Black Metal.

[Evil?]

When it comes to praising Panzerfaust I like to mention that The Hordes of Nebulah is one of the raddest BM songs ever.

 

[Life Sucks]

Panzerfaust is my second favorite Darkthrone black metal album after ABitNS.

last night I had 2 revelations; one that alatyr's s/t is so much like burzum's Hvet album and dear god its one of the best BM albums in years.

 

[cookiecutter]

It was my favorite from 07

 

[General Zaroff]

So who else likes Gris?

 

[~Neurotica]

Me. They are awesome. Love the vocals.

 

[General Zaroff]

Me. They are awesome. Love the vocals.

Yes, the vocals are great.

I love how they sometimes shift from a sad sound to a happy sound.

 

[TheInsane]

I love panzerfaust. I do think the vocals are to high in the mix but other than that its excellent. Really good melody work with the guitars on that one. Brilliant album!

 

[General Zaroff]

Listening to Alatyr - Alatyr... almost through "Burka," fuck this is awesome.

 

[Zephyrus]

My band of the day is Arcane Necrosis. Excellent atmospheric/progressive BM from Australia.

 

[General Zaroff]

Alatyr does a nice cover of Darkthrone. I prefer the original though.

 

[Zephyrus]

The original could have used some variation in drumming as was done on the cover. The whole album could have benefitted from that.

 

[darrkon]

Has anyone else noticed that Funeral Mist's song "Across The Qliphoth" sounds a hell of a lot like the Star Wars Imperial death march song?

 

[General Zaroff]

The original could have used some variation in drumming as was done on the cover. The whole album could have benefitted from that.

Agreed.

 

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

Has anyone else noticed that Funeral Mist's song "Across The Qliphoth" sounds a hell of a lot like the Star Wars Imperial death march song?

Possibly on purpose.

 

[MasterOLightning]

There's a song on Pure Holocaust that's also really similar to that theme.

 

[sevag00]

Yes, the vocals are great.

I love how they sometimes shift from a sad sound to a happy sound.

The vocals are great no doubt. The sound shifting makes this band remarkable to me.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

The original could have used some variation in drumming as was done on the cover. The whole album could have benefitted from that.

Actually, it would have defeated the purpose of the album, which is something many people fail to understand when they attempt to criticize it. Obviously, such a monumental work of art stands above criticism, though, so it's all good.

That it's a monument to minimalism? I can see that, but it goes a bit far to say that it cannot be touched by criticism. In fact that applies to all forms of art; not until there is what we can all call true perfection.
