Hey.. assuming you know any, could you give me some names of bands that you'd consider forest metal? Because that genre sounds sweet. I'm guessing it's like Orchid and Morningrise type of stuff, eh?

Ulver - Nattens Madrigal. hahah

They supposedly recorded it in the forest.

What? :guh: It is, man.
Thick as a Brick is just overrated and not so good.. and Aqualung just doesn't compare, in my opinion. The Broadsword and the Beast is the one that comes the closest to it, but Songs From the Wood is still a bit better.
 
Has anyone ever noticed that the cover for that album is a PAINTING???

Incredible realism. Although, you can tell because his hair doesn't look "quite real (but does take time to notice)" and in the leaves, you can see minute paint strokes which leave behind a slight petrusion of paint. Why go through the trouble when you could take a photograph??? I dunno, bad ass none the less. :dopey:
