Black Metal.

[Alter]

You got me there. Let me explain.

I have not looked into it deeply, but I have heard Persecuted, Original Sin, and a few slam death metal bands. They don't beat Japan. Fuck yeah.

 

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

What is there for BM from Japan...early Sigh?

 

[Cythraul]

The best music to ever come out of Japan is clearly Loudness - Thunder in the East.

 

[Alter]

The Absolute of Malignity, Sabbat, Abagail, Infernal Necromancy, Arkha Sva, Avsolutized, Manierisme, Funeral Elegy all totally rule.

 

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

I've never heard The Absolute of Malignity. I actually thought of one you forgot though; Endless Dismal Moan (R.I.P. main dude).

 

[Alter]

Shit, I forgot them? Wait, the guy died? How long ago? Not that I really care about him, tbh.

Last known line-up
Chaos 9 (Takuya Tsutsui): All instruments and vocals (Jigokue) (R.I.P June 25th 2008 - Suicide)

 

[sevag00]

Has anybody heard Dom Dracul's Attack on the Crucified? Is is woth listening to it?

 

[Slayed Necros]

Fucking SABBAT.

 

[Zephyrus]

I like Marduk's World Funeral album better than Romans 5:12, I'll probably get Panzer Division Marduk as my next Marduk, the Panzer Division Marduk shirt looks really well by the way.

Plague Angel is better than Panzer Division, and the two albums are similar. The latter has better vocals (Mortuus), a heavier production and a handful of songs that have non-blast drumming parts!

Rom 5:12 is much more mature than those two, though.

I have this on LP. It's awesome.




Also, Abigail and Barbatos (done by the same guy) are from Japan and are real fun to listen to.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

Arkha Sva = complete awesomeness

 

[Mikko666]

For me though it's more than just the aesthetics. To me it sounds clumsy and musically naive. Like pop music that's overly sweet, this is devalued by its own heavy handed attempts to be epic. Wagner for dummies.

Then just don't listen to them if you don't like them, isn't that simple... damn we're repeating ourselve all the time.
They're just two australians guys doing music in their free time... they're not popstar or anything, they don't annoy people with publicity on everywhere on the internet, tv or anything.

Nah, the best is obv See-Saw, Miki Higashino and Dissecting Table. But I guess those doesn't fit in this thread all too well.

Mortuus is the best singer that band has had imo, wish he'd continue Funeral Mist though.

 

[unknown]

I didn't know Arkha Sva was from Japan. Hm!

also, Zuriaake = great chinese bm

 

[whiskey funeral]

Do any of you like Nae'blis? I just "grabbed" their Sketches of Reality album and am really enjoying it so far.

Took a listen to Zuriaake's myspace page a few days ago. Some pretty solid stuff.

 

[Omni]

Arkha Sva = complete awesomeness

I like it, though I only listen to the album sometimes because I have to be in the mood for those vocals.

 

[Perdition's Light]

you and me both.

Fas is alright. I've listened to it twice now. I'm not if I'll ever come to really "love" it, but it was somewhat enjoyable.
