Controversial opinions on metal

[DisconnectedFromReality]

Well I guess I posted this in the right thread. Though I like Venom, hell I prefer it to Motorhead probably. I just think the Bathory LP is far more raw and I prefer Quorthon's vocals.

If we want to talk about later Venom releases, I'd also praise Prime Evil.

Bathory > Blood Fire Death > At Wat With Satan > Under the Sign of the Black Mark > Black Metal > Possessed > The Return = Welcome to Hell

Every album up their kicks ass.

At Wat With Satan

I couldn't resist.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

one of my two favorites from that album, even posted it a few days ago

Bathory > Blood Fire Death > At Wat With Satan > Under the Sign of the Black Mark > Black Metal > Possessed > The Return = Welcome to Hell

Every album up their kicks ass.

Correct order as follows

Hammerheart ....>.... Blood Fire Death > Bathory > Under The Sign of the Black Mark > The Return > at war with satan > black metal > welcome to hell > possessed

You're doing it all wrong anyway, young grasshopper. This is how it's supposed to be done ...

Bathory ;^ ) Blood Fire Death ;^ ) At Wat With Satan ;^ ) Under the Sign of the Black Mark ;^ ) Black Metal ;^ ) Possessed ;^ ) The Return = Welcome to Hell

I'm listening to the reissue of Stronger Than Evil because it arrived in the mail today. Given the fact that Heavy Load was actually fairly popular in Sweden in the 1980s, I'd also have to assume that Quorthon had heard their music as well. That makes his Viking "evolution" even less exciting and original.

 

[EchoForever]

honest question, what do you guys think about NSBM
would you still listen and recc a band knowing they were NS, do you care, do you think it belongs in the scene?

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Yes to everything.

I have no interest in supporting Nazi media in any form and I have no issue with disassociating myself with a black metal act if I learn about their Nazism after I first started listening to them. It's black metal, not Wagner, and not profound enough a form of music for me to overlook overt or even underlying politics in their music.

 

[The Ozzman]

This question needs to be asked about DSBM instead tbh

 

[Omni]

Why'd you edit your original post? The previous version was a lot better.

To the question; I don't mind listening to NSBM, though even for black metal it's littered with pointless trash. But when a NSBM band does something right they often do it very right.

If Nazi bands weren't talentless 99.9999% of the time I'd happily listen to them. Battle Cry's Triumph of the Will (trad metal though) is where Nazi metal begins and ends with me.
