Controversial opinions on metal

[The Batlord]

Varg had some of the most influential/innovative ideas of 90s metal, but individually there aren't that many great riffs. Most of them are on the S/T.

Horse hockey. "Jesus Tod", "Det Som Engang Var", and "Lost Wisdom" have brilliant riffs, and those are just off the top of my head.

Also, Ea, Lord of the Depths, Key to the Gate, A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit..

"Lost Wisdom" was the song that got me into Burzum, the main reason being that RIFF. Such a great groove. Simple, yet effective as the cliché goes.

 

[The Batlord]

Due to the current black metal conversation in the What Makes a Bad Metal Band thread, Ulver's Bergtatt is way overrated and Nattens Madrigal is far superior. Like, seriously, Bergtatt is decent black metal and decent folk thrown together that really works only occasionally, whereas Nattens Madrigal is a glorious hatefuck.

"He's" literally a joke dude? Like, "he's" posing as a dude as a joke? Or "he's" some scientifically engineered alternate gender person with male-like qualities that some drunk scientist created for the lulz?

If I have a brother in dad jokes (an uncle?) then that's what's up.

Just out of curiousity why am I an alt?

Your views out of the gate mimicked several people here and your sense of humor isn't something you would show 3 posts in either. You're an alt of someone who is here and is wanting to see how people react to you. If I still were a mod, I could cross check IPs to confirm.

I'm a goofy attention whore who knows his way around an internet forum and isn't shy. That's pretty much all there is to me.

So, Mr. Cassette, we heard you had information leading to Hillary Clinton's arrest...

I'm saving it for my sequel to The Untouchables.

Man, that must be one jacked up family tree if we're brothers, being that I'm nearly twice your age. How do Ma and Pa explain that one?

I reckon you dug up your mother, harvested her eggs, implanted them into your 16-year-old daughter, Bobby Joe, and then 9 months later...

 

[The Batlord]

It took me five minutes to come up with that and I'm not even sure it works.

 

[The Batlord]

I'm no geneticist, but, no, it doesn't. This isn't Young Frankenstein.

But if it's your mother's egg then biologically we'd be brothers. Bam. I don't know what that makes me to my mother/sister who bore me, but that's a matter for Jerry Springer.

 

[CiG]

This isn't Young Frankenstein.

Unfortunately.

 

[The Batlord]

Half-brothers, my father's genetics wouldn't be there, so we'd only share half, also I don't think women's eggs are viable once they're six feet under so to speak. Besides I'm far too Jewish for us to be related.

Half brothers still counts. And you just said you weren't a geneticist, so how do you know you can't harvest eggs from a corpse? In either case I invoke Jurassic Park logic. And I don't think your point about Jews makes sense.

 

[CiG]

Ready for a smooth segue?

 

[The Batlord]

Do Jews have Judgement Day?

 

[The Batlord]

Mom/sis always said you were a sinner.

 

[CiG]

The popular Jewish view on Judgement Day is that it only happens for individuals when they die and are judged, they don't believe in any kind of Ragnarok-esque event, though there are exceptions of course.
