NO!!!
Who in the hell told you Frost is a bad album? It's awesome.
It was at the bottom of every list. But, yeah I'm still going to pick it up.

Frost is my favourite and their most exciting, musically.
imo out of the entire discography, Frost is leaning the least towards Viking (musically) and is the most raw overall work that Enslaved have produced.
I also feel it has much less of Bjornson's experimental thought in it, which is surprising considering that Vikingligr Veldi previously painted some interesting soundscapes through it's repetition.
I feel Frost is certainly the most "pure" Black Metal album that Enslaved did, perhaps even more so than Blodhemn would be 2 albums later. It is clear that here, back in 1994, Ivar Bjornson was still getting his feet wet, and trying to find balance in what he wanted to achieve musically.
In summary though - Frost is no less important than any other album in the Enslaved repetiore, they are all essential.

Armageddon, you have clearly pointed out your dislike for Enslaved. No one is hearing it anymore. I suggest that you post a band/album that you like and leave that open for discussion. And to be receptive to both positive and negative thoughts. I, for one am curious as to what type of music that you listen to; bands/albums. C'mon man, you have it in you. you can DO IT!!
Last 5 albums listened to:
Burzum - Hvis lyset tar oss
Lustmord - The Place Where the Black Stars Hang
Robert Fripp - The Gates of Paradise
R.E.M. - UnFaggot R.E.M.
Gustav Holst - Savitri
It's a reasonably representative sample, though metal and classical probably make up a larger percentage of my listening habits than is reflected here.
Black Stars is possibly the most classic of all dark ambient albums. B just recently remastered it as well, and it sounds even clearer and "involving".
Dark ambient? sounds good. Mumble, can you give me a point of reference. Or a band that is similiar?
do you prefer to listen to your music alone in the dark in your room? just a question, dont get anal
