Starbucks generally sucks, but I praise that their name comes from one of my favorite books ever, Moby Dick. Are they famous because of the fact they write one's name on his coffee?

Supposidely "the atmosphere" but I find most people in there are angry yuppies. Gimme waffle house or any other restaurant coffee over their over priced, bitter trash...

Say what you will about Starbucks, but nothing is better to fuel you than a venti iced americano. 4 shots of espresso mixed with ice water. At a reasonable price of $3.46 including tax, it's the only caffeinated beverage I require all day.
... and we have digressed.

So, nobody mentions the live Graveland footage in here? Good, you guys aren't worthy of seeing it.
I will post this though. Xaire.

Does anyone have any recs for a Black Metal noob with a background in Progressive, Doom, Death Metal? I've already checked out some of the real classic stuff like Bathory, Burzum, Mayhem, and Darkthrone, with the fromer three being more enjoyable. Also, I enjoyed the atmosphere and music of Death- Pierce Me by Silencer, despite the comical vocals. Anything kinda like that worth checking out?

This should be interesting. Prepare for a monsoon of recommendations.
Here's some personal favourites of mine.
(Won't link anything from Immortal Pride by the same band as the songs are very long, but I recommend that album too.)
And a more recent band that I often sacrifice beers to.

i'll just chuck out a handful you may like:
ved buens ende - written in waters
hail - inheritance of evilness
bethlehem - dark metal/dictius te necare (some silencer vibes)
aeternus - beyond the wandering moon
out of interest, which darkthrone did you check out? pretty much all their classic albums are quite different from one another.

I have "A Blaze In The Northern Sky" and "Transylvanian Hunger", and I especially liked "Transylvanian". I understand they were more death metal when they started, but I haven't heard that stuff. I've been meaning to pick up "Under A Funeral Moon". Also, thanks for the recs. I'll check these out as soon as I get a chance.

Your initial post made it sound like you didn't really enjoy Darkthrone so I'm assuming that's why old wainds asked which albums you'd heard. Soulside Journey and Goatlord are their death metal albums (and pretty great ones) if you want to look into that side of them.
A Blaze in the Northern Sky is my favourite Darkthrone, but all of their first 5 are great imo. I also enjoy some of their newer stuff but it isn't really black metal. One of the most consistently good metal bands with a large discography.
Be sure to let us know what you think of the current recs.

Yeah, Pure Holocaust is basically flawless. Same with Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss

Filosofem is also flawless, but I prefer the atmosphere on Hvis Lyset Tar Oss. It infatuated me after the first listen.

All kinds of Summoning albums should be checked out. Doesn't matter which.

Don't know how no one's mentioned Emperor yet. Check out their first two. And +1 to Pure Holocaust, though you may find later Immortal easier to get into. Pure Holocaust is their best though by far.
Speaking of Darkthrone though, they're one band that's never really clicked with me except for some riffs. Stuff like the opening riff and riff at 0:52 in this one are as good as it gets to me but I can't get into the rest of the song or a lot of their material. A lot of it just sounds kind of generic TBH to me. Is there some band/album out there where I can get 40 minutes of said riffs? Pest comes close with some of their stuff but again, it's hit or miss to me.
