Ten Favorite Songs - can you do it?

[MadeInNewJersey]

I realize that YOU love the song, and the band, but after my Filosofem experience, they're taking a prioritized back seat.

And just b/c YOU consider the pagan/heathen/viking stuff I buy to be mediocre, who's to say it's not BETTER than Burzum to me? I mean, I don't know if it is or isn't yet, but considering the styles I go for, I'll take that chance every single time.

Just sayin'

With all that said, $14 at the End isn't bad at all, and I'll most likely order the first 2 Burzum records post-holidays. They've been on my "want" list for a long time now.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

The only thing that comes to mind that is probably a constant for me is:

1) Empyrium- Waldpoesie

Well, every time I bring up anything about OBJECTIVE QUALITY within music it always causes one hell of a fucking shitstorm so I'll just say this: until you have heard the album, you simply don't know what you're on about. Pull out your 50 favourite black/pagan metal albums and they still won't be able to hold a candle to Hvis. It's absolutely monumental, THE finest work of art I have EVER had the pleasure (?) to experience.

Dunkelheit - ruled! Listening to En Ring Til Aa Heske now, already love the deeper, more growling guitar tone.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Them's bold words.

Hvis Lyset Tar Oss Full-length, 1994 [13 reviews, average 96%]

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I'd love to look up the overall "reviews" of my favorites, but Encyclopaedia Metalium has the single worst server I've ever experienced.

 

[Dick Sirloin]

See, I knew this thread would be worthy of something: Dill has discovered the greatness of Burzum!

 

[J.]

Arcane Sun - We Stood With Time (not metal per se, but fuck it)

that Burzum is pretty good, but is way too repetitive. any fan of that song can never ever bitch about another repetitive song and be taken seriously. Ever. i can appreciate its classicness and all that hullabaloo, but fuck, give me Bathory or give me death.

 

[J.]

Hvis Lyset Tar Oss Full-length, 1994 [13 reviews, average 96%]

And I'll wager a fair amount are ANUSians.

 

[Erik]

Yeah OK, just go back to listening to fucking Hellveto and Belenos and then you fucking idiot

P.S. that Arcane Sun album is about 6/10 at best

 

[J.]

yeah, yeah, go back to listening to your two riff songs.

 

[dill_the_devil]

LOL @ Dick - it may still take me some time to enjoy the guitar-free records, but I think I'm pretty much SOLD! on Burzum's metal albums.

J. - don't suppose you'd care to recommend me some more Bathory tracks for the purpose of balance? One Rode To Asa Bay hasn't quite grabbed me just yet, although I will be giving it many more listens.

 

[Erik]

yeah, yeah, go back to listening to your two riff songs.

A Fine Day to Die
Through Blood by Thunder
Shores in Flames
Blood Fire Death

 

[J.]

I recommend To Enter Your Mountain, Blood and Iron and Twilight of the Gods

 

[dill_the_devil]

Nice one guys, lining them up now.

 

[Dick Sirloin]
