Is it just me or does a large majority of black metal suck?

Alright, pack it in boys. This is reaching peak levels of retardness.

Autism does not count as being retarded, you bigot

im not going to bother reading through most of that shitstorm, but just by skimming through a few of those posts im fairly sure HBB is correct on this one

Also, did someone here refer to Witchaven as black metal?

Most good black/thrash bands have good riffs because they are thrash metal bands first and foremost. And we all know thrash is king as far as riffs go.

Let's do a poll thread about what the best black/thrash bands are and then do another poll for the Top 10 black/thrash bands

I said they're black/thrash.

I must say I never really liked any black-thrash. Somehow those two just don't do it for me when they're together.

I know I'm the outcast in this thread, but i've never been a huge fan of the genre black metal in particular in general. The sound quality is typically very low like it was recorded in a garage, there tends to be less melody, both which are very unpleasing to my ears. Not saying anyone shouldn't like the genre, it's just what I've noticed why I tend not to like much black-metal XD

 

[Mort Divine]

there tends to be less melody

no there doesn't?

 

[Zonfar]

in MY experience with black metal there is less melody. Obviously there can be melody in black metal, i'm just speaking from what I have heard.

Black metal would be much better if it were produced like a Dragonforce album.

You must only be listening to war metal and shit like that since even in the entry-level stuff like Immortal, Burzum, "golden-era" Darkthrone there is an abundance of melody.

Either that or you're confusing "lack of melody" with "abrasive production". Either way, gg nub.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

gg nub.

... and you think that blackened thrash metal is black metal. GG nub.

 

[The Butt]

...but it is.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

...but it is.

You probably only think that because you got into metal through Burzum and atmoshit. Do you even listen to thrash brah?

 

[The Butt]

I actually got into metal through Sabbath, Metallica and Slayer, but nice try, ye feculent bastard.

I listen to some thrash, not as much as I used to as a teenager. Basically just Slayer, Coroner, Artillery, Sodom on occasion, and assorted black/thrash stuff. 99% of straight-up thrash just hasn't turned my crank in years.
