GMD Votes: Black Metal prelims + discussion

[The Butt]

is actually actually dead last

Sums up your opinion quite nicely

Either way, the bm list will have more diversity as long as its not dominated by norwegian bands. Thrash was just the usual suspects, death a bit less so. Trad metal will be boring if its just maidenpriestsabbathyay. Trad doom should be interesting as long as its not sabbath heavy.

@ buttface:

Is that right? C'mon now Craster, you should know better than that. So how many people here think that the best of what black metal has to offer is better than the top death and thrash albums? Ah whatever, well see how it turns out when we vote for them in the final list ...

 

[The Butt]

I'm not saying that BM is hands-down the best genre (I think it is, but difference of opinion), but saying it is dead last is retarded bro.

And yes, I do believe that the best black metal is more intellectually stimulating than the best thrash or death metal. I love thrash and death as much as the next guy but still.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Dead last when compared to the other three subgenres i mentioned(which it is), learn how to read you fucking retard.

 

[The Butt]

I understand we were only talking about the three other genres. You're still wrong though.

I'M SORRY YOU ARE DELUDED BRO. IT'S OKAY. WE CANT ALL BE WINNERS.

I basically just posted to boost the handful of good BMish bands, unlike the generally shitty bands such as Mayhem and Darkthrone that get fellated around here by all the BM carousel cocksuckers.

It's a question of values. I really value total works of art and black metal tends to produce the most cohesive records where aesthetics, lyrics, ideology and sound unify into a total work of art. Black metal also strives to communicate the depths of the human condition and metaphysical reality in a way that I rarely find in other genres. That would be the reason I consider black metal superior to the other genres. It aims the highest, so when it hits the mark, it creates the truest and most pure works of art.
