Best black metal band?

[I Troldskog Faren Vild]

first of all: hi, I`m new here,,,

I`v seen here on the forum that it is some guys who like black metal ...just wanted to know what bands you like best?

personally I think Ulver made the best album ever when they made "Bergtatt..Et Eventyr I 5 Kapitler"...
it`s a shame that they dontt make metal anymore...

whats your favourit black metal cd?

If you consider the lastest Borknagar albums black metal... epic and empericism.

Arcturus - Asphera Heims Symphonia

The best black metal album of 2004 by far is Deathspell Omega's "Si Monvmentvm Reqvires, Cirvmspice"; They are from France. Also, of interest, check out Watain's "Casus Luciferi"; they are from Sweden.

I like that band that has the growls for vocals. You know the one. They also wear makeup, overuse the double bass pedal, and like to palm mute. Man, they rock!

Best black metal band.... Dimmu Borgir

 

[Beelzebub]

Living Colour is my favorite black metal band.

PS: Welcome to the forum

 

[ThePhilosopher]

Averse Sefira and Blut Aus Nord come to mind. Burzum and Darkthrone are the best of the older ones. Bathory as well.

Dimmu Borgir isn't black metal.

Psycroptic - Scepter of Ancients indeed

I've loved CoF for years and years, but nowadays, calling them and borgir black metal is plain blasphemous.

 

[Dieblo]

Speaking of which, after Qorthon (bathory) died I though that the CD prizes were going to decrease and so far they just seem the same, and for what I know Bathory was a one-man band,- I'm not saying that I liked that he died so i would get cheaper CD's because I'm not really into black metal- so has anyone noticed this?? or at least that seems to be the case here in Toronto. I'm just curious of who is taking all the money for this.

 

[houkai]

Where, might I ask, do you find a decent-sized metal music store in Toronto? I've been looking for one in eons.

 

[dargormudshark]

If Dimmu Borgir isn't black metal then Dissection is the best

Kalmah.

black/viking/folk recommendations:

Negura Bunget - 'N Crugu Bradului
Windir - Likferd, 1184
Moonsorrow - Kivenkantaja, Voimasta Ja Kunniasta
Enslaved - Mardraum, Eld, Vikingligr Veldi, Blodhemn
Vintersorg - Till Fjalls, Cosmic Genesis
Falkenbach - Ok Nefna Tysvar Ty
Asmegin - Hin Vordende Sod Og So
Anaal Nathrakh - Domine Non Es Dignus
and my all time fav: Samael - Ceremony of Opposites

 

[Thraxz]

Kalmah is most definitely not black metal.

Asmegin is? They sound melodeath to me. (And absolutely kick ass)
