[Krow]

Arctic Thunder out today!

Yes! Will be waiting for me when I get home from work.

 

[EspaDa]

Don't know why it has such poor rating on RYM. Looking forward to hearing it.

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

Don't know why it has such poor rating on RYM. Looking forward to hearing it.

Maybe @H.P. Lovecraft registered a bunch of accounts to give it a bad rating.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

This just came out yesterday, psychedelic Middle Eastern drone/prog is how they describe themselves, from Sydney. Really well done.

That description got me and the music got me harder. I love a middle eastern bend. Wish there was more without being kitschy.

Have you heard Secret Chiefs 3? I think these guys are massively influenced by them.

Nah, what intro album would you recommend?

 

[Satanstoenail]

Not too sure really, they've got heaps of stuff but I think they got more middle-eastern influenced as they went.

Don't know why it has such poor rating on RYM. Looking forward to hearing it.

for kicks i had a look at my friends ratings for each darkthrone, 'cause my friends are way more trustworthy than RYM's shitty charts. number in brackets is how my friends' rating compares to the RYM rating - so in SOULSIDE JOURNEY's case the RYM rating is 3.52, etc.

soulside journey 3.58 from 177 (+0.06)
a blaze in the northern sky 3.86 from 294 (-0.01)
under a funeral moon 3.87 from 245 (0.00)
transilvanian hunger 3.85 from 282 (0.00)
panzerfaust 3.74 from 178 (+0.01)
goatlord 3.09 from 87 (+0.24)
total death 3.06 from 75 (-0.11)
ravishing grimness 3.05 from 57 (-0.26)
plaguewielder 2.82 from 54 (-0.23)
hate them 3.12 from 58 (-0.22)
sardonic wrath 3.11 from 62 (-0.16)
the cult is alive 3.01 from 87 (-0.21)
FOAD 3.09 from 96 (-0.14)
dark thrones and black flags 3.18 from 79 (+0.02)
circle the wagons 3.26 from 78 (-0.04)
the underground resistance 3.19 from 82 (-0.26)
arctic thunder 2.96 from 23 (-0.27)

so this is actually the album my friends consider most overrated by RYM thusfar lol. still early days with so few ratings though.

 

[The Ozzman]

That's probably not inaccurate tbh. I mean, why does anyone care about Darkthrone past the black metal albums anyway?

 

[H.P. Lovecraft]

Maybe @H.P. Lovecraft registered a bunch of accounts to give it a bad rating.

Oh drat, you got me...

 

[no country for old wainds]

That's probably not inaccurate tbh. I mean, why does anyone care about Darkthrone past the black metal albums anyway?

i predict: 6 pages

 

[EspaDa]

FOAD is a great album, these ratings are fucking too low.

 

[EspaDa]

Shit Flames goes on

 

[The Ozzman]

Shit Flames goes on

What...the fuck? Even I've given up in this band and I loved everything up to Come Clarity
