Strid > Burzum

Burzum > everything

except Varg ripped off Strid.

this is where varg took his inspiration to make Filosofem.

he's not as original and creative as people believe he is.

My favorite part of the internet.

jeez people don't understand anything these days... I never said Mutiilation ripped DSO.... only that Willy and Hasjarl are close friends and both albums have the same productions.

by the way, I'm currently listening to Mutiilation's Sorrow Galaxies and sounds like Willy took influence from DSO - FAS by including longs songs (10-12mins) and adding REAL drums (I can't stand drumcomputer most of the times).

Umm... I'm sensing a disconnect here

Does anyone like the latest Watain disc? How does it compare to Casus Luciferi?

It's good, but Casus Luciferi is a lot better in my opinion.

 

[~Derek~]

anybody on UM know what Strid sounds like? I don't like the idea of Burzum ripping off someone else.

I heard a song form them once that someone sent me, they reminded me of Immortal vocalwise.

 

[Vossyrus]

Strid is excellent...but I don't see how Varg is a rip off. If anything, Strid probably took influence from Burzum.

Filosofem was completed in the early months of '93. Strid's EP was apparently recorded in '93 and released in '94...not to mention how unknown Strid probably was at that time, and I highly doubt Varg took notice of Strid's recording/writing sessions looking for inspiration...:Smug:

Tell me, you've never heard of Kyrck?

Fuck off, trendster.

But srsly, which band had that whole anti-satanism thing?

 

[The Ozzman]

Antestor?

 

[Solipsist]

We should leave it that both Strid and Burzum are both good/original in their own ways.

(additionally, it would be have been nice if Strid had recorded more material, than what, three songs total?)

Burzum wasn't "more" known back in 1992.... they (he?) mainly got popular because of the murder stories.

This is what I thought Strid was.

He sure was a hell of a lot more popular than Strid, and was already known for his time in Old Funeral and Mayhem, and his releases were selling out, etc. So yeah, again you're wrong and don't know what you're talking about. Obviously he became more well known after the murders and the greater media grabbed hold of his story, but relatively speaking, Varg was a huge character in the Norwegian Black Metal scene as it was occurring.

Am I the only one who finds Taake's (or Hoest for that matter) guitar work and riffage different from normal black metal? Especially on Hordaland Doedskvad.

No I'm of the same thought. It's strange listening to that album. It's undeniably black metal, yet the guitar work is unlike most black metal I've heard. It's far more complex.

Borknagar is a similar band in terms of guitar-work, but not as complex as Taake's.

 

[KevenZ]

The Taake trilogy is excellent, I hope they'll continue in that way instead of the crappy Nekro EP.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Taake rules.
and the new Drudkh is superb.

 

[cookiecutter]

I listened to some Taake songs today and it was very hit or miss for me. Some riffs were good and others were boring
