Bedroom black metal

[Cynical]

Drawbridge is a one-man bedroom Black Metal project dedicated to making extremely shitty music. In the age of the internet, persona is everything and talent is nothing. So why shouldn't I try to validate my existence with minimal effort via a substanceless, space-taking waste of time?

Good job.

Now listen to Black Mayonnaise for a one man, bedroom project that kicks insane ass.

Does this confirm that black metal is now dead and has become a self-parody as a genre then?

Nothing could be farther from the truth. Black metal as a genre is getting very interesting again. I have not listened to much BM since the mid 90's but recently started getting back into it again. There is some phenomenal stuff out there.

Thanks, Jesus.

You're named after Darkthrone's second worst album. Your opinion is null and void.

 

[Melodeath]

Hahaha

It could be because it's past four in the morning here, but I just laughed out loud. In real life. haha cheers.

EDIT: Also, Black Mayonnaise is just too fucken weird. Don't do it.

Well, it is very easy to produce shitty black metal. Just tremolo pick random power chords, lay down a simple bassline mirroring the guitars, program a simple drum beat, and add some shrieking vocals. This is why there are so many shitty bedroom black metal bands. Of course, it is very hard to make good black metal.

You're gay.

Imagine this, if you will.

Have you heard the Melvins? Particularly their sludge stuff? Well, imagine that at 75% speed AND pitch (that's right...slower AND lower than the Melvins...WHAT BITCH, WHAT?!)...OK now imagine drunken atmospheric keyboard ramblings producing an aura of weirdness not unlike...well, it's really not like much.

OK now imagine possibly Merzbow doing a lo-fi Melvins remix (not as noisy, more sludgy and torturous) with weird, floating keyboards. Forget everything I already told you, this is a better description. Now imagine a dying animal--your choice--providing vocals.

Now picture a guy named Mike Duncan from Akron, OH doing all of that in his bedroom.

Good description and samples!

My statement still stands.

Thats funny because your opinion doesnt mean anything to me. I listen to a ton of BM and there is a lot of it that is amazing......new stuff included. Xasthur, Cult of Daath, Ibex Throne and many many more. Get over your little elitist attitude and stop acting like you are better than others.......

 

[Cynical]

Xasthur, Cult of Daath, Ibex Throne

Holy shit, your taste sucks.

 

[Christie_fell]

Nocturnal Poisoning is the only one I'll listen to. Fuck off the rest.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

What about Shadow Of Death?

 

[Christie_fell]
