Old Man's Child

[Papa Josh]

That's cool and I think they suck balls. But what makes them honest? The fact that they sound like ass splat?

 

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]

I got into Old Man's Child when Born of the Flickering (when it was an actual band, and not Tom's little musical chairs ego-show) came out. I thought it was pretty good, but I haven't listened to it in a million years. Other than that, and a few tracks off Revelation 666, I think they're the epitome of generic synth "black" metal. Not bad, just kinda, meh.

"in defiance..." and "revelation 666" are pretty damn good imo. dimmu's original stormblast was fucking badass when i first heard it, too. dimmu gets no credit considering the actual musical talent, even if some feel they lack the passion or whatever. both bands actually *gasp* change time signatures and have some progressive (omg noooooo) qualities. cradle of filth can rot in the garbage though. i wouldn't consider either as black... more like gray at best.
nokturnal mortum.... ahh goat horns is one of my favorite all-time albums.

That they make their music from their heart.

 

[Necro Joe]

...and you know this how?

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

They are nothing special, I like couple of their songs and that's it. And why the fuck Dimmu Borgir is one of the "three miserable of metal" MetalNoob?

Of Black metal... Mainly because they seem to represent BM as a whole (being the more mainstream) and they don't play anything resembling what BM really is. And they suck....

Why would anyone make NS music if they didn't truely believe in it?

 

[Necro Joe]

Because its confrontational and shocking. Were Venom serious about their Satanic lyrics? What role do you think Nazism fulfils for bands these days when nothing is considered extreme anymore?

 

[Hatebreeder]

That they make their music from their heart.

You could say this about any musical artist, but it doesn't make it true.

 

[Astrum]

HB, what did you used to be anyway? I cant recall the old name.

Just out of curiosity.

 

[Seditious]

I enjoy the song "Enslaved and Condemned", but are there better songs by them?

'In Quest Of Enigmatic Dreams' (Acoustic folk, not metal, but easily their best song)
