Black Metal.

That and you get more kvlt/tr00 points.

seriously. I have to look even harder to find a decent REAL underground black metal band. there's a couple here in Los Angeles that are really good. but having listened to some demos and stuff of unsigned bands, there are a lot of shitty underground/unsigned bands.

but the ones that are good are the diamonds in the rough. totally worth the search.

I like Black Metal bands that aren't just fuzz and noise (unless it's Ambient, in which case they can get away with it). Like lo-fi is cool and all, but if all I hear is an odd drum crash and a lot of static things kinnda... wow... it's not even music anymore.

I listened to Burzrum - Filosofem last night. On first listen it was pretty good and definitely sounds like a grower.

^ good stuff mate! Dig deep into Burzum, it will open your eyes to Black Metal in ways that almost no other band can.

Somebody sent me Jesus' Tod and I've been listening to Ea, Lord of the Depths on a MySpace. That drum part is great.

The first Burzum album is very much "precursive" of what was to come, that is, Varg still getting his feet wet. By the time we get to Aske, he's started to settle in.

Glad you liked it. I'll lend you Hvis Lyset Tar Oss at anytime.


As for my own pursuits, how is Det Some En Gang Var as compared to later releases?

A few eye-openers indeed.

Not really new, and that guy has some bad taste. I mean Transylvanian Hunger on a worst album list?

The worst out of his BM stuff, in my opinion. Still around an 8/10.

Saw this quite a while ago. The guy is kind if an idiot. A lot of the things on that website are stupid.

 

[mattcira]

interesting way to promote yourself

I don't play in the band. Obviously, geography makes this impossible. I live in Chicago and they are from Norway. I just host their site.

Exceptional, an outstanding album, imo worth it alone for Naar Himmelen Klarner. The album also opens with what I consider one of the darkest pieces of electronic music of all time.

Don't even ask more questions Zeph - buy it

Opposite for me. Great album, don't get me wrong, but I liked it more when i first heard it than I do now. Jesus Tod and Dunkelheit are classic tracks for sure.

 

[skeptik]

Det Som Engang Var is easily his worst Black Metal album, but frankly, that's saying quite a lot.

 

[Hubster]

^ I can't say that Burzum has a worst album

 

[skeptik]

I can, very easily.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

Dauði Baldrs

 

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

Dauði Baldrs is the worst Burzum. Contrastingly, Hliðskjálf is good.
