Black Metal

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by naboo, Nov 11, 2006.

  1. So are they any blades out there into Black Metal? I personally love the genre, although it took me probably the longest out of all the metal subgenres to get into, but now as you can see, I sport the Bathroy avatar :cool:.

    Currently I'm really into Enslaved and Summoning. Eld by Enslaved hasn't left my CD player the past couple of days.

    My all time favorites are: Burzum, Enslaved, Satyricon, Summoning, Bathory, Drudkh, Ulver, and Immortal.

    EDIT: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XO4MR13C
    There's a link to a good playlist of Black Metal songs that I made (yeah I know it's in three of my posts now haha.. oh well).
     
  2. yeah, im into black metal somewhat. i like opeth quite a bit. dimmu borgir has some alright stuff. emperor is the shit!!!!
     
  3. There's a few tolerable Black Metal artists that deserve their dues. But I just can't get into the genre that much. Now you wanna take it a step further and go for the discussion about Cradle of Filth....are they black metal, or goth sell out pussy bitches? That's always a fun topic.

    And man...their outfits are just ridiculous. They look utterly silly. But still, if that's what they want to do, that's their choice. I would just never wear it :p
     
  4. dimmu borgir kick ass i spose u guys dont listen to cannibal corpse ?
     
  5. Immortal is fucking fantastic. I always sport the Immortal patch on my backpack.

    Im really into the Avant Garde shit, stuff like Archturus. Limbonic Art etc.

    But I love older stuff aswell, Bathory tops the list, but Ancient, Abigor, Burzum, are in the list aswell.

    As much as I hate the NSBM message, theyres alot of good bands. Bands such as Thunderbolt, Nokturnal Mortum, Ad Hominem are fucking great.

    Nokturnal Mortum are great at composing the fine art of black metal.

    Although I theyre some bands that I despise. Such as Infernum and the like.
     
  6. I just made a mix of about 12 of my favorite Black Metal songs for you guys to check out. It's not the "trooest" list of whatever, but I love these songs. It's uploading. I'll have it up in a bit.

    The track list:
    Enslaved - 793 (The Battle of Lindisfarne)
    Enslaved - Living Beneath the Hammer
    Agalloch - Fire Above, Ice Below
    Immortal - Withstand the Fall of Time
    Leviathan - Fucking Your Ghost in Chains of Ice
    Summoning - Long Lost to Where No Pathway Goes
    Summoning - Land of the Dead
    Ulver - Lost In the Forest of Gnomes
    Satyricon - Walk The Path of Sorrow
    Satyricon -Min Hyllest Til Vinterland
    Burzum - My Journey To The Stars
    Bathory - One Rode To Asa Bay

    Note: I changed a few of the song titles to English.

    And damn you and your icon Chaohinon! Heh, just kidding. Thunderbolt sound pretty cool, thanks.

    14Funeral88Moon. No I haven't heard those two. Any good?
     
  8. Eh... not really of fan of black metal, for a few reasons..

    a) the gimmicks... I know, all metal has some form of gimmick, but black metal to me is just ridiculous, because its a bunch of really skinny guys in black leather in spikes
    b) music intenisty... one achieves intensity by having varying degrees of sounds/melody in their songs... black metal is just constand blast beats and tremolo picking on the guitar
    c) the screaming... I like growls or really well done screams, and this takes me into d) the fact that worse is better than good, so the screams are worse, but BM fans think its better

    I don't really have anything against black metal, but to me it never embodies any sort of mood or attitude, but its still better than metalcore and that shit

    I do like a little Burzum and I like Rotting Christ alot... I've heard RC described as black metal but to me they dont really sound too BM
     
  9. Black metal is decent.
    Darkthrone and Burzum are the stand out bands I've heard of black metal.
     
  10. Ok Dissection owns you got me there haha
     
  11. Yes, Dissection absolutely Kill.

    Im also a huge fan of Lord Belial. Enter The Moonlight Gate is a complete black metal masterpiece. I Urge EVERYONE to get a copy, its FUCKING INCREDIBLE.
     
  12. You guys should check out that playlist I made (I made it just for you ha). There's some really great stuff on there.
     
  13. I love black metal. My favorites are;

    Darkthrone, Dark Space, Dissection, Immortal, Sacramentum, Enslaved, Dimmu Borgir, Ulver, The Axis of Perdition, Hraefenzaj (local), Amon Amarth, and a lot more.
