DRUDKH - Microcosmos

[Hell Mike]

Is anyone else familiar with this band's recent development among "hipsters"? Pretty disturbing. Microcosmos is so weak in comparison to other releases. Still better than Blood in our Wells, though.

I still haven't figured out what a hipster is exactly, but I think it's kinda kool that they're into art for the white aryan elite.

 

[Vittra]

This my friend, is what a hipster is.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

he needs to be savagely murdered in the woods

 

[Ellestin]

preferably raped beforehand.

still haven't listened to that album.

 

[Evil?]

Vittra, that is a perfect hipster picture.

i thought hipsters were into mastodon, lamb of god, satyricon, southern lord's roster and other mall metal.

 

[swizzlenuts]

Hey now, Mastodon is ace.

that stuff is too commercial even for hipsters.

 

[Ars Magna]

Someone should send that picture to Varg.

 

[Night Mare]

i put mastodon in the same category as current opeth and meshuggah....bands that appeal to hipsters because it makes them feel like they can say "i listen to heavy metal, isnt it cool man" and also the folks that feel that if you dont "get" the band, they are smarter because "they are so progressive and can play 1/4 polyrhythms on a 20 string guitar whilst sucking on swisher sweets"

yes, i've heard all three and they struck me as nothing special at all. i know im generalizing and i know people really do enjoy these bands, and i know im judging them somewhat on stuff beyond their control and im ok with that

 

[swizzlenuts]

They have four albums, and you're opinion is just wrong. Except for the hipster part.

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Funny. Since someone posted that hipster-Burzum-shirt pic, I have seen not ONE but TWO hipsters in SF wearing Det Som Engang Var shirts!!!! GOD I WANT TO KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mastodon released one of the VERY BEST metal tracks of this decade: "Hearts Alive"

 

[swizzlenuts]

The Czar and The Last Baron > Hearts Alive

 

[Agalloch]

The Czar and The Last Baron > Hearts Alive

Blasphemer!!!!!

 

[neal]

yeh those arent even close to Hearts Alive

i didnt start seeing any significant amount of 'hipster/non-metal' types at Mastodon shows until this year when the new one came out, and i go to shows in san francisco
