Who at the RC forums has the most similar musical taste to yours?

[NAD]

Can't, Mr. Brownstone is on.

 

[Demonspell]

I think I align with either Jay, BWD, or NAD the most, although the tastes of most of the people here are too eclectic to avoid anything close to total agreement, which is a good thing...

 

[Krilons Resa]

Umm...I dont really know cuz I have only been around this particular forum for about a month and a half now. Probably npearce, seeing how we are usually on the same wavelength with a lot of music. I have noticed JayKeeley liking a lot of the same stuff Im into as well.

Time will tell...

 

[Papa Josh]

What about Black Sabbath or Metallica? I know personally I'm much more into those two bands than Maiden.

Sabbath?
Metallica?

If we pretend that St. Anger didn't happen... but I guess that's their "X Factor", but then what does that make the "loaded" albums?

 

[Nate The Great]

Bloodstainedwalls, NAD, and Dreamlord all have things in common with my tastes in music.

NAD: I feel so much closer to you now that you've portrayed your love for me in public. Maybe that trip to San Fransisco is in order after all . . .

 

[NAD]

I'm telling you man, it's fate.

 

[J.]

Oh yeah, Kristallnacht was one of my early finds! I take it that you have Of Elitism And War then? I should have a copy arriving sometime next week, been WAY too long since I last listened to 'em. Fucking dirty, cool keyboards if you don't imagine them coming from a Disney soundtrack.

I'd also recommend Gontyna Kry, Ad Hominem, Temnozor and Wewelsburg...off the top of my head, and in that order too I guess! Some hella good stuff out there.

yeah, it's Of ELitism and War. Really nasty, gritty black metal. Gontyna Kry was gonna be my next venture.


Jay - I've heard a few songs from NM, but didn't like it too much.

Iron Maiden make me laugh. They're so happy!

 

[JayKeeley]

I think I own all Nokturnal Mortum releases. Difficult to pick a favourite though...

 

[J.]

in all fairness, I really didn't give the songs a fair chance at the time. And with my renewed interest in black metal, I would probably like them.

 

[JayKeeley]

If it wasn't for their political leanings towards all things NSBM and swastika-emblazoned, I think they'd get a lot more appreciation from 'across the board'. Let's face it, they would have probably stayed with The End Records otherwise and currently been sitting happy alongside Enslaved and Darkthrone.

 

[J.]

where is the best place to start?

 

[JayKeeley]

It's tough to say because they have a few albums that are quite atmospheric with plentyful use of keyboards, and a 'big' production sound. Most people think that either Goat Horns or Lunar Poetry are their best albums. Now, if you want something a lot more down to earth, toned down production, and folk driven (using actual folk instruments etc), you need to hear either NeChrist or The Taste of Victory - the latter being quite remarkable considering it's only an EP release. Erik had it at the #3 spot in his top 10.

 

[JayKeeley]

Oops - posted at the same time as Erik, heh.

 

[J.]

so basically, just get everything NM has released, yes?

 

[JayKeeley]

Gosh - I totally forgot "To the Gates of Blasphemous Fire"!!! That is a blitzkrieg assault - kind of like the big battle in Return of the King set to black metal war anthems.

 

[NAD]

Goat Horns is pretty cool, it took me a long time to get into. Still think the cover is lame though.

 

[Ayeka]

If we pretend that St. Anger didn't happen... but I guess that's their "X Factor"

The X Factor SLAYS St Wanker!

 

[Hell Mike]

Erik and Lutz has the most similar music tastes to mine if you add some stuff to them both and withdraw the funeral doom (I don't hate it, I just find it uninteresting) and the girly-music.

 

[Doom]

I'd get Lunar Poetry for NM. If you wanted to download something, Perun's Celestial Silver is probably one of my favourite BM songs ever, so get that.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

I think Lunar Poetry is my favorite NM release, closely followed by To the Gates of Blasphemous Fire. Peruns Celestial Sun is an awesome song. I love the background synth rythm in On the Moon too.
