The Meaning of Prometheus: The Discipline of Fire and Demise

[anonymousnick2001]

Oh. I missed your explanation. Thanks.

Is it ok if I thought that album was fucking boring? No In the Nightside Eclipse or Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk there.

(ps. if you think this album sucks, this is not the thread for that, I don't care how good they are, I just wan't to understand it)

[Scourge of Malice]

^ ya, thats what i was referring to also

 

[Cynical]

No, that was Anthems..., this one is Emperor having already impressed idiots with technical skill, now trying to get the world record for Drum Performance Most Representative of Julian Clary.

Nah, Anthems was all about impressing idiots by including keyboards and maudlin sentimentality in otherwise "extreme" metal.

That said, I'm afraid I don't get what Julian Clary has to do with the drum performance on Prometheus, even after doing a google search to find out who the fuck he is.

He's homosexual, that's all you really need to know.

 

[TylerTheNuke]

uh huh, so no new ideas about what this album means? Oh well, I can probably figure it out eventually on my own.

 

[Hammer of Might]

It is a story about metal musicians who, having long since blown their creative wad, decided to impress idiots with their technical skill.

Oh riiiiiiiiight, I get what you're saying there.

Subtly clever.

 

[Terrifyer]

And succeeding, I might add.

you like at the gates

 

[no country for old wainds]

you like at the gates

I don't follow.

 

[Erik]

GoD, this is where you close the thread due to excessive suckage

 

[no country for old wainds]

Yessir.

Though I am interested in a reply from Terrifyer, what with ATG's drumming infinitely owning Emperor's'n'all.
