Of those I would say I like Coroner the best easily. Destruction would be my second pick.

I thought you said you weren't really into extreme metal?

I like early extreme metal and some bands that remind me of early extreme metal. Nothing else has really gotten my attention. I thought that I had been more clear on that.

Bathory was very influenced by Manowar, but that is all the better because Manowar also rules and the combination happened to create the best album ever (Hammerheart).

BTW, Bathory is obv the best band ever and better than every other thrash, black, etc. Being a bm-fan and not owning every single Bathory-album and buying new shit like random DSBM, some Mgla albun or other hipster shit or something is pouserdom incarnated. </fanboy rant>

Assuming that's not all sarcasm it's nice to see more Bathory love.

Even Octagon? Fuck.

 

[Vilden]

Well Octagon may be abit subpar but when you're getting everything else you might aswell get Octagon too when you're at it.

 

[MrTagoMago]

Again Octogon isn't very good but I just don't think it's horrible.

 

[MrTagoMago]

I think I'm more interested in harsh noises and textures than most metal heads are.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

"Textures" is a codeword for "riff subversion".

 

[MrTagoMago]

Sorry I'm kind of a dumb ass so could you explain in a clear manner what you mean by that?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

The non-metal globalist elite is undermining decades of honest, hard-working, Anglo-Saxon riffcraft.

Pretty sure riffs create textures so I don't get it.

Not true, plenty of metalheads like Textures. They're a great band.

 

[MrTagoMago]

I think my initial post was misunderstood and everyone's being a smartass.

Sure, but textures alone don't create riffs.

 

[MrTagoMago]

Exactly.

 

[Internally Deformed]

I create riffs on my guitar, but maybe that's just me.

 

[The Ozzman]

Only riffs are real

 

[Internally Deformed]

What's the opinion here on Portal? As close as metal can get to being riffless IMO.

I think they suck.
