Best Darkthrone album

[Personified Hatred]

What's in your opinion the best Black Metal album by Darkthrone? According to me, Under A Funeral Moon.

 

[Omni]

I agree with your opinion.

This is really pointless. Everyone's answer will either be UAFM or Transylvanian Hunger.

'under a funeral moon' followed by 'transilvanian hunger'

 

[Life Sucks]

A Blaze in the Northern Sky

Anyways, A Blaze in the Northern Sky

A Blaze in the Northern Sky.

ABITNS is not black metal either.

 

[no country for old wainds]

sorry, fixed

 

[The Ozzman]

I guess I need to get one of the black metal Darkthrone albums. I've been reluctant to get them because I couldn't get into FOAD, Soulside Journey or ABITNS

A Blaze In The Northern Sky is Black Metal. Dumbasses.

Under A Funeral Moon.

Blackened death, assmuncher.

wat, no poll?

UAFM

 

[Thoth-Amon]

i've only heard the early albums... but judging from them i'd say TH closely followed by UAFM

Stop being wrong.

It was obviously a transitional album, but it can unequivocally be seen within the context of Black Metal, and is Black Metal.

I'm going to be petty here. Yes, it's definitely within the context of black, but I see it as death within the context of black and therefor not exactly either.

There are vestigial remnants of Autopsy influence, which is to be expected, but the core was emphatically Hellhammer and Bathory.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Yeah, it's absolutely Black Metal. It's also my favourite after Transilvanian Hunger, but the first three are so close that it doesn't fucking matter.

Okay, I can agree with that. It just never seemed quite pure enough for me, but maybe I'm just being a dick.

If I could vote for a single song, I think it would be Cromlech. That is one fucking incredible piece. If they'd done at least one album's worth of songs like that, they'd easily be one of my favorite bands. Nothing else on Soulside Journey comes close, imo.
