcturus at all.

Razor posted:"Brutal" better describes death metal rather than black, i.e. Blood Red Throne is brutal death metal, and old Amorphis is death/doom or melodic death. Borknagar, in my mind, is progressive black. Brutal is a mindset not a genre

edit- fixed... Crosspost with the black metal thread A little background info, from the Evighet thread in GBS: Mudflap McDirt posted:I'm currently recording a new album for my black metal project. There isn't many good black metal here in Russia, but I'm hoping my music can stand up. Thanks to the OP I'll probably post it here when it's finished. Sjurygg posted:I'd loving love to hear more metal from Russian about Baba Yaga eating young virgins and flaming knights bringing the dawn through the woods Mudflap McDirt posted:Only for you, I am now writing a song about this very subject. It will be dedicated to all goons. So, with that, I wrote and recorded a song about Baba Yaga.   Ensrug - "Vuki ot lesa" (Wolves from the Woods) Ensrug on Myspace I think you can download from Tindeck... have the mp3, enjoy it, it's for you goons anyway, no one else. Like I said, I am working on a full length recording now (and I think the songs are higher quality than this one - I spent maybe a day on Vuki ot lesa), which I will probably leak via SA when it's done. This song was mostly for me to learn digital recording techniques, since I am completely used to analog machines. Ensrug has been around for a while, but I am just now introducing it to the internet. Enjoy the metal. Count Thrashula fucked around with this message at 02:05 on Dec 9, 2009 |

dead56k posted:I know, I know. The worst offense. Their imagery, album art, lyrics, persona, ideologies, everything - are related in some part to the forest, to old pagan druidic philosophies, that sort of thing. They could very well be singing about fairies. That said, I think I need to go back and listen to Malevolent Grain a few times. It's so relaxing.

Sue Denim posted:What would you guys consider to be the essential black metal albums of 2009? Well, maybe not essential, but some of my favorites this year: Gorgoroth - Quantos Possunt Ad Satanitatem Trahunt Skeletonwitch - Breathing the Fire Belphegor - Walpurgis Rites- Hexenwahn Marduk - Wormwood *Nazxul - Iconoclast *Drudkh - Microcosmos Anaal Nathrakh - In The Constellation Of The Black Widow Goatwhore - Carving Out The Eyes Of God Old Man's Child - Slaves Of The World *Oranssi Pazuzu - Muukalainen Puhuu Wolves In The Throne Room - Black Cascade Wolves In The Throne Room - Malevolent Grain *Blut Aus Nord - Memoria Vetusta II - Dialogue With The Stars Vreid - Milorg That should keep you pretty busy for a while. The four with stars beside them I would consider essential for the year because they're so damned good.

Noktorn posted:Actually the members of Gorgoroth are most likely pedophiles. Actually not a joke. There was a story a while back about a Mexican concert promoter getting asked where they could get child prostitutes and this was corroborated by a friend of mine who is close friends with a Colombian booking agent. Their main request: five 12-year-old boys. Actually I find this hard to believe Actually private message posted:Any thoughts on the new Nokturnal Mortum? I'm not sure how I feel about the clean vocals in one song, but after 2 listens the album seems really good. And they finally have a drummer that doesn't sound exactly like a drum machine. I finally got around to checking this out, it's loving great. Not the same as their older stuff at all, but really good.
