FOAD is what metal is supposed to be. So awesome. Anyway yeah, black metal. New Mutiilation is the best BM album so far this year.

You should get the first two albums. Infinitely better and both are classics. About Sigh, their new album isn't even remotely black metal, but yeah they're great. Everything they've done is awesome and original.

mr.vj posted:I'm also going to say that the beginning of "Carving a Giant" off of "Ad Majorem Sathanas Gloriam" is probably one of the best things black metal has to offer.  You're a crazy guy to think that, haha.I guess i'm alone in liking the straightforward super raw BM bands? I never hear talk of them around these forums

barthelme posted:french black metal continually surprises me. not only do you have the peste noire/alcest/amesours axis and deathspell omega (even though I didn't dig "Fas" as much as "Kenose" or their contribution to "crushing the holy trinity") in the past there was an extremely fertile scene centered upon vlad tepes/mutiilation/belketre. French BM is absolutely amazing. Probably the best around. LLN has gotten way too trendy but there's definitely great music that came from it. Have you heard Oubliette? They're not French but have heavily French BM influenced music. Next to Basilisk it's my favorite BM. Very hard to find though. There's only around one rip on the internet and the only way to buy the two tapes is through todestrieb records. Kilometers Davis fucked around with this message at 19:32 on Nov 15, 2007 |

DB_Cooper posted:I definetly like their last couple records that went on a sort of punk detour along with the new one which is sort of a fun 80s homage. This post sums up my thoughts entirely. Any punk hating in the BM scene is ridiculous to the point of idiocy. At least respect how important punk music was to the genre. About the scene, you nailed it.

brightfield posted:Can someone actually name a single "hipster" listening to WITTR? I don't really think of myself as a hipster, but I listen to a lot of things - one of them being black metal. I also listen to indie rock - does that taint my opinion of BM? Ridiculous. It's mainly a label for the people who don't know much about BM. There's tons around. Most "hipsters" are labeled that because they listen to stuff like Dark Funeral, Leviathan, Funeral Mist, Dimmu Borgir, WITTR, etc and don't dig deep into the music. On the hating side, it's mostly the people who practically hate everything but the raw BM bands (myself included in this). The difference here is that even though I think that stuff is gay/boring as hell, i'm not going to sit and whine about people's tastes, hah.

It's not really about the way you dress or what you really listen to, it's mainly knowledge based. Today I wore a Green and tan polo shirt and green cargo pants. I also listen to tons of hip-hop

What do you guys say about me making a BM compilation and uploading it? Without sounding like too much an elitist human being, I have searched the BM genre very, very deep and know of more quality bands than most people here. I figure I might be able to get some of you into great bands. So yes/no?

I've got 35 files of metal coming up in an hour or hopefully sooner. Most of it is straight black metal but I threw in some stuff that is either related/loving awesome or pre-black metal/loving awesome. Also I put in some of the classic bands in case you want to pass it on to someone new to BM.

Gr31lly posted:I'm not trying to completely poo poo over that list, but when you come out with statements like "I have searched the BM genre very, very deep and know of more quality bands than most people here" you had better be able to pick more than just surface-entrance music. That's not really surface entrance music. It's not incredibly deep sure, but much deeper than most people dig into the genre. brightfield posted:Nihil, the only change I would make to your mix is to add at least one track from Summoning, especially given that you have a few other LOTR-inspired bands/tracks on there. Summoning is the creator/master of that realm IMHO. Summoning is too off of the BM genre to really be included. If I did like a folk metal/something I'd include them for sure.

I generally won't listen to anything under 192. It's perfect for 99% of the music I listen to. As for the guy looking for Summoning like music, look into Nazgul (Ita) and Mirkwood (U.S.). Kilometers Davis fucked around with this message at 19:16 on Jan 4, 2008 |

Pixelponny posted:Apologies: couldn't read all of the topic but; does anyone know Bewitched - Diabolical Desecration; which they released in 1996 ? Before I wasn't into the "Black 'n Roll" style, I thought this album was really exceptional. I didn't use the "Black 'n Roll" term to define it, but I was mentioning that it's "kind of speed metal with black metal influences". You must, and I mean must, get At The Gates Of Hell. It's one of my favorite metal albums and is very essential in my opinion.

There's a new album out, My Firstborn Will Surely Be Blind, and it's actually composed entirely of cover songs, but if you didn't know that, you probably wouldn't ever know by listening. It's a tremendously interesting sound. Sevenfold Songs Of Death is awesome even though it's really gimmicky. Have you heard his project Wolfmangler? It's hilarious.
