Black Metal.

Mayhem - Freezing Moon
Nokturnal Mortum - Lunar Poetry
Samael - Baphomet's Throne

I really need some stuff from them, stop reminiing me! I wish I could listen to more than one thing at a time. I have heard Samael, but I need some of their stuff one of these days. I seem to almost always be working backwards with black metal, starting with more obscure stuff & not paying as much mind to some of the bigger genre names.

Here's a video for that Samael song. I compel you to go get Ceremony of Opposites (or Bloood Ritual, as Dodens would advocate).

 

[Life Sucks]

I have Ceremony of Opposites. I bought it well over 10 years ago. I haven't listened to it in ages. I should probably give it a spin again sometime soon.

When delaing with the best Norwegian black metal songs out of the ordinary:
Satyricon-King of The Shadowthrone, Deep Castle In THe Dark Forest and Mother North definitely qualify. Emperor-The Loss and Curse of Reverence would qualify also. I'm also sure some old Dimmu Borgir tracks such as Spellbound by The Devil qualify also.

[General Zaroff]

My favorite BM songs:

Satyricon - Mother North
Emperor - I Am The Black Wizards
Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger
Mayhem - Freezing Moon
Bathory - A Fine Day To Die

Some may say the last one isn't really true BM rather Viking Metal or some bullshit, but I don't give a fuck, the song is great.

RH, thanks for posting that needlessly (and annoyingly) gigantic picture of that cover art. Good thing it's actually a GOOD album, or I'd edit it to say "I'm a huge fag."

 

[~Derek~]

^Same here, except I neevr heard the Bathory song before, I neevr really heard any Bathory other than some samples and a couple songs off a MySpace.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

I'm late as fuck on Bathory too. I just started listening to them like a week ago. I got Blood Fire Death & I think it's great album. It even has a little lead playing to spice things up. Like I said it's not the purest of Black Metal definitely, but still pretty good. I'm glad I finally checked him out.

 

[Alter]

Yeah they'd sound so much better with some decent album art...

Kind of stupid remark. I meant that I thought Vindsval would do better with the visual aspect because the music is so "out-there" and finely made that I would expect some artwork that would match the great audio.

Sarcasm 101

Lets just say I am not taking sarcasm good today....

It's their best IMO.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

I tripped on that cd and broke my blasfemur.

 

[Evil?]

That made me chuckle.

 

[Alter]

Likewise.

I have seen that vid before. It's cool stuff & I love his guitar tone. It fits the music big fucking time. It's pretty fucking rocking Black Metal. I'll check that album out soon enough...

 

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

Yeah that album is cool, definitely rocking like you said. Nice inclusion of melodic/symphonic elements too, never too pompous or overdone.

SHOW ME DEH WAY...TO DEH BAWPHOMEHT'S THRAAWWWWWOOOONE.

 

[~Neurotica]

Peste Noire rules btw.
