Controversial opinions on metal

[Omni]

I don't know how controversial this is, but I just listened to post-prison Burzum for the first time and it is absolutely terrible.

I actually like the few Belus songs I've heard quite a bit, and I generally gain very little enjoyment from his pre-prison material.

Do you mean you like the early releases from those, i.e. As The Flower Withers, Gothic, etc., or even the latter day releases that lightly incorporate death vocals?

I have a really hard time getting into most of those bands' releases post-2000...especially MDB's For Lies I Sire and A Line of Deathless...I find them repulsive (in a bad way, not like Void of Silence repulsive, who absolutely kick ass).

I was referring to their older stuff but I like all of their new stuff too, especially Katatonia.

Newer Katatonia is far superior to old. Definitely.

FINALLY picked up Dead End Kings. In the same vein as TNITND, but I think it's a bit better.

Completely different music really.

Sounds like you've never listened to much good death metal.

Morbid Angel sucks, man.

No? Belus is excellent. Fallen was ok but I find Umskiptar better.

Anything before prison > Belus > Fallen > Umskiptar > anything that is going to come after that. Sorry.

EDIT: Except maybe Dauði Baldrs which is really weird.

Burzum is gay shit for Hipsters.

I don't even give 1 fuck about that. It's just becoming shitty, no matter what it is.

You've generally sealed my opinion that you like bad music with these two consecutive posts.

Kinda like Bloodbath

Kinda like Bloodbath

lolno. Bloodbath is anti-hipster metal, aside from maybe a handful of very bad hipsters that think it's 2005 and that Opeth is still hip. And even they probably don't like Bloodbath that much.

:danceboy:

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Where do you guys place Ea, Lord of the Depths in the Burzum catalog? That's the only Burzum song that I think I actually love.

 

[sevag00]

That's actually a good song.

 

[divine_torture]

It's one of my favorite Burzum tunes, really.

 

[EspaDa]

Dungeons of Darkness is pretty good too
