Any other Stoner/Doom metal fans?

[Russell]

They are drone doom. I love them, and I am guitrguy btw.

[Dies Irae]

gnaw their tongues

one of da best doom bands eva

[Dies Irae]

the drums on desire in uneasiness sound so much better

[Russell]

I agree with elim, I also say he needs to get The Botched & the Bungled

[Dies Irae]

im actually downloading that right now

i just wish the gtrz/bass were louder but whatever im listening with earbuds

[moltenlava]

Drone Doom? Is that anything like Funeral Doom, because I nearly committed suicide listening to something called Ahab - Call of the Wretched Sea. Holy snap, son! That schitt droned on and on and on. Directionless, plodding misery. I ain't needin' none a dat. That's for dang sure.

[ATM]

:lol:

[moltenlava]

So this Narnia is Drone Doom?

[Txus]

lol

[moltenlava]

OK. So I heard some of the Nadja, and if by Drone you mean HISSING and FUZZ for seven to fifteen minutes at a clip, then yeah, no, I'm not so interested. lol. I want DOOM! dammit. I loved the most recent Candlemass and Aeturnus as Traditional Doom recordings. And, I wasn't about to argue at all with what Trouble did with mainstreaming their old sound. The songs are all memorable on 'Simple Mind Condition'. Just great, melodic songwriting. I'll have to look into some 'Witchcult Today'. Someone named a few obscure names a few pages back. I wanna know if there are any bands which are being unfairly overlooked. What's a Doom band that should be as popular as the three groups I mentioned? And, who said that Kyuss sucks a couple pages back? I had to dig out some tracks from Blues for the Red Sun and Welcom to Sky today. These albums are great.

[Dies Irae]

try harder

Nadja is pretty doomy. I feel apocalyptic rumblings in my stomach when I listen to it, and my stomach is pretty sensitive

[moltenlava]

I fail because I don't like fuzz, hiss and reverb? A hour long of fuzz, hiss and reverb?

lawl @ you calling Ahab fuzz, hiss and reverb.

[moltenlava]

Are you calling me a fat hippy? lol. A fat hippy that has a plastic knife wrapped around his noggin.


Actually, I was calling Narnia fuzz, hiss and reverb. I don't have a name yet for Ahab. But the nomenclature will certainly revolve around the desire of the listener to put blade to wrist. I'll listen to it one more time, but I have a feeling that I won't survive the ordeal to post my comments.

Gimme some Doom!

gtfo faggot

[Kage]

Wow...you guys are being complete jackasses to the only decent new member who has joined here in the past year and a half...

and people wonder why I don't come here anymore. Idiots.

no one wonders that you oversensitive baby

1. I don't see what makes him decent

2. No one seems to miss you :\

[pate]

He's a troll.

I miss Kage.

[Russell]

I miss Kage too!

I also don't see how being dumb makes you a troll

[moltenlava]

Wow. I guess I'll leave you drones to your slit-wrist misery. Have fun.

[Russell]

I rescind my not a troll statement.

[RunAmokRampant]

so yeh, new Cult of Luna absolutely kills.

[Jondur]

I like the new guy. Anyway went to Doom Metal Inquisition V on Saturday - My neck still hurts. Warning, Forsaken and Pagan Altar were my highlights.

[Angmar]

Ahh seeing Warning and Pagan Altar would be amazing.

[Jondur]

Well Warning had some sound problems but Warning with a dodgy guitar lead are still better than 99% of other bands. Pagan Altar had no such problems and played a blinder.

If you don't know Forsaken then you should check them out - you're only 18 years too late to the party!

[pate]

I think I know Forsaken.

Jondur, you like Iron Hearse? I just got into them.

[Jondur]

Yeah total Obsessed worship. Played a gig with them a few years back. they were pretty good live as well - great guitar tone seeing as their gear looked like knackered crap. You can download most of their stuff from the Bland Hand website.

[pate]

Yeah, that's the stuff I have.

[Nostalgia]

Forsaken is pretty good, actually. I don't remember having an album, but some songs I checked out were really great.

