Cheers Dec, me old fruit.

Dodens: get your own fucking catch phrases.

did you just call me decadent? ill take that as a compliment :danceboy:

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

They did away with the top hats over 5 years ago. They go for the spikey shin-guards these days. Hopefully they are getting more serious about their image.

Latest band photo:

can you say massive tools??

I never understood why people enjoy Dimmu Borgir, just one listen and I passed them off as a joke.

"Raabjørn speiler Draugheimens skodde". This is a good song, i don't care what other say.

What get's me the most about them is their names. Vortex? What the fuck?

Though they aren't nearly as bad as Storm Warrior.

I am.

Also, I've never listened to Doom Metal before, but from how people describe it, I think it sounds interesting. Could someone rec me some Doom?

 

[Zephyrus]

Lamented Souls

the vocalist's identity will surprise you.

Vortex! At least it's not Thunder Axe.

Start with:

Candlemass - Epicus Metallicus Doomicus
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath (get discog.)
Pentagram - Pentagram
Saint Vitus - Saint Vitus (get discog.)
Cathedral - Forest of Equilibrium

I believe that is exactly what he was implying

 

[Hatebreeder]

No matter what they do with their image they will still sound gay.
How did Shagrath go from Fimbulwinter to Dimmu Borgir is beyond me.

I thought For All Tid and Stormblast were pretty good in the grand scheme of black metal, and DCA was pretty good despite not really being black metal. Don't seem to listen to 'em often, though.

Please recommend me some relatively easy-to-find-but-not-obvious symphonic black metal.

Obtained Enslavement - Witchcraft.

So, would I be able to find this album at an FYE, Virgin, or local independent record store?

Ah, no chance. Even on Ebay, you'd have a very hard time tracking it down. Download the mp3s though, Symphonic black metal does not get much better.

 

[ohiogrinder]

I don't understand how you get taken seriously.

no, he's right, Dimmu is crap.
