Black Metal.

[Zephyrus]

Rhapsody just added all the Borknagar albums online

What happened to the release of the new one? I thought it was to be released 1/31/09, now I see it at December 09.

They've reached the kind of status whereby they take their sweet precious time and do video diaries and other crap every time they do anything relevant to studio work.

 

[no country for old wainds]

The first two Blut aus Nord albums are the best ones anyway.

yeah, true greats

 

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

Tom, you'd do well to check out the new one some time. You'll like it.

 

[Ultimate_Symphony]

TWWTG > both of the first two imo, but they're all 90+ albums so it's nitpicking really. The new one is pretty much in that realm too.

Word.

yeah, i'll order it soon

 

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

You heard the samples/song on Myspace?

 

[Alter]

The new one is really fucking solid and might already be a runner for best of the year, or at least in terms of black metal. The same can not be said about the new Wolves In The Throne Room EP, which is kind of lame and boring. Same road, same style. UGH!

 

[A1a23]

New Blut Aus Nord is beautiful!

 

[Cythraul]

No, commodification is not a serious issue

I hate to continue this stupid discussion (not to mention I was completely tanked when I wrote that last post) but I don't believe I ever suggested that commodification is not a serious issue.

 

[Cromulent]

Was just having a hunt through some of the music I don't listen too that much and came across Sacrificia Mortuorum - Maturum Est. I forgot how good it was.

Anyone here heard any of their earlier work at all?

 

[Contra dk]

Hello. That's also the side of black metal I tend to like. Have you heard Wedard?

Yes I have... Einsamer Winterweg is quite good.

 

[Episteme]

but they're all 90+ albums so it's nitpicking really. The new one is pretty much in that realm too.

Been listening to Belenos - Spicilege, one of my favourite BM albums ever. Anything close to this vein? And I also really like Kriegsmaschine's Altered States of Divinity.

don't wanna ruin the surprise

 

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

Doesn't getting it then listening to it ruin the surprise?

 

[whiskey funeral]

Have you guys heard Arkha Sva from Japan? A friend of mine introduced me to this band. The vocals are pretty incredible.

 

[Omni]

I like them when I want to listen to something crazy and not extremely samey.

 

[whiskey funeral]

Yeah, I really couldn't listen to them all the time. At least that's my opinion now after hearing an album once. They'll probably wind up being one of my favorites.

You will dig Avsolutized for sure than, they possibly share members.

 

[tagradh]

Just got Locus Mortis - Voust.

Good stuff.
