This is the biggest trend-hopping band in all of metal.

Yup

I was once watching an interview with DEMI LOVATO (my kids are fans of hers) on JIMMY FALLON where she was talking about being a metalhead.
I remember this was one of the bands she said she was into, along with stuff like Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, and I can't remember who else.

RAGE ON DEMI!!!!!!!

I will admit to hating Abigail Williams when I saw them open for Dark Funeral and Enslaved like five years ago and not following their career after that. But from what I have heard, they've changed their sound with each album...no real identity, no real depth.

Their latest album, "Becoming", is a masterpiece. I've listened to it almost daily for the past 5 months.

I know it's been cool to hate this band on principle, but I do also recommend checking out Becoming. Here's a track off it:

There are bands who do the sound of Becoming better than anything Mr Soceron can put out.

Anyone who hasnt checked out Wolves in the Throne Room, do so.

would clean toilets for 2 months to let Demi Lovato laugh at my shitty jokes/10




But I'm not sure how Abigail Williams is trend hopping. Since when was troo black metal trendy? Shit, they did the opposite of trendhopping - they were deathcore/whatever and touring with deathcore bands, and then they shat on all of those fans to become tr00 bm having to start all over again basically. Even though I hate everything they've ever done, even the early stuff with Bjorn from Vehemence, I give them props for doing something so ballsy.

I love WitTR, but I really don't think they are all that similar. Yes, both are ambient, but so is Burzum. I don't see people saying WitTR copied Burzum.

They didn't go straight from deathcore to BM, they had two albums in between where they changed sound drastically, too. And they aren't playing 'true' black metal now, they are playing Wolves in the Throne Room ripoff stuff. Don't worry though, my opinion is fairly invalid since I only hate them since it's cool to do so on principle.
