im too true for you

None of them are important, those are just good.

What do you think of Satyricon ?

What do you think of Satyricon ?

Their first three albums were the epitome of the early 90's black metal scene. Their newer stuff is decent, but I would recommend starting with "Dark Medieval Times" or "Nemesis Divina" if you haven't heard any of them; the former is good for lo-fi, buzzing black metal with many an acoustic interlude and subtle ambience, and the latter is better for heavier, decently-produced BM with ambience in a little less abundance.

^Thanks , you've been very helpful

hey, Dodens...cheers for the Zarathustra rec. In Hora Mortis is a really fucking good cd

 

[Hatebreeder]

No they weren't.

The Shadowthrone is their best.

Well then, what do YOU think is the apex of the second wave of black metal?

I still prefer DMT or ND to it. Still an excellent album, though.

 

[Wires & Waves]

man just the mere suggestion is ridiculous, satyricon were never more than a peripheral band

 

[Blacken the angel]

You should have said IMO

 

[Hatebreeder]

It's sure as hell not Satyricon. They weren't really a major player. Hvis Lyset Tar Oss, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, and Under A Funeral Moon would be better candidates by far.

I agree to an extent, but Satyricon was pretty influential in starting the folk/medieval metal scene.

/ Graveland*?

both their lp's were 1994 vs DMT's 93 but still

 

[Hatebreeder]

*Enslaved?

I never said Satyricon was the ONLY one. Their influence may not have been vast, but there's no denying their mark on the scene.

 

[Solipsist]

i know im out of date on this but crimson massacre - the luster of pandemonium is pretty good i guess...probably the only important recent DM album outside of the chasm's stuff? and maybe stargazer

How about Immolation's outputs and (possibly) Negativa as well?

 

[Hatebreeder]

They were in the same vein as the bands you mentioned and therefore were quite similar in who they influenced. The two are synonomous, as far as I'm concerned.

Ulver?

Empyrium?

(Enslaved & Graveland, but they were already mentioned)

 

[Hatebreeder]

Why is everyone acting like I worship Satyricon as God or something? I apologize for not citing these other bands, but still, they did have an influence.

Well, The Luster of Pandemonium is at least one fifth listenable. The Hyperborean's Epitaph is a great instrumental

Uhm, wait a sec, so Gorguts doesn't appeal to you, but Crimson Massacre does? Wow

Nope you are wrong, the album in fantastic in all ways

 

[Wires & Waves]

nah i like gorguts

 

[Mort Divine]

If by all ways you mean zero ways then I agree.

I like satyricon. I did not like them at first.