[jrowa001]

ive been digging Grand Magus finally. ive had their album Wolf's Return for a while but i jsut got around to listening to it. holy **** Kingslayer is a badass song

[pate]

Great album, but the new one, Iron Will, is better.

I ordered Iron Will after one listen on a download.

[jrowa001]

yeah im definitely going to buy Wolf's Return and Iron Will as soon as i can.

[Nostalgia]

Pat,
013 has decided not to let Warning play due to protests of Aaron of MDB. seems that you have sent him deaththreats in the past and attacked him as well...sorry man!

Manuel

In light of WARNING being dropped from the Dutch "Ashes to Ashes" festival, we have this to say. My Dying Bride are a bunch of cowardly underhand spoilt brats, it only proves that they are truely scared that their time in the spotlight is now over, and will do anything to prolong the agony they inflict on the hundreds of listeners worldwide with their pathetic and feeble excuses for "music".





The truth is, that it was Pat's cousin, Rich Walker who attacked Aaron "Pubehead" Stainthorpe, and threatened oily guitarist Hamish Doublecross. They are clearly shaken by WARNING's popularity, and cannot bear the thought of having the piss blown out of them live by a so called "lesser" band.





We raise our hats to the buffoons in MDB, and thank them, and the so called promoters of the "Asses to asses" festival for showing their true colours yet again. Well done, you are simply not worth pissing on if you were on fire. ****ing cocksuckers the lot of you.....

Hahahahah. I like Miskatonic's response. Truly gay as ****, though.

[Jondur]

Yeah that's gay as you like. Anyone who's ever met Warning will know that its bollocks. Yeah Pat Walker is the size of a small block of flats but he's not the sort to go round twatting people for no reason. MDB and Solstice have been feuding since Towards the Sinister so I reckon they're just using this to get at Rich.

In unrelated news - check out Nomad Son. Hear a couple of tracks here: http://www.metal-on-metal.com/home.html

[Nostalgia]

I didn't think it was Pat Walker who said anything either... he doesn't seem to have a tad of aggression to him. It didn't surprise me when it said Rich was the one - considering some stuff I read, he doesn't seem like he has a problem with conflict.

That is still lame that MDB would throw a fit over something so petty though.

[Jondur]

It didn't surprise me when it said Rich was the one - considering some stuff I read, he doesn't seem like he has a problem with conflict.

Ha - Trust me Rich doesn't have a problem with conflict - he fcuking loves it!


But yes - in conclusion MDB are gay and playing at being rockstars

[Txus]

MDB are crap tbqh.

seig heil Warning!

[foreverendeared]

listening to Reverend Bizarre at the moment :]

[Shattered_Future]

I like a little MDB now and again, but An Ode To Woe (their new live album/DVD) is absolutely ****in' terrible. Jesus Christ...

[pate]

orly

Sinamorata is alright.

[repcak]

A half year ago I got the Secret Satan CD by Peter and I still discover new bands, cause I haven't really listened to everything...somehow I missed "Longing For Dawn".
What a fantastic band...wow :D

[rasputin]

Longing for Dawn are great, both their albums are solid.

[jrowa001]

im listening to Iron Will and it rules even harder than Wolf's Return. damn im loving Grand Magus right now.

i found this blog http://stonerobixxx.blogspot.com/ and it has some really good stuff on it, similar to that mercenario blog. so far ive gotten Spiritual Beggars, Orange Goblin, Witchcraft, Unearthly Trance, and Wooly Mammoth

[Russell]

mercenario is back up too.

[jrowa001]

yeah i know, that makes me happy

[Shattered_Future]

I didn't like Iron Will that much. Like The Oar Strikes The Water is massive, epic, balls to the wall, and probably one of the best tunes they've written. The rest left me wanting more.

[jrowa001]

i think Iron Will and Wolf's Return both as a whole was a crushing and relentless album from start to finish

[Russell]

I really liked Iron Will too.

[pate]

Iron Will is amazing. It came in the mail yesterday. Too bad the booklet sucks.

