You're all wrong because the new Countess album is the best album of the year.

I was pretty surprised, I liked Spawn of Steel but Holocaust of the God Believers didn't do much for me and I kind of figured this would be more of the same. But Blazing Flames of War is pretty great and changes the sound up a bit (though there's still no question that you're listening to Countess). Countess and Darkthrone are going to be up there for me this year.

I also like Darkestrah's Epos though I think I preferred Embrace of Memory's more digestible track lengths to Epos's monolithic 33 minute track with lengthy ambient intro and outro.

Yeah, I'm digging this too even though I don't think most people in here would approve.

I don't think Wolves in the Throne Room are bad, they just didn't seem all that great to me, so it's kind of weird to see them getting all this press.

So I want to get into Darkthrone but don't know where to begin, and I'm told that their early/mid/late periods are all very different (aren't they like a crust punk band now?). Is the only route in A Blaze In the Northern Sky, or is there another door to take? I'm not huge into BM in general, so anything that's super lo-fi or cheesy is probably a bad route. Punk or death inspired is good. Help?

The Goat Problem is right that if you're looking for punk-inspired, you should probably check The Cult Is Alive. Their newest, F.O.A.D., is also good though it's more old school metal-inspired than punk (granted a lot of those inspirations are thrash). For what it's worth, I like Transilvanian Hunger a whole lot more than A Blaze in the Northern Sky.

Has anyone here heard of Kromlek? I stumbled upon them a few days ago, and I'm surprised they haven't gotten much attention anywhere. They're basically a German black metal/folk band, and I can't get enough of them.

Yeah, they're really great. You should check out their first EP Kveldridhur, the track Kromlek off of that is arguably their best song, but I thought their 2007 LP Strange Rumours... Distant Tremors was very good too, and branched out a little bit (the production makes it a lot more epic). They're really the best band in terms of taking the Finntroll humppa metal formula and doing something interesting with it without losing too much of the rollicking fun of it. Korpiklaani's good but I like how Kromlek use more elaborate composition.

I'll have to check Joyless. I like Lifelover and Amesoeurs a lot (though I imagine when there's new Amesoeurs material released they'll bear even less resemblance to black metal than Alcest or Lifelover).

Jesus Christ, we get it, you have to comment on every post you don't like, grow the gently caress up and put me on ignore if you don't like it.

In general, I don't really see much benefit to, when someone's talking about a band or style you've never heard of, going "ugh, sounds gay" or something like that. If the thread were overrun with people going on about Alcest, I could certainly see speaking up and adding a counterpoint, but in general, whether you like a band or consider them valid really doesn't add much unless you want to actually have a deeper discussion than "they suck" "no they don't".

This is how you make a forum better. The way you make it worse is by ignoring lovely posts and not separating the wheat from the chaff.

To be honest, since black metal these days seems to be full mostly of trend-following money grabbers there should be plenty depressive rock/shoegaze/black metal albums out in the future anyway.

What I'm really hoping for is that there'll be some bands that will cop Amesoeurs' "urban black metal" sound (as Neige put it) from the first two tracks of Ruines Humaines since their future stuff is going to be more along the lines of Faiblesse des Sens (not that I don't love that track and eagerly anticipate the next Amesoeurs release).

It really kind of makes me mad that everyone who's mentioned Wolves In the Throne Room's newest album has made some sort of disclaimer that people here don't/won't like it, haha. I think it's a really loving solid album, regardless of what hipsters namedrop them and DSO/Alcest these days, IMO it's still fuckin' great.

I really don't think it's that solid, and the (less metal) parts that appeal to non-metal-fans are the ones that I find to be weak, so it makes discussing it kind of annoying. You get lots of people with little to no perspective on black metal talking about how amazing something is that I don't think is much above average.

Necro Beer posted:

Also I'm listening to Alcest for the first time right now and I would really like an explanation as to why they are being discussed in this thread. It sounds like post-rock/indie and I really have to grasp straws to figure out where the black metal influence is.

It's not metal but a lot of the sound is informed by black metal, between the fuzzy production and occasional double-bass and somewhat aggressive drumming (though ironically I think the drumming is more metal but less aggressive and driving than some normal shoegaze). It's a side-project of a black metal artist and it's pretty common for side-projects to be discussed in threads even when the side-project doesn't fit the genre exactly.

Euphoria 5L posted:

He's got the black metal cred, and he comes from a black metal background, so I'd say it's black metal, albeit black metal that sounds like shoegaze.

This kind of confuses me. It doesn't sound like black metal, why would you ever call it black metal? Even Neige himself says it's not black metal.

It's sort of his best work if you don't like his aesthetic though. It's like saying Soulside Journey is Darkthrone's best album. Sure, I can see someone liking that over their others, but it's basically saying "I don't like Darkthrone very much".

It probably doesn't need to be said, but I think the new Amesoeurs track is great. It's definitely in the same vein as "Faiblesse des Sens", including vocals by Audrey Sylvain. I'm really looking forward to the full album.

I think it's decent but not really in the same ballpark with Faiblesse des Sens in terms of quality. It'll make a fine middle track on a full length but I'm hoping for something more catchy and more emotive.

Nobody does this. Nobody is admitting to doing this. Stop making poo poo up so you can respond with "Man, I just don't get people like that".

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)

WitTR alternate between boring ambient poo poo and some decent black metal but they've gotten a shitload of press, even in mainstream outlets. Unfortunately, that press is only half-related to their music, the rest is the image, the hippie philosophy bullshit, etc.. So, yeah, it's sort of annoying to see a mediocre band get lots of publicity for stuff unrelated to their music, when much better bands in the same genre languish in relative obscurity.

