Controversial opinions on metal

[skeptik]

If there are 10 better black metal albums than Xasthur/Leviathan this decade, I'd like to know what they are.

Hail - Inheritance Of Evilness
Faustcoven - Rising From Below The Earth
Drudkh - Forgotten Legends
Darkspace - Dark Space I
Paysage d'Hiver - Paysage d'Hiver
Mgła - Groza
Countess - Heilig Vuur
Zemial - In Monumentum
Misery's Omen - Hope Dies
Lunar Aurora - Andacht

+ an infinite amount more

 

[Slayed Necros]

+

Nocternity - Onyx
Algor - Úder pohanského hnevu
Deathspell Omega - Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice
Dark Tribe - In jeraspunta - Die Rückkehr der tollwütigen Bestie
Bekhira - L' Elu Du Mal
Nav' - Halls of Death
Watain - Casus Luciferi
Sigrblot - Blodsband (Blood Religion Manifest)
Morrigan - Celts
Katharsis - Kruzifixxion

Pretty easy though, seeing as Xasthur fucking sucks.

 

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

Wasn't it you who decided after much rumination that he liked Nocturnal Poisoning? I forget. I think Nec likes it to an extent. I can name a shitload of stuff that's better also, but I still like some of Xasthur and Leviathan's work.

 

[Vilden]

+

Funeral Mist - Salvation
Ondskapt - Draco Sit Mihi Dux
Nokturnal Mortum - Weltanschauung
Dub Buk - Idu na Wy!
Megiddo - Atavism of Evil
Craft - Terror Propaganda
Mütiilation - Majestas Leprosus
Veles - The Black Raven Flew Again
Grand Belial's Key - Judeobeast Assassination
Damnation - Destructo Evangelia

So, now you got 30 albums that are better. Wasn't that hard was it?

 

[skeptik]

From 30 different bands, no less.

 

[CF87]

Xasthur and the entire suicidal black metal thing is some of the dumbest music i've heard. sorry

Does not really sound like music to me.

 

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

You think black metal has no riffs or whatever so your opinion hardly counts...

 

[Manic Ferocity]

I like Nocturnal Poisoning but that's about it.

 

[The Ozzman]

There's a Half Price Books by my house that has some used copies of some Xasthur but I have delayed picking the shit up because I know people here have said the band sucks.

 

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

It's something you should concentrate on listening to.

 

[The Ozzman]

It's something you should concentrate on listening to.

wat

I can't be bothered with listening to a genre that I have little to no interest in right now. I mean, I like some black metal, but I'd rather focus on getting classics like Left Hand Path and others

 

[skeptik]

Andy, do you honestly think Ozzman has any chance of actually enjoying Xasthur? I can't possibly even imagine him liking it.

 

[The Ozzman]

There's a chance of anyone liking anything even if that chance is minute, tbh

 

[Blind Guardian]

There's NO chance that virgin Mary would like anal fisting tbh.

 

[The Ozzman]

I don't think anal fisting existed back then. Even so, no way to actually know unless you ask the virgin Mary herself, eh?

 

[King Richard]

Maybe anal fisting was the reason she was still called the Virgin Mary.

 

[Uncreation]

I've never understood the appeal of Leviathan(US) or Xasthur. I just can't get anything out of either band at all.

 

[The Ozzman]

I like Leviathan, but I don't listen to the band much

 

[divine_torture]

I listen to them quite a bit. Definitely one of my fav bm bands.

 

[CF87]

Maybe anal fisting was the reason she was still called the Virgin Mary.

I'm guessing she loved it in the butt.
