Everyone on gmd is now bashing the same band in which they fellated 12 months ago. Shits fucking hysterical. Anyhow, anybody have any samples of the new Blut Aus Nord? According to the gmd cunts no esta bueno? :confused:
 
Uh no, the ones bashing BAN include me and polarity, and we never really liked them I think? Maybe polarity liked TWTTG, I can't remember, but ya. J. also popped into the thread, and his hatred of the band is well known so no, this is not particularly hysterical

Anyway, who gives two shits about this band
 
I actually do like what I've heard from the old ones, and I'll prolly buy Ultima Thulée when the time is right, but this whole overhyping situation makes me very eager to tell everyone that Blut Aus Nord is utter shite at any given opportunity :cool:
 
I think they're decent, but HARDLY worth calling great, amazing, etc, and this applies to all their albums

of course imo
 
i have only heard the work which transforms poop into gold, which i think is fucking great.

inner mental cage = :kickass:

Quoted for truth.

The fact is, people have a knee jerk reaction to dislike something just because it becomes unanimously glorified.

"Oh everyone loves this, so I'll pretend to hate it just to get more attention".

:loco:
 
no

its more of a "god damn i cant believe i bought this cd because everyone said it ruled but it fucking sucks so im going to be pissed off" reaction
 
seriously, that album is frightening if in the right atmosphere.

right atmosphere: middle of nowhere in the middle of night hitting hairpins at 80mph. :kickass:

or sitting on your couch in near darkness, whatever. :loco:

I've always been surprised you and J. don't like BAN. I can see you not liking the later stuff but the first two albums seem like something you'd enjoy.
 
Question:

If that BAN album that everyone loves/hates (the worm which transmogrifies goats) was a movie soundtrack, name the film it would work best with.

Serious answers please. :loco:

I pick "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (the original).
