The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

For some reason black metal and grind don't seem like they go together, one being punkish, and the other being the most right wing metal genre. But on the other hand, grind and raw black metal have something in common in the generally sloppy riffing style.

That's kinda what I was saying. Raw black metal definitely has punk-ish elements to it, while symphonic and cleaner black metal does not.
Punkish black metal >>>>>>>>>>> symphonic clean black metal!

"The Cult Is Alive" ftw!

I do like a lot of raw black metal, like Darkthrone, Moonblood, Graven, Seeds of Hate, etc. but I generally prefer non-raw black metal, like Nokturnal Mortum, Mortuary Drape, Grimness, Mjolnir, Haemoth, etc., because there is much more variety in sound, and the guitarwork is usually more memorable. A lot of raw black metal simply clones Transylvanian Hunger, which, while a good CD, is far from being the best black metal album ever.
 
I've always thought "TH" was overrated. As far as Darkthrone goes, my favorite albums are probably "A Blaze in the Northern Sky", "Panzerfaust", and "The Cult is Alive".

Haha, I think you are totally wrong here! "The Cult" was, in my opinion, their worst album. It was terribly recorded and the song writing went down a notch from the previous albums.


And I like clean symphonic black metal! Punkish bm is okay, but I think it doesnt come anywhere close to SCBM.
 
Well that's where we differ and that's what I like about the album is it's punkish feel.