[jrowa001]

im waiting for mine to come in the mail. i already got Wolf's Return first in the mail somehow

[pate]

Same thing with me. I ordered Iron Will and 2 other albums at the same time. They shipped separately, with Iron Will supposedly being backordered, but then both orders shipped the same day. I got Iron Will yesterday, and the other two aren't here yet. wtf

[jrowa001]

haha yeah that sucks. im really digging this style of music. im hoping to get more bands like this. i like it because its heavy and rather fun also

[pate]

Indeed.

Is your RYM right in terms of CDs owned? I'd love to have that many.

[jrowa001]

well if i count all the cds that were stolen from me than yes. i have a friend who's dad owns a record shop in Riverside and i get a whole bunch of good deals there. lots of metal and such. a lot of my prog rock albums were given to me from a neighbor who was giving away all his music (he went bankrupt). so ive had some help getting a lot of cds. also friends, family, and a girlfriend help me out every birthday and christmas. i order a lot to, i set aside $50 from my tutoring every month to buy a few albums that i have been wanting.

i should update it though because i have gotten rid of a few cds (the ones with low ratings)

[pate]

Sweet. You've got a hell of a collection.

[jrowa001]

thanks! about 250 of those were stolen from me though. so im trying to get those back

[VomitStainedCretin]

Hi, I recently acquired at a sale a Pentagram album, Be Forewarned, and I didn't really know anything about the band but it was £2.70 (£3 minus student discount) and what I've listened to seems a reasonably decent slab of trad doom. Opinions on Pentagram?

[SHOOTME]

I like Stoner Rock...

like Queens of The Stone Age?

Pentagram is great.

[Dies Irae]

that album is good

[ATM]

Best Pentagram album is the s/t.

I just found out my co-worker played guitar in Black Manta:

http://www.myspace.com/blackmantarules

Pretty sweet.

[moltenlava]

Pentagram is great.

I gotta get me some o' them. Which is the best album to start with? They were a 70's band, no? I don't know anything about those guys, other than they had something to do with the formation of Doom. The band Witchcraft, who I love now, by the way, began life as a Penta cover band. I read that the core of Witchcraft's sound is still steeped in the covers they once performed nightly....Based on the recommendations in this thread, I started checking out samples for Grand Magus' new one. I like them, but I'm really suprised at the guitar tone that they go with. It's not what you typically associate with Doom. How long have they been at it?

[Dies Irae]

does every post you make have to be a paragraph of bullshit

[Cocaine]

is he outing himself again?

[Txus]

I don't know anything about those guys
You don't know anything about most things, tbqh.

easily the most pointless post of all time. even this post that im making now, which accomplishes nothing except pointing out the pointlessness of the quoted one, is better.

[Bhima]

seriously how do you not hear of pentagram and consider yourself a doom fan?

[ShinsenNaClitoris]

Yeah, that's ****ing gay.

The new Moss is great btw

[moltenlava]

I don't understand why a couple of you guys have to be such mighty large pengas. How do you guys ask each other questions and state stuff and schitt. How do you accomplish such tasks when everything is either gay or bullpoop? I'm askin' a simple fluckin question here. I'm diggin what I'm hearing with Grand Magus, but the guitar tone is not something you'd hear comin' out of a Doom band. It's actually kinda mainstream sounding. Did they always sound like this?

[Bhima]

um what?

[Nepenthe]

simple: we dont ask questions, and when we do we dont expect answers

[moltenlava]

lol. Alright, I get it. Don't ask no questions, don't 'spect no replies.

[ShinsenNaClitoris]

and don't write an essay for every single post.

[Bhima]

he can ask questions when they make some sense.

[moltenlava]

he can ask questions when they make some sense.

But, who's to decide what makes sense? Should I just prep each post, PM them to you and wait authorization?

[ShinsenNaClitoris]

yeah...that's what we all do!

[moltenlava]

Bhima's the gatekeeper?

[moltenlava]

See, I need to know what goes on. 'Cause I can't afford to fail again. Pa says if I fail any more threads here at Sputnik I can just forget about tuition next semester. And, I can kiss that new Lamborghini Gallardo goodbye.

Check out what I might get:

If they would have asked a few more key questions a very bad thing might not have happened.