This publicity blitz also results in the situation where there are people who don't typically listen to metal who will go on and on about the band while being largely ignorant of what other black metal is out there (and show little interest in learning more), which is pretty obnoxious.

I dunno, I quite like the "boring ambient poo poo" and the general direction they're taking their music, and I think the bm parts are on par with the classics.

You say that they're mediocre like it's an universal truth, but on the contrary lots and lots of people who know their black metal agree with me that WITTR are an ace band and pay no attention to the press they get or where they live.

I'm aware that there are people who listen to black metal otherwise and also like WitTR, I'm just trying to explain why there is hostility towards the effusive praise of them.

qpzil posted:

Well, I'll skirt around the word then. I know a number of people that would, for instance, buy band t-shirts of bands they don't even really listen to, own CDs that they've never listened to, etc., just because of the name. The person I quoted was mentioning two genres of music that were "unlistenable" - those same types of kids I just mentioned would say they listen to these "unlistenable" bands/artists to seem, I don't know, like they have some sort of deep appreciation for this incredibly niche genre. It's the same reason they buy band t-shirts or CDs of bands they hardly even like, it puts them on some higher level with their peers. The same reason people say "yeah, well, I listened to them before they got big" - it's all street credit.

And I'm saying that the stereotype of only liking bands because it's cool, wearing shirts of bands they don't listen to, and caring solely about "scene cred" is largely a bullshit fairy tale. These people don't actually exist in the way that you described them.

Honestly, lists of 20 bands with no descriptions are of really limited usefulness. If you're going to post huge lists like that, try to put in a few words for each band; mention what they sound like, relate them to another band the person might have heard of, something to separate them from the 19 other bands you listed. In general I don't think anyone has any problems finding a list of 20 black metal bands they don't know anything about, the idea of recommendations is to give people a place to start.

Gvaz posted:

Wolves in the Throne Room (gently caress what goons say, this band is good)

SA is actually pretty evenly divided on the band. A lot of people really love it, a lot of people don't think it's anything special. It would be far more useful to do what I said above, compare them to other bands, describe their sound, something other than "Some hate them but I like them!! :colbert:

", because that really tells the reader absolutely nothing unless they already have a good idea of your taste.

The whole situation is just a total mess. There's not much else to it.

He burned churches to the ground and killed a man. He was convicted for those crimes, sentenced to prison time, had that prison time reduced, and still he tried to escape; I don't see how there's any argument over the justification of his parole being turned down. This is pretty straight-forward.

Well, the argument has been that he is being treated harsher than other convicts in a similar position. Even when taking into account the escape attempt he would normally have been released by now. I personally think he should spend a lot more time in prison, but the reasoning behind this should be that he was convicted for a brutal murder and arson. It should not be that he is some nazi satanist boogeyman, which certain people in the Department of Criminal Justice seem to think.

To be honest it's hard for me to judge as an American because in the US these crimes would be punished far more harshly (even if we ignored the fact that he was burning churches, multiple arson counts + homicide would be significant) so I can't help but think that he's getting off awfully easy just with the sentencing he received.

I think most black metal fans would enjoy the black metal stylings of "sewage disposal" based band Stiny Plamenu.

http://www.myspace.com/diveintothewastewater

Their lyrics are based on some sort of sewer mythology that the band apparently made up, and they're mostly in some gay foreign language (lolol) so you can't understand them anyway, but they feature characters like The Sewage Disposal Lord, Lady of the Waterworks, Son of the Manhole Lids, and The Cesspool Master. The actual music is pretty good, very fast blastbeat stuff with good melodies and whatnot. I highly recommend it.

Zelezo Krvaci was great as was their earlier work but their most recent album was an enormous letdown. It didn't grab me as much as earlier stuff and worse they started adding stupid poo poo like completely out-of-place female vocals. ISTR pseudo-clean male vocals too but I'm not certain.

Their first two albums are terrific and the split's okay but I was really let down by Fimbulvinter. It just didn't have the character that Towards the Firmaments Verge of Life had, it just ran together too much. The Branikald cover was the best song on the album as I recall.

I don't get it. When I listen to the later Enslaved albums (from ELD on) I hear a band that stumbled in finding their inspiration and skill again after two amazing albums in Vikingligr Veldi and Frost, made a freaking savage Speed Metal album (Blodhemn) and then realized that they needed to go in a new direction the same way Immortal did, releasing Mardraum. They certainly haven't been great since then, but they haven't been entirely terrible either, and I haven't heard anything that would make me question the purity of their intent, as I understand it. Drudkh, on the other hand, after 2 decent but redundant albums in Autumn Aurora and Swan Road, showed that their well ran dry of Burzum and Graveland influences, so they scrambled through half thought out folk and icky Black Metal before finally publically whoring themselves out to prevailing trend of the day for lack of solid ideas with this new album.

I never thought much of Drudkh's previous stuff but I definitely get a bit of a subdued late-era Enslaved (like circa Ruun) vibe on this new album, like that crossed with Neige's stuff.

I'm actually enjoying the new Drudkh but mostly because it's not like their previous stuff, which did nothing for me and seemed really unremarkable. This new album isn't mind-blowing and runs together a bit but it's not too bad overall.

I just love their mouth harp, too . The carnyx is one I'm waiting to hear in some folky battle funtime metal, though. I'd take that over the boing harp.

Reminds me of the horns at the beginning of Kroda's Pathways of Fate
