Black Metal.

[gundamterran]

Yeah they're great for anyone wanting to listen to some Black Metal that is truly unique and original, but it seems that most people around here just like to stay "secure" with the more "traditional" style of Black Metal.

It's more like most people around here want to stay away from sub-par gimmicky pseudo black metal.

 

[poundingmetal74]

In this episode I look at the history of black metal and the role that religion plays in the genre. Bands discussed include Venom, Bathory, Mercyful Fate, Sarcofago, Mayhem, Burzum, Dimmu Borgir, and the Norwegian church burnings. On Facebook.

Membaris - Entartet

Dont think this album was mentioned here last year. Worth checking out for sure.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

So hey guys Grand Belial's Key's three full lengths have been reissued. Hells headbangers has them.

First two albums are phenomenal. Didn't think much of the third.

 

[ASD]

Even with this gem? Just listen to that intro!

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Haha, yeah I forgot about that intro. It's not a terrible album, just well below the standard set by the first two albums.

Watched the One Man Metal documentary today. Damn, the dude behind Xasthur might be the most depressing person I've ever seen. Seriously seems like a fucked up dude. Dude from Leviathan seemed profoundly sad as well.

Been listening to Fauna's The Hunt a lot lately. Takes a lot of listens to sink in, as you might expect with a eighty minute song, but it's really growing on me. Looking forward to hearing their new one.

 

[Hubster]

I am so hooked on Verdunkeln it's not funny. These guys are seriously amazing.



Holy shit. This coming Oct I've been a member of UM for 10 years. Freaky.

 

[Goffdahl]

I am so hooked on Verdunkeln it's not funny. These guys are seriously amazing.

Me too. What do you think of their latest? I don't find it as strong as the S/T demo or Einblick... but it's still a very solid release. When you cannot have Nagelfar anymore, then Verdunkeln is a great substitute.

 

[wandering_taco]

Dude thanks for posting Verdunkeln, I'm listening to it now, it is really awesome. I'm really liking the guitar tone, the drum sound, really the overall production is great. Very organic sounding

 

[Draehl]

Yeah, I like the production. It's definitely got the black metal lo-fi, but isn't over the top like some acts are.

 

[UltimateApathy]

I like most sub-par gimmicky pseudo black metal.

Ah, fixed

Really like Fauna myself. Have you bought it from them? Kinda wondering if their website was up to date/still active.

That was tasty. Thanks, Franz. I'm gonna pick that album up this weekend.

 

[Krow]

So maybe this is worth a shot. Does anyone know where I can buy any of Cobalt's full lengths on cd?

 

[JontRevolting]

^^ I'm pretty good friends with Phil McSorley,i'll ask him and get back to you.
What do you ppl think of this,I love it,probably the bands best so far.

 

[SomeGuyDude]

So how 'bout that Ash Borer, huh? Damn. Wasn't even in the mood for BM.

 

[Mort Divine]

Ash Borer kinda sucks

 

[SomeGuyDude]

I do not agree, my friend. Cold of Ages is really hitting all the right marks for me here. Is it pure black metal? Probably not. But it's a fuck of an album.

 

[unknown]

I've only listened to Ash Borer a few times, but I remember liking them. Need to revisit

 

[KafkaX]

Word.

So how 'bout that Ash Borer, huh? Damn. Wasn't even in the mood for BM.

Which album? I remember liking their self titled more than Cold of Ages, but I need to try that one again...My intial spin left me feeling a bit unsatisfied, but that was awhile ago...
