Black Metal.

[Vilden]

Who cares about innovation (especially when the attempt at it is just boring like BAN), none of those bands can even begin to touch the emotions of songs like Magical Shadows of a Tragic Past or The Dark Promise.

 

[Cythraul]

DsO sucks ass.

 

[Mikko666]

No, Funeral Mist is another trend-riding, plastic orthodox black metal band.

Wow you guys need to check your black metal history 101, how is Funeral Mist trendster since they created the whole orthodox genre? These guys were already doing that style back in 1996 and recorded Salvation in 2001. Name me another band playing orthodox black metal back in 2001? pretty much none! except ofermod who did only 2 songs in their career, so they're not jumping any bandwagon, they're riding it.

Whatever it is this band attempted to do, failed horribly.

Fail? fail at being themselve (or himself) for 13 years? Where do you think Glorior Belli, Deathspell Omega, Watain, Merrimack, Katharsis, Antaeus, Arkhon Infaustus, Ondskapt, Heresi, Corpus Christii, Arkha Sva, Behexen and Newer Marduk took their inspiration from? from a guy named Arioch.

DsO are the best Black Metal band of this decade.

Save for Watain's newest one, I'd say they are up there with DsO too. But I don't disagree with your post.

Too bad you picked Watain's worst album to compare it to DsO.

 

[divine_torture]

I said 'save for' the last one. Their first two are the ones I'm comparing.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

hahahaha, DSO is crap. so damn overrated

 

[MasterOLightning]

Watain is just a rip-off of Dissection. I'm not sure what people find interesting about this band.

 

[2emos1razor]

I've been a fan of black metal for a couple years, but haven't found anything as good as Wolves In The Throne Room.

Ok, having trouble making a choice here. I'm on Negative Existence trying to choose an album to buy. I'm getting a Profanatica shirt, which leaves me 12 bucks left. I'm thinking either Profanatica's full length or something from Old Wainds. Any thoughts?

 

[Alter]

Old Wainds for sure.

 

[divine_torture]

First or 'Scalding Coldness'?

 

[Slayed Necros]

first Old Wainds album is the best, aside from the Where the Snows are Never Gone... demo.

 

[MasterOLightning]

Scalding Coldness came off as very average. I thought it would be much better. What am I missing here?

 

[Slayed Necros]

It is average. Check out their early stuff, particularly the demo I mentioned (it was released on CD).

This thread is hurting my head to read tbh, and page 666 was an epic disappointment. Thanks guys.

Wasn't expecting such a backlash against DsO.

Me neither.

And this. There have been some pretty strange opinions regarding great music in the last few posts.

Nevermind, drunkness got the best of me.
