Too bad Taake isn't pronounced very similar to take ;Di aint play this said:Who Taakes this band seriously anyway lulawl
I haven't heard that particular song, but I think mouth harp can sound really nice in metal if used correctly. Bathory has a few examples of this.The Hubster said:Okay, yes, it's what I was thinking. It's a mouth harp.

i actually just found out that i have the album with me. the sound i am talking about is on the 3rd song from 3:06 on. i don't know what it is, but it sounds more like a synth is making the string boing sound.
that song is just not good. there are some really good melodies on the album, though.

thruldom said:For those who like Taake, do listen to Ragnarok as well, since Höst has joined them on vocals on their last record, very good, but more like Marduk, Watain and such bands, in other words fast-paced black metal of [random grim word]
well, i think the most creative bands in black metal come from Germany nowadays. Secrets Of The Moon, Lunar Aurora, Dark Fortress or Helrunar are good examples. especially the last two albums by Secrets Of The Moon ('Carved In Stigmata Wounds' and 'Antithesis') and the last three by Lunar Aurora ('Elixir Of Sorrow, 'Zyklus', 'Mond') are breathtaking.The Hubster said:The new creative frontier for Black Metal imo is Slavic (Pagan, NS), Central Asian (Pagan), Polish (Satanic), French (Satanic) and some (I can't believe I'm admitting it) lesser known American material (minimalistic/Satanic)... Slavic chiefly is the most creative at the moment. These cultural diversities working their way into Black Metal provides very interesting and new results.
The Hubster said:According to my friend's Norsk girlfriend, it's pronounced "tor-keh", and correctly spelt as Tåke.
My Arms said:As I said earlier in this thread its spelled both Taake and Tåke because aa = å in Norsk, aa is just an older (gr1mmer) way of spelling it. And its pronounced Taw-keh and why are we saying Norsk instead of norwegian?
