first you say you do understand blackmetal, then you say you only like astriaal because they have one album of good production and therefore all other black metal is shit because it has shit production? make up your mind. you do know that astriaal did wear corpse paint at metal for the brain a few years ago?
some other black metal bands that also have this "good production" that you think must be present to make a good album:
satyricon, shining, sirius, samael, emperor, akercocke, falkenbach, marduk, mayhem, naglfar, the ninth path, old man's child (plus the many more that i really couldn't be bothered looking up right now).
see, i know people that critisize black metal for one thing or another that are completely justified in their eyes: such as a few outspoken voices in the scene, or the relative obscurity of a lot of quality material. i have friends that really like extreme metal of other forms, and don't like black metal, yet they respect the fact it's my preffered type of music. it is retarded that you think that because i said you don't understand it, it's because you're critisizing it, when you really haven't got a fucking clue. you've heard one darkthrone song, couldn't see past the production, and labelled black metal as a one dimensional artform. i don't care if you don't like black metal, but we already know you're opinion, and as everyone knows: opinions are like arseholes, everyone's got them, and their all about as pretty and shitty as each other.
you're keep going on about how crap the black metal scene is (how would you know?), and then go on about how macho and tough you are because you'd like to think that black metal fans are scared of you. i know which side i'd rather be on. you sound like types of cocksuckers that turn up to metal gigs (any type of metal) and ruin it for everyone, because you're obsessed with looking tough in the hope of hiding your own homosexual urges you obviously aren't comfortable with. "the people are nice, and are like me" ... if they're anything like you, i doubt they're nice.
not all black metal has corpse paint, some of it does. not all black metal has "shit" production, but what type of metal has a consistant track record of extremely expensive and sterile sound? oh, sorry, i forgot you like linkin-park. not all black metal has political motivation, neither does it have to be deep-rooted in imagery. some of it is, and there's nothing wrong with music taking on a little bit more than just the music. it's called multimedia and has been a legitimate art form for quite a while now. you obviously like nasum, who obviously spend either or both a bit of time and money on there cd covers, and good on them for it, because they look great, so why can't black metal do the same thing in a different way? well, you'll say because black metal's imagery is shit, which is completely irrelevant because you don't like black metal. my brother think's nasum is shit, and i know why he does, because he doesn't like them. doesn't make him any less of a good bloke (and probably a lot better than you). my brother also doesn't like black metal, but that he doesn't come in and go on about how shit it is. it's called being a decent bloke. try it, people might not swear at you so much.
you're posts on black metal are irrelevant because you don't understand black metal, you obviously know nothing about the dimensions of black metal, have no understanding of dissonance, minimalism, ochestral structure & arrangement, alternative production values, aural atmospheres/period music, contemporary and classical composition techniques. that's why we're sick of your posts, you're like the fuckhead at gigs who calls out shit to bands when the rest of us just want to watch them and have a good time while you ruin the night. fuck you.
