Black Metal.

[MasterOLightning]

Ok, just wanted to report on the album by Trist (Ger) - Hin/Fort, a 2CD release. Oddly, the first disc, featuring a one-hour, single track song, is the black metal half, and the seven track 2nd disc is ambient, more or less. I liked the first disc quite a bit. It made great passive background music, with a few simple, but enjoyable melodies, that repeated frequently over the hour. There were significant amounts of ambient noise as well. Plan on having an hour to spare for this one. It reminded me of what I thought Darkspace should have been. More ambient and soothing, and less abrasive. I found it to be quite satisfying for typical internet browsing. Not very demanding on the listener. I'd come back to this disc.

The 2nd disc is ambient/noise. Nothing metal really. It reminds me of Diagnose: Lebensgefahr at it's better moments, and and Ulver - Teachings in Silence at it's weaker ones. It was growing on me, as I went on, but I've heard other metal acts do better ambient work.

I find this whole "what Darkspace should have been" thing rather amusing and naive.

Did anybody have the chance to listen to the new Paragon Belial album? Give me your thoughts.

Seriously.

Perhaps they expect something more ethereal than the storm-blown oppressive atmosphere that Darkspace unleashes.

Anyone going to any of the Frostmoon Eclipse, Chaos Moon, Benighted in Sodom shows? There is one in Columbus Ohio and I have the day off so I am thinking of driving down for the day.

Edit: I see that Velnias will also be playing the Columbus date.

Is it Black or is it just the truth? Most black metal raves against the formal nature of religon, yet it is not against belife and faith.. just the corruption of Rev Billy-Billy Billy of Mount a Goat Church of 'gimme gimme your cash'.

Black is the truth that rages and burns.

Possibly the new "only opeth, only opeth in metallic form"

At least you noticed I was female as opposed to 'bronze eye' who is dickless. If you want Black Metal listen to the album Devils Meat by Deliverence. That which came after is a pale shadow of the dark truth!

and I am not a mad cunt, I am a SANE CUNT!

If you think that's what Darkspace should have been, you're definitely missing the point of their music.

I still think the whole "Chuck is the maddest cunt" thing was the best.

 

[MasterOLightning]

I'm so sorry that I find Darkspace boring.

Nobody said you had to like them, but to say that they should sound the way you want them to is pretty silly, since the way you want them to sound would make it impossible for them to accomplish what they're going for, and also because they aren't making music to please you.

 

[Vilden]

It's ok, they never were a top tier band anyway.

Edit: @ MasterOLightning

 

[Omni]

I'd definitely disagree with that, since I think they're one of the best ambient black metal bands around nowadays.

 

[Vilden]

I guess I agree on that actually, but I'm not a big fan of ambient black metal in general so they do not rank that high anyway for me. I rather listen to "pure" dark ambient if I want ambience with that atmosphere. Well I guess it depends on what counts as ambient black metal. If Burzum could be considered it for example I don't say no.
