Albums currently kicking your ass

yes ma'am danke

Darkthrone does death metal!

I despise Darkthrone's black metal music and what it (and Burzum, which I have many more reasons for despising) did to black metal in general, and the fact that they made A Blaze in the Northern Sky a year later is truly tragic. They really made some awesome technical death metal.

Darkhtrone has played a big role in the Norwegian Black Metal scene. How can you hate them?

 

[Woolie Wool]

Because I hate the role they played. Pantera played a very big role in the '90s metal scene and I hate them, too. Emperor and Mayhem actually strove to become tighter, more talented, and more ambitious with each release (compare De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas to Deathcrush or Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk with Wrath of the Tyrant), Darkthrone threw all of their musicianship and songwriting ability out the window and released droning, repetitive music that "hypnotizes" some people but only serves to bore the hell out of me.

Darkthrone are a bore to listen to, and so are Varg and all of their followers. I'd just pass them and Burzum up as not worth consideration except for the fact that they hold more influence than just about any other black metal band ever, Mayhem included.

Id have to agree that soulside journey is pretty much the only darkthrone album i enjoy enough to listen to frequently.

Transilvanian Hunger and Under a Funeral Moon are enjoyable once in a while.

How long have you two been listening to Black Metal? Six months? A year? Give it time, kids... You might understand one day.

 

[Woolie Wool]

Listening to black metal more made me appreciate the minimalistic aspects less, and once I really got into heavy, thrash, and prog, I lost any appreciation whatsoever. There is no substitute for riffs.

also i highly recommend "advent parallax" by averse sefira. the drumming is superb and it's just a great album even though the band members appear to be dolts.
