Black Metal.

[Zephyrus]

^ Personally I find their later material, especially the latest album, far too death-metal orientated, even though it's really good.

The first album is excellent though.

I only own their latest Emissaries and I've heard scraps of Sphinx. But from what I've heard I think it's a band Krig would like.

 

[Hubster]

Sphinx is really damned good.

 

[Life Sucks]

I'll post his exact posts. Well, there are two people but they are essentially the same in terms of thinking.

I stared a thread on the Primordial forum quite some time ago, regarding what genre Primordial fans are primarily into. This is the response some Irish guy gave:

"the ans to the origonal question,life_sucks,is 'what the hell kind do you think?'

Primordial are pure BM.....always were.....and vocal style is not restricted in BM.
Wilderness is BM,but it's also just GREAT rock and roll,and these always have been the finest Irish rock group of ANY genre."

It says the exact opposite of what the jerk you are talking about said.

I found a great site for death and black shirts, great selection, it's where I found the Satyricon shirt I was wanting.

Convert it to dollars if you're America and it's 20 $ for a t shirt and 5 $ for shipping.

Celtic Black Metal seems like the best moniker for Primordial. It emphasizes that black metal is the base of their sound while they still have a very strong folky/celtic vibe to them.

Also, I saw that argument over on GameFAQs' Metal board. I don't get how BuggedBass could call them Doom? Their is next to no doom in their sound. Ah, well, it is gameFAQs afterall.

Melechesh play Mesopotamian black/death metal. You should check them out if you haven't already, their latest album in particular.

aye, they are fucking good. but not Egyptian. I want Nile lyrics in a pagan/black band.

Ammattammen Bas

From M-A:
They hail from Alexandria, Egypt. They play black metal. Lyrical themes include mummies, pyramids, and camels.

I'm liking Obscurus Advocam's full length a good bit. Pretty solid French BM. Nothing strikingly original, just well executed.

Krig: You should form your own pagan band.. 'The Pharoh's of Kriglochia'.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

I havent had a band since 2001

 

[EmbraceTheDeath]

Anyone ever heard of the band Will of the Ancients?
Really good melodic black metal band(blackened death maybe). Here's a link to their myspace page:

Yeah Will of the Ancients is a decent melodic death/black band from what I have heard of them. I should see them play live too since their close to where I live.

Camels!

 

[entanglement]

I was gonna laugh at that earlier.

Now all we need is a Cannibal Corpse album focusing on Egyptian camel bestiality.

Necrocamephilia?

 

[More Murder]

We need a Sioux pagan black metal band!

Hmm, I don't know if I'd call Primordial black metal. Certainly very black metal inspired. Then again I've only heard a couple of their albums (The Gathering Wilderness and Spirit the Earth Aflame). Loved them both though. Any of their other albums worth picking up?

 

[Life Sucks]

All Primordial is worth picking up. Storm Before Calm is great. A Journey's End is also good. Imrama is their weakest, but still a good album, and also the most black metal.

 

[LuminousAether]

I'll have to keep an eye out for them. They're the kind of band where I'm not too impressed the first time I hear an album, but on the 10th or so listen I'm just floored and I can't get enough.

Go make a solo one like me.