[jrowa001]

got myself some YOB. listening to their album The Unreal Never Lived

[Russell]

Get the Illusion of Motion. It's their best by far.

[jrowa001]

thanks man, ill get that one soon. so far The Unreal Never Lived is really good

[Shattered_Future]

I thought YOB dragged on for too long.

[Russell]

I thought you have broken ears.

[Jondur]

did I mention I've heard the new Witchfinder General album? If I haven't well - wow is all I can say. the new vocalist is fantastic and the songs sound soooo heavy. Could well be album of the year.

[Russell]

OMG OMG OMG jizzing

[ATM2]

What's it called?

[Russell]

Resurrected

[ATM2]

Sweet. I can't wait to hear it.

[jrowa001]

i picked up some Witchfinder General. Death Penalty makes me feel elite (even though im far from it)

[Angmar]

omg the MUST hear new Witchfinder! Cannot wait omg omg :jizz:

[Russell]

omg The Must Hear New Witchfinder! Cannot Wait omg Omg :jizz:

Beat You To That

[Angmar]

haha weird, I didn't even read the other posts

[pate]

Hail Jondur

[Russell]

Jondur should hook his MX brosephs up.

[emilyy]

jondur definitely won't

[Jondur]

No because when I heard it, it was played over the PA at Doom Metal Inquisition 5 in Bradford, UK. Besides I think most of you know my views on pirating.

Anyway it'll be out soon enough and trust me you won't be disappointed.

In news from bands I am or have been involved with: New Unsilence album will be recorded in August. I've heard a fair bit of it and I think it's a return to form as the last demo was a bit experimental for my likeing. The River are still looking for a new singer so their album is postponed indefinitely as I think they're looking to rerecord the vocals with the new singer whoever he/she may be. And there will be a new Solstice album recorded in the autumn.

[Nostalgia]

the River are still looking for a new singer

thank god.

[Jondur]

What do you mean?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

he is planning to audition.

[ATM2]

Give Austin a couple wine coolers and he brings the DOOM

[pate]

Austin hates her voice.

[guitrguy]

Give Austin a couple wine coolers and he brings the DOOM

lol

[Nostalgia]

dude no, give me some arbor mist and it'll be doomgasm

[Shattered_Future]

I didn't think that chick was terrible. Her voice fit well with the music.

[Nepenthe]

arbor mist haha. i remember stealing my parents arbor mist when i was like 11 and getting drunk for the first time in my life.

[Nostalgia]

yeah that **** is awesome. takes like a full bottle to get drunk, but its worth it

[Nepenthe]

no not really. even 11 year alcohol virgin anthony knew that was some pussy ****. im pretty sure that was the last time i ever drank it. i was known to chug entire boxes of franzia at a time though.

but that was a much different period of my life

[emilyy]

even then people knew your were destined to be a winner

[Nostalgia]

arbor mist just tastes like pure juice though, which is why i like it.

of course its pussy ****, but its better than drinking shitty piss beer

[Nepenthe]

id rather drink beer than any other type of alcohol tbh

its impossible to be a winner when youve already won eliminatoor

[megalodon]

^^^^ I'm with Nepenthe. Beer has always been my choice of alcoholic beverage. Other than commenting on the components that get us wasted, does anyone here like Evoken or Khanate? Both funeral Doom bands. I'm sure someone in this thread has mentioned one of them but I'm not digging through 400+ pages to find out.

[Nepenthe]

evoken is my favorite funeral doom band. antithesis of light is quite possibly one of the greatest cds in the entire doom genre. the cover art is legendary too. it used to be my avatar on here for awhile actually.

[Txus]

Evoken are quite good.

My favorite FD band is SOD though. ****ing epic ****.

[Nepenthe]

stormtroopers of death arent funeral doom

[Txus]

LOL

Shapes of Despair :)

You should go back to doing drugs again, you are getting kinda slow now mang.

[Nepenthe]

no, my level of sarcasm has just increased to a level undetectable by other humans

[megalodon]

"Antithesis Of Light" is such a good record. Who would have thought to put blast beats into a funeral Doom song? Brutal. Even though "Antithesis" was excellent, I'll always be more partial to "Quietus".

