The Kvltest Ov The Kvlt Black Metal

[Under The Oak]

Who are they? So far, I've been recommended by friends to hear Deathspell Omega and Funeral Mist, and I love both of them. What are other accomplished, very underground BM bands?

I hate ANUS.com. I pretty much have everything they recommend, but their reviews are terrible and unhelpful. NSBM sounds interesting (though I'm NOT a racist or Socialist), but I can never find any of that stuff.

half of which could have been found on the link he was too disinclined to read.

I hate ANUS.com. I pretty much have everything they recommend, but their reviews are terrible and unhelpful. NSBM sounds interesting (though I'm NOT a racist or Socialist), but I can never find any of that stuff.

"NSBM" is such a broad (I'd say 'stupid') term, it can't really be called 'interesting' in and of itself. There's plenty of "yos wes hatin' jews" rubbish going around, for a start. The Fullmoon in my list is the ultimate NSBM album (well, actually a demo), I suggest at least downloading it (though there's a re-release on the way). Or try Ad Hominem if you want something at the violent end of the spectrum which doesn't suck.

The Anus reviews aren't entirely unhelpful, but his ridiculous writing style prevents a good majority from understanding what the feck he's going on about. Good taste, though.

I've heard some of Summoning's stuff and I love it, but no one on SoulSeek shares any of it. You wouldn't share your SoulSeek name with me, would you? I have a little over 3,000 music files up for download.

Also heard Blut Aus Nord, and I really cant get into their new one much at all. Their other albums aren't bad, but TWWTG just gives me a massive migrain when I put it on.

 

[BikerMiceFromMars]

i recommend ditching soulseek, and using dc++ or irc instead

I second this.

Countess are ol'school inspired, occultist/satanist BM with a certain seductive flavour. It's quite unique-sounding stuff thanks to the unusual leadwork in particular. Vocals are bad on some albums.

 

[Cythraul]

How good is Countess? I've seen people fellate them but have no idea what they're like.

I think I'm the only one who thinks they absolutely fucking suck.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Glad to see Dark Tribe on your list, GoD.

How is the Stutthof album you mentioned? I've been recommended it before.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

I think I'm the only one who thinks they absolutely fucking suck.

In their defense, they sound that way on purpose.

Oh ok, I guess that means they're good at sucking.

It's one that I lost many months ago thanks to a reformat, without having fully explored it. I remember it was good, I remember it was Greek NSBM and I remember it had choral parts. Think it was pretty raw, too. Sorry I'm not more useful. I'm now inspired to re-download it.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Oh ok, I guess that means they're good at sucking.

The song "De Wilde Jacht" owns you. I don't like them as much as many seem to, mind you.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

Tormentor – Anno Domini (I'll leave this even though it's first wave, just 'cause it's underrated)

Uhhh...MORE THAN ESSENTIAL.

Oh, and to certain cunts: COUNTESS OWNS YOU.

 

[no country for old wainds]

I was being pretty harsh with that, I consider many of them must-buys now I think about it.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

I'm just surprised that I like a lot of the bands on your list.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Glad to see Dark Tribe on your list, GoD.

Bah, thanks to fags on DC I only have the first half of that album. It blatantly rules though.

 

[Cythraul]

The song "De Wilde Jacht" owns you. I don't like them as much as many seem to, mind you.

I cannot possibly be owned. I'll just keep listening to my lame Norweigan black metal. Sorry.
