EPs that you wish could have been fleshed out into full studio albums

[Burkhard]

Battlefield - We Come To Fight (I like the Thrash Metal songs on this EP better than the (slightly) progressive stuff on their later two full-length albums)

Nuclear Assault - The Plague (I like the songs at least as much as the best on "Game Over" and definitely better than the stuff which followed afterwards)

Sacrilege - Behind the Realms of Madness (Not really sure if it fits here, because it's listed as "full-length" on Metal Archives, but I would have liked more than just 6 songs with a playing time of 26 minutes in this raw style which reminds me a lot of Détente's "Recognize No Authority".)

Watchtower - Concepts of Math: Book One (I just want more of this stuff!)

 

[The Butt]

Slayer - Haunting the Chapel

For once you and I agree on something.

TWILIGHT ZONE

 

[The Ozzman]

For once you and I agree on something.

TWILIGHT ZONE

We agree on liking the same Bodom releases

 

[Talos of Atmora]

We agree on liking the same Bodom releases

Hatebreeder better be one of them or I swear on me mum...

 

[The Ozzman]

Hatebreeder better be one of them or I swear on me mum...

First 3 and Blooddrunk

 

[slimshady67]

The Duke-Lamb of God.....the first 2 songs are unrelenting & powerful & then go into live tracks of previously released material, not that i am complaining but i was just hungry for more. Selfish, i know.

 

[Draehl]

Both Bolzer EPs, especially Aura.

Brutality - Hell on Earth EP

They still had thrash elements in their band at this time. It would have been interesting to hear what a full-length album would have sounded like.

 

[AllShallFall]

Keep of Kalessin - Reclaim

I loved that EP a lot. I wish Attila and Frost could have stayed and recorded a full-length

 

[CiG]

I do enjoy what Carpathian Forest did after this, but for me they never touched on this kind of greatness ever again.

Fullmoon - United Aryan Evil

Nazi or not, that thing is fucking masterful. Top 5 demo/ep of all time in the black metal world.

 

[CiG]

It's a demo album, not an EP. It's 30+ minutes long as it is.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

I thought we already extended this discussion to demos as well?

Fullmoon - United Aryan Evil

Nazi or not, that thing is fucking masterful. Top 5 demo/ep of all time in the black metal world.

Polish pride!

 

[Sophii]

Viraemia - S/T EP. I'm not all too big into Technical Slam, but that band appealed to me more than any other in that scene. Its full of wankery, but it actually compliments the bands theme instead of just being mindless wanking.

Dir en Grey - Missa. They had a weird starting sound, and I wish I had more of that than when they went straight into Gauze.

Mayhem - Deathcrush. My all time favorite Black Metal album. It felt too short.

 

[Phylactery]

Deathcrush is good, but nowhere near DMDS for me. It's primitive, raw and historically important, but the songwriting and atmosphere doesn't touch that first full length.

 

[Sophii]

I totally agree with you there.
I really like primitive black metal, thats why its more important to me.

DMDS has some of the best songs ever in the world though. Freezing Moon is one of the catchiest and darkest riffs on the fucking planet.

 

[PrincessHades]

Both Raubritter and Grimmage Volksmusik by Absurd.

 

[CiG]

Mayhem - Deathcrush.

I have a hard time even calling it a black metal record, though I understand the association of course.
