Black Metal.

[Zephyrus]

Nice! I'll be in Boston that night.

 

[Einherjar86]

N' Crugu Bradalui is still my favorite. Awesome music, and epic in scope.

 

[challenge_everything]

Yeah, it's much better than the overrated OM in my opinion.

 

[unknown]

Inarborat Kosmos is pretty good too. Om is still the obvious winner tho.

Yeah, I was going to mention that, but the best song off that (imo) is on OM anyway

 

[unknown]

as I'm listening to Minas Morgul, Summoning has been awfully quiet for a couple years. Any word on a new album?

 

[Eligos]

If its not the album Carriers of Dust then make sure you give it a listen.

I listened to the first two tracks off of that album, as I did with the other two full-lengths, and I have to agree that I enjoyed it the most.

 

[lastxreign]

"Vvrzvm"
The most loved BM band ever. Because... they burned churches??
Really "Filosofem" is one of the best albums ever??
WHO THE FUCK COULD TELL THAT FUCKING WORDS!?!?!?!?
Kill Varg, please. Then you'll be the god of Metal.

I smell troll...

...and it smells like shit.

Damn good question.

 

[no country for old wainds]

ive totally lost interest

 

[Zephyrus]

Likewise. Oath Bound is a chore.

Lugburz > most other black metal.

BTW, Trist (CZE) has got a new demo called Ve Snech Nekrvácím (In Dreams I don't Bleed). I did also translate the titles for some German guy on last.fm, they're 1) Chronic Feeling Of Emptiness 2) Monophony of Darkness.

 

[cookiecutter]

I listened to that demo and it's very good

 

[Einherjar86]

I just discovered that all the members of Gates of Winter (the Christian progressive heavy/power metal band) are also the members of Woods of Ypres, and I'm having a difficult time coming to grips with that.

Likewise. Oath Bound is a chore.

i have no patience with bands who stick to a formula even after they've perfected it, no matter how well they continue to do it. move the hell on, perfect something else. there was a time when every summoning album was clearly distinct from the others, can't say that anymore except in glimpses, and it's not like they're improving significantly on the stuff they're rehashing either. i'd even prefer an audacious flop or two of celtic frost proportions.

 

[Crapples]

So has anyone listened to Weapon's full length? Many, many listens later, I think this may end up my favourite release of the year. They may have lost some of that "rawness" (if that's the right word to use) of prior recordings, but everything else more than makes up for that. Can't get enough of it.

 

[Blind Guardian]

Ordered N Crugu Bradului and OM now, looking forward to some new stuff.

 

[George]

I still can't get into N Crugu... The production on it just does not sit well with me, and it's not like I just got the CD either. I've had it for at least 3 years and it still does nothing for me. Om on the other hand clicked right away for me. I guess I'll give N Crugu another listen tonight, but I may have to trade it away soon.

 

[Einherjar86]

It isn't an easy listen by any means, but it grew on me. There are some great moments on it.

 

[unknown]

I love N Crugu...it's so swampy and dense.

 

[Einherjar86]

And I love the translation of the title: "Through the Depths of the Fir Tree Heights..."
