I am the Emperor

[JayKeeley]

Erik - what do you think of Borknagar out of interest?

 

[Erik]

I think the first album is pretty good

 

[J.]

Borknagar is indeed excellent. And if Erik doesn't think so, then he's high on cat pee fumes.

 

[Erik]

I don't know, I only have the first album and I like some other songs like "The Presence is Ominous" but let's just say Bork is not on #1 spot on my buy list.

Okay best I have gathered with a brief few reviews is that Anthems has more keyboards, clean vocals, variety, and less depression, but is still similar to Nightside.

Oh yes, and that it sounds like better audial poo coming through the speakers.

 

[Erik]

Anthems has more SUCKAGE. There are really good songs like "Ye Entrancemperium" and "The Loss and Curse of Reverence" and "With Strength I Burn" but generally it's much less of a "masterpiece" than 20391028390127489071289478912+e^3904789023 fanboys would have you believe.

[NAD]

april 2, of course

Good call.

Although heeding Erik's advice (he who has never steered me wrong in the realm of black metal), I'll look for it at half.com first.

 

[J.]

Go Nad! Go Nad! Go Nad!

 

[Erik]

It's not exactly bad it's just not essential. GURG

 

[NAD]

I'm going to be half.com's customer of the month for April, I can feel it now...

 

[Dev]

Anthems , by a hair

 

[JayKeeley]

Okay best I have gathered with a brief few reviews is that Anthems has more keyboards, clean vocals, variety, and less depression,

Yes, although I don't think there's anything depressing about ItNE.

but is still similar to Nightside.

No. I would imagine that even those voting for Anthems would have to disagree here.

Oh yes, and that it sounds like better audial poo coming through the speakers.

This is a thread in itself...

 

[Black Winter Day]

nads... Keri is TRUE but he is not necessarily always right!

 

[NAD]

Hey I said I'd still buy it yes? Okay then yes.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

ehn... I went with Anthems, by a small percentage though.

 

[Demonspell]

Anthems, if only because With Strength I Burn and Ye Entrancemperium own my soul.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Nope, I am not the culprit. Look towards one of the moderators.

I pick Anthems.

Don't look at me! My modding privs have been revoked.
