EPIC QUESTIONNAIRE THREAD

Akercocke is mediocre at best and nowhere near classic Iron Maiden wtf.

If you want a black/death hybrid go and listen to Nox Intenpesta's Damnanus - Dominum if you haven't since it is light years ahead of anything by Akercocke. It does lean on the black metal side, though.

Also stop being a whore and rate the current mixtape before your trip.

I'll give it a listen, but Akercocke seems to be seriously underrated around here so I don't expect it will be better. If it's half as good that's still worth a look in, though.

And yeah I'll try to rate that list, but there's stuff I need to sort out so no promises. Right now I'm trying to whittle down my entire music library to fit on my 7gb ipod .

You might like this as well. It doesn't do anything new but its atmosphere is so convincing that I don't care. I also discovered it in one of the mixtape playlists (H.P Lovecraft theme).



I've been looking for good black/death hybrids myself lately as they are 2 of my favourite genres. I should start a thread in the recommendation sub forum.

Neither of those bands sound anything like Akercocke . The first one was okay, but they had too many of those Dark Funeral style overdone riffs which are just tremelo picking a minor chord then shifting the chord down one fret and tremelo picking it in the opposite direction (or something like that).

Innsmouth is more to my liking - some straight up old school death with a touch of added melody.

 

[Phylactery]

I didn't say they sounded like Akercocke, I said they were black/death metal and are better than Akercocke which I stand by. Can't really recommend anything similar to Akercocke as I don't like them.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Tbh I tend not to like much blackened death metal (particularly not in the Belphegor vein). I think of Akercocke as more of a progressive death metal band, which is a style seldom done well so I'm glad when a band pulls it off.

 

[Phylactery]

Well at least we agree that Belphegor is shit.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Behemoth on the other hand...

 

[LOUD METAL]

 

[Sirjack]

uh ..l think The goat of Mendes and Choronzon are awesome l haven't heard anything else but..
and early Behemoth..when it was early shit Behemoth was ok
Innsmouth is BM riffs done in a boring DM way...and not so good riffs either

 

[CiG]

Bullshit, they have awesome riffs.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Recent Behemoth has ruined early Behemoth for me, not to mention how mainstream they've become. In Poland Nergal is Simon Cowell.

 

[CiG]

Behemoth are so irredeemable...

In Poland Nergal is Simon Cowell.

lmao.

I think @CASSETTEISGOD is some kind of bot to get this forum going again. @MetalAges, comment?

Secrets will never be revealed.

 

[The Butt]

It would just be endless slam/pornogrind.

It'd be just deathcore.

I filled a bunch of this out bits and pieces at a time and then left it too long and it all disappeared. I'm not doing it again.
