Who here like Arcturus?

[simonc2]

I heard an awsume song on the radio the other day that got me interested. It was of The Sham mirrors. Any suggestions of albums/tracks to check out.

 

[Ivanhoe]

Every single one.

 

[metalathiest]

Yes indeed, get The Sham Mirrors, its fucking awesome, Arcturus is brilliant!.

How the fuck did that get on the radio btw?

 

[Spike]

Sounds like you've already got TSM, if your after Arcturus stuff in a similar vein, go for 'La Masquerade Infernale', their previous albums...... the ones before that are alot close to having black metal roots... but they still have the distinctly acrytarcy/garmy quality to them

....

Me misses teh garmster.

 

[Immortality]

The Sham Mirrors is brilliant. "For To End Yet Again"....wow

 

[AfAiRJudgEmenT]

Yeah the Sham Mirrors is a great album. I just got it a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't get a chance to listen to it as much as I want to.

Guess this is a good time as any to go and listen to the album again

 

[manuelgv]

Buy them all
they only have 4
avoid disguised masters...

 

[Spike]

I actually FORGOT about 'Disguised Master's.....

Then again, I suppose that's not necessarily sich a bad thing. :Smug:

Though it does have it's own.... how shall we sat it, 'unique' qualities.

 

[Yetti]

i like 'em

 

[embattler]

Ya, there a good band

 

[no country for old wainds]

Indeed they are.

 

[Demonspell]

La Masquerade and Sham Mirrors are amazing...Sverd is one of the most talented keyboardists I have ever heard.

 

[Dev]

The Sham Mirrors is in my top 10

 

[svenske kocken]

Ah, Arcturus is wonderful. So unique, so crazy, so brilliant. And Garm is one of the best singers around. Too bad he has left the band.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

Ad Astra-from La masquerade infernal -best song
The Sham Mirrors-Best Album
now thats AWSOME

 

[Shadowthrone]

Arcturus are fucking awesome, I love every single one of their albums.

I even like Disguised Masters, but I guess I haven't heard all of it that much yet, just some tracks here and there.

 

[Collapse Generation]

I love Arcturus, it's definitely one of my favorite bands.

And I was so lucky to actually attend their first official concert since their start around 1991.

They played here in the city I live, on the 2nd of May this year.

And Øyvind Hægeland from Spiral Architect did a great job as their vocalist.

I took 30 pictures and filmed 9 small videoclips.

Definitely one of the best concert's I've been to.

I'd say that The Sham Mirrors probably is in my top 5 albums of all time list.

 

[Static]

Arcturus are simply sublime.

 

[Voitto]

If you listen to Arcturus then you must beware of rap.

[Musically, they don't know any limit.]

In my opinion, "Aspera Hiems Symfonia" is their the best album.

[Rap-free

[mindflesh]

The best thing about them: They made my favourite poem into a song! ("Alone")
