Black Metal.

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah I was gonna say VVVVE too.

 

[Alter]

That record is really a mind fuck. Its really fucking unrelentless.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

You mean either relentless or unrelenting.

 

[Alter]

Of course...

Essential black metal classic.

The release itself is not very high quality, unfortunately.

Why would someone even think of taking a picture in a bathroom?

That's Varg btw.

quick, people who know more about bm than me: what's a black metal band that actually sounds heavy (as in, kickass deep bass and suchlike) not just fast and shittily produced/orchestral and "epic"?

blackened-anything-else doesn't count

thankee

Countess.

 

[Alter]

That's Varg btw.

Yeah, I know. That is what makes it even better.

 

[supseudonymous]

Countess.

Er.. did Gorgoroth rip off the title of their latest release from these guys?

They're both fucking great.

 

[skeptik]

I doubt it was intentional, since it's an actual phrase that's widely used (though Gorgoroth fucked it all up), but yeah, Countess clearly used it first.

 

[Skepticism]

Haha, alright thanks. Your recs tend to be widely accurate and good.

I don't really get the V thing in that album's title; what's the purpose?

Need opinions on the following albums:

Limbonic Art - Ultimate Death Worship
Sear Bliss - The Arcane Odyssey

Need opinions on the following albums:

Limbonic Art - Ultimate Death Worship

Not quite as good as Ad Noctum..., but still an excellent release. Less keyboards and more guitar-oriented than the previous, but still a good balance. The album contains some of Limbonic Art's best songs ("Suicide Commando", "Towards the Oblivion of Dreams) as well as their worst ("Funeral of Death"). Overall, it's a definite plus, but more in terms of epic aggression than atmospheric/symphonic grandeur.

It's a logical next step after Ad Noctum, but if you're starved for keyboards and orchestration then get In Abhorrence Dementia first.

 

[JontRevolting]

How about Inquisition's classic "Into The Infernal Regions Of The Ancient Cult" very bottom heavy and very evil

Occult.

So I went to the record store today just to browse the metal section. Next to me I noticed someone wearing a Nachtmystium shirt. Naturally I said "nice shirt" and we had some good conversation about black metal, naturally. Well we got to the end of the metal section and where it said "Miscellaneous Metal" where I happen to find a copy of Godkiller's The Rebirth of the Middle Ages, used for like $7. My new friend immediately says "hey, Godkiller! A friend of mine told me to get into this band!" My modesty did me in yet again and I handed it to him, at which he said "nice meeting you" and walked away to buy it.

Had I known more about this band I would have claimed the album for myself. Apparently it's a gem of medieval-style black metal a la Dark Medieval Times.

Oh well. The guy was cool. He plays in a local band called Abaroth.

Strid - The End Of Life > Malfeitor - Pandemonium > Strid - Strid > Malfeitor - Malfeitor

 

[Alter]

Strid is pretty good band. I am trying to find more obscure black metal bands from the early 90s.
