I think the music of Burzum is incredibly original and genre-defining, but its hard for me to listen to sometimes because of what I know about Varg Vikernes.

Filosofem is a kickass album though. So harsh and unforgiving.

Love Filosofem as well but I have to agree, Varg is a fucking lunatic. Not even because he killed Euronymous, Euronymous seemed to be just a huge pussy. But Varg's heathen ideals are just fucking dumb, he's racist, homophobic, and self-absorbed.

Not huge in to Black Metal but have been listening to it more often:

Mayhem's Chimera is also a pretty damn good album to check out but Gorgoroth's Under the Sign of Hell is easily my favorite

Archgoat - finnish black metal. one of the few bands that gets better with every release. They really blew me away at maryland death fest this year.



I love how the bass resonates in this song. The bass puts me into a trance where I contemplate my life as I know it.



Blasphemy is one of my favorite bands because they are so fucking weird. The production sounds like absolute shit but it has some sick twisted charm to it. Blackdeath all the way. Keep up the primitive blasting and really bad timing! brooootal! honestly this transformed my life



keep the primitive blasting blasting away at full force.

this thread makes me so happy!

NIFELHEIM IS THE SHIT

Nihill, Fell Voices and Ash Borer have been in my playlists for a while. I also adore Xasthur up-to-and-including Subliminal Genocide.

Really into Ash Borer (CANNOT WAIT for the new album), Fell Voices (split with Ash Borer fucking slays) and Deathspell Omega as of late (DROUGHT!!!!). And, of course, the Antediluvian that Skullservant posted (Through the Cervix of Hawaah is such a good album).

Also have to admit that I'm really into that whole perhaps-slightly-hip(ster) punky (musically and/or aesthetically) raw black metal thing. Y'know all those (American) bands that followed in the wake of/mine the same musical vein as Bone Awl. Ives, Willing Feet, Ancestors (the Mark McCoy one), Raspberry Bulbs, Horrid Cross (faves), etc. (uh this might have something to do with my not-really-ironic-at-all love for MYSTERY GUY HARDCORE)

Owl's Blood are pretty killer:

Nifelheim are rad! Per and Erik Gustavsson are more famous in Sweden for their love for Iron Maiden than they are for Nifelheim. They're known as Bröderna Hårdrock - The Hard Rock Brothers. There's a sweet documentary clip of them and they say some classic stuff. I can't find anything with English subtitles. Even if you don't watch the whole thing, 4:37 is classic.


Everything is quotable, but here are some classics

This quote is so good it gets un-NSFW'd
5:34 - (talking about girls) I usually do small tests some times, and put on their own albums, the heaviest that they have... they don't even know what the fuck they own themselves... once, there was this chick who said "what's that shit you've put on?" - I turned it off, and it was her own cd that she claimed she liked the day before, and then, I just think they're so dumb that I almost passed out



Oh yeah, a Nifelheim vid - Storm of the Reaper

Can't believe I haven't posted any of this yet! Trippy proggy black...

Arcturus, Borknagar, Solefald, Vintersorg, Isahn's solo stuff and to represent the world outside of Scandinavia, Unexpect and Ephel Duath


So much good music in this thread - going to keep me on a black metal bender for at least a week!

I'm not really a fan of the music but more-so the primitive nature and 'intent' of keeping things as basic as possible that these bands seem to share.

While we are on the subject of Youth Attack bands, I DO, however, enjoy Grinning Death's head:



Their most recent cassette was a fairly entertaining listen.

Yep, I quite like Grinning Death's Head too. The early stuff is good, if not exactly spectacular, but Golden Dawn, the most recent tape, is, I think, above average, and quite good.

Can't wait? It was released August 14th.

I have it. It's really good.

OH SHI--

It was supposed to be "cannot wait for the new album to arrive." Living halfway across the planet does mean occasionally long waits for stuff to arrive. Any day now, I hope.

Ah I see.

Yuh.

Is it as good as "Descended Lamentations" would lead me to believe?
