Black Metal.

Not the most consistent album but a lot of it's really cool. A bit like Krallice, if Krallice were way better.

Just checked the album out. Awesome atmospheric stuff indeed.

Shining has some nice solos in its repertoire but I can see your point. Solos in BM are not essential and are sometimes futile.

I think Drudkh featured some good solos on Blood on our Wells, such as here:

The Caladan Brood album features a few solos. I ain't complaining.

Btw for my fellow Americans, the new D666 special edition is on Amazon preorder right now for $16.99. That's cheaper than direct from Season of Mist. It comes in a clam box with alternate art, aa album art patch, and a fairly badass goat leather key chain.

Thanks for making America great again.

Finally checking this one out. I'm way behind on black metal but everything I've checked out recently is gold

My man.

My man.

I said this in a previous post, but I think my taste in black metal will end up being closer the majority of the black metal nuts here for whatever reason. That could still be a wide gap though..

You're probably right. Anybody that likes Armored Saint as much as you is bound to have a good compass.

You being facetious?

No way!

 

[The Ozzman]

No way!

I'm one of the only die hard Armored Saint fans here...

I'd vote for Trump if he wore a D666 shirt.

I've also never bothered much with Armored Saint. Thought March was good but I'm not sure I've ever heard anything else.

By the way, Quorthon would've been 50 today.

 

[The Butt]

Fuuuck. I still wish he'd gotten a chance to make more albums. I enjoyed nearly everything he put out.

 

[CiG]

I wish he had at least lived long enough to finish his Nordland project.

So, Under a Funeral Moon is way too short imo..

40 minutes is a great length for an album in my opinion. But that can only be a good criticism since it implies you wanted more.

It's around the length that most albums should be. Albums that push over 60 minutes are usually too long for their own good, which is unfortunately becoming far too commonplace.

I think the sweet spot for any album for the main genres is between 45-50 minutes. That's just my opinion. Nothing else bad about the album.
