Wolves in The Throne Room

[Tangled]

Ive recently become fascinated with this band and enthralled by their sound.




I found this interview very interesting. It acctualy inspired me, and reinforced alot of my own thoughts about black metal and the creative process as a whole. I have thought along many similar lines regaurding black metal/music in general but was never able to put them into words like this (mainly because ive no one to speak to of such things)

Average Band.

 

[tagradh]

I like them, cool live.

 

[Admiral Awesome]

People i'v met argue so much about whether they are "true" black metal, but i think their sound is pretty cool

People who argue over shit like that make lol.

 

[General Zaroff]

I love Two Hunters.

I agree. Those arguments are pretty ridiculous and whether Wolves are true black metal or not shouldn't be why people don't like their music. On that note, I think this is a wonderful band.

Even though the first album is a piece of trash, Two Hunters is pretty great.

Explain this comment, please? I'm just curious as to why you think Diadem is a horrible album.

 

[Alter]

I love Two Hunters.

[S<issors]

Both of their albums are good, although I prefer Two Hunters by quite a bit.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Yeah... not impressed at all.

 

[Matt]

I like Diadem and Hunters a lot. Cool band.

 

[S<issors]

Well it is a metal forum

 

[MasterOLightning]

Diadems is a third-rate ripoff of Weakling - Dead As Dreams. And if you're going to blatantly rip off an album, you should at least pick one that was good. The songwriting is so overblown and meandering, not to mention how painfully unoriginal the whole thing is. At least "Vastness and Sorrow" and "Cleansing" are pretty concise for lengthy songs, and the production improved dramatically.

two hunters vastly triumphs over DOTS.

and they came to my city, and the show was only going to be 3$, but it was at a 21+ venue.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I sampled Two Hunters and enjoyed it quite a bit. However, I haven't felt compelled to buy it because much of it was a lot of pointless ambient wandering that never reached a climax.

 

[S<issors]

Weakling rules, too. My two favorite USBM bands.

 

[S<issors]

xasthur are aight, and leviathan's latest was cool, but yeah, not exactly a lot of quality acts to pick from

I never really liked this band.....I tried Diadem and just couldn't get into it. But I heard Two Hunters was getting a lot of praise when it first came out so I downloaded it and thought it was decent, kept listening to it, and learned to love it. So I was in Athens and they had a lot of rare cd's, so I bought Two Hunters (and Lunar Strain).

I love this band now I can't get enough of em.....I also love Diadem now. This band definitely grows on you. I can't wait until they finally tour the US (and hopefully it's not all 21+ shows)
