[Autumnal]

thick, husky voice of Tricky himself in combination with the strong yet sweet female vocals of his then girlfriend, whose name escapes me. QUOTE]

Martina Topley-Bird, whose album 'Quixotic' is also pretty good.

I have to list:

Gridlock: "Further" & "Trace"
Mum: "Finally We Are No One"
Callisto: "True Nature Unfolds"
Lamb: "What Sound"
cLOUDDEAD: "Ten"
Dalek: "Absence"

Stuff by Twerk, Metamatics, Proem, and Minotaur Shock have been making some rounds in my cd player, as well as CTRL - "Loaded Weapons and Darkened Days".

 

[Manbient]

its okay. it bored me to tears at first, but its growing on me. they are very "influenced." they like to stick to form.

? what the fuck?

 

[JoeVice]

? what the fuck?

ten sisi asked what people think of the new enslaved album, and i responded.

 

[illidurit]

some of my favorite more obscure folk acts

bukkene bruse
fjällstorm
fotheringay
gryphon
mormos
spirogyra
tom rush
tudor lodge

Enslaved is perfect prog metal, straight from the veins of black metal. Ivar and Mikael should do something.

No thank you. As much as i love both bands, I really do not think they would combine well.

 

[Don Corleone]

DJ Shadow - Entroducing

excellent

 

[derbeder]

how is 'the private press'? i still haven't heard it. is it as cool as endtroducing?

 

[Don Corleone]

no, it isnt =( some good tracks on there, though. but of course, anything dj shadow is good so it's always worth buying.

but my latest suggestion will be dj vadim. "ussr: the art of listening"
killer album (ninja tune)

enslaved has never really been tied to "what black metal is all about"...id say a band like darkthrone fits that description a little better.

Lol....you haven't heard the new album then?

It turns out Darkthrone have been taking the piss all along.

Just a bunch of hippies who couldn't play psychadelic rock so turned to BM instead.

I used to hate them but since discovering this I love them

Too Old Too Cold

Like a BM motorhead, rediculous but funny.

i have heard the new album. anyone who took darkthrone "seriously" at ANY point should be shot in the face with a 12 gauge. no black metal is "serious"...thats not my point. im just saying musically...darkthrone have stuck to the primitive and regressive ideals blackmetal was formed in. enslaved have always taken one step forward and two steps to the side.

 

[Powers]

I think the likes of Grishnack and Rob Darken take themselves seriously.

And very true, Darkthrone sound like they always did.

 

[:Wreath:]

It's funny to see how some people seem to believe their taste in music can be objectively superior to anybody elses...

 

[Opethian666]

The worth of your musical opinion is measured by the size of your penis.
Therefore, I pwn all you noobs!

 

[:Wreath:]

^ you wouldn't happen to be one of them porn black guys?

 

[Opethian666]

^ No, I'm one of the lesbian asian ones.

 

[:Wreath:]

^ so how does that make your penis so big... ?

I'll check it out. Also, I think it was you who mentioned Shpongle - good call. You ever heard any DJ Zrip? thats good stuff also. And I've really been getting into the Cafe del Mar mixes. Ambient stuff.

 

[Kenneth R.]

could be a strap on

that's the case with most internet personalities.