[Nepenthe]

quietus is excellent, but antithesis is just perfect. every piece of the antithesis puzzle is placed exactly where its supposed to go.

[megalodon]

"Quietus" was my first Evoken album so I probably have a soft spot for it. "Antithesis" is indeed perfect. I can't argue with that.

[emilyy]

mine too, wanna hump

[Nepenthe]

im always down to hump a hot girl like yourself girl elim

[emilyy]

proceed

[Nepenthe]

like i need permission or something

[rasputin]

Where can I find a free download of anything from Coffins? Google is not cooperating.

[Txus]

They are not that good tbqh

[rasputin]

I listened to a song on their myspace and thought it was decent. Cheers for the warning though, but I'd still like to hear an album of theirs.

[Txus]

Try in Bunalti, I think they have a couple of albums.

[rasputin]

haha sweet, it's in Turkish as well :)

[Ventriloquist]

Uh looking for doom bands like Uaral/Agalloch. A little bit of folk and clean tones in it. I have faith ITT. Help me out!

[rasputin]

The Morningside - The Wind, The Trees And The Shadows Of The Past
they're not too fantastic and are a bit predictable, but they fit the bill

[Ventriloquist]

They're OK. Not much like Uaral. But yea you said that they weren't fantastic so I got what I expected.

[Nepenthe]

maybe some empyrium and estatic fear

[Angmar]

Yeah old Empyrium would definitely be up your alley, Uaral are decent but their harsh vocals are pretty bad and they crying this is a bit much.

[megalodon]

I've been listening to Thorr's Hammer as of late and the Tyranny album "Tides Of Awakening". I don't know how I feel about it.

[Txus]

I don't like Thorr's Hammer that much.

I was listening to Burning Witch a while a go, they were so ****ing good.

[Stormrider]

Empyrium are so great.

[Nepenthe]

yeah seriously wtf is up with uarals song that is just somebody crying?

and i cant believe i forgot to recommend forest of shadows to the person looking for folk influenced doom. practically the best folky doom there is. i recommend where dreams turn to dust as the first album to look into. excellent, excellent stuff.

[Silenius]

Try in Bunalti, I think they have a couple of albums.

Bunalti - "we have the discography of every band" (and our rar passes are very tricky).

[Ventriloquist]

Yeah old Empyrium would definitely be up your alley, Uaral are decent but their harsh vocals are pretty bad and they crying this is a bit much.

I already have the Empyrium albums. I really like Uaral's deep growls. Yea the crying thing is kinda weird. Gonna try Estatic Fear.

[emilyy]

agalloch are the best band in the doom scene, tbh

[Silenius]

Estatic Fear is good, you will probably like them.

[Nepenthe]

let me restate - forest of shadows is the ultimate of this little subgenre. where dreams turn to dust is epic win.

[Angmar]

Never listened to that tbh!

[Nepenthe]

do i really need to say this then?

go listen to it

[Angmar]

Yeah I figured as much!

[guitrguy]

... just sounds ambient

ok I hear the funeral doom now.

[rasputin]

the Tyranny album "Tides Of Awakening".
bad album

[ATM2]

http://www.myspace.com/blacktusk

[guitrguy]

blacktusk is awesome.

[rasputin]

what's the best Zoroaster album?

[Nostalgia]

there isn't one.

[rasputin]

ohok. One of you guys recommended them to me ages ago (I think it was guitrguy), so I thought I'd follow up on it.
I want some stuff that's similar to Church of Misery - Master of Brutality, what's good?

[guitrguy]

Dog Magic is the only Zoroaster I have. I like it a lot.

[rasputin]

ok sweet I'll get that one now

[ATM2]

Get the s/t Zoroaster album.

[RetiredAt21]

Get the s/t Zoroaster album.

Agreed.

Also, Black Tusk are ****ing awesome.

[ATM2]

Have any of you heard Clouds - Legendary Demo?

[Meatplow]

Memento Mori is rather good.

[Refl]

Anybody checked out this band, All The Empires Of the World? They've just got the one real EP at the moment which has a nice review here on sputnik and there's a link for a free download there aswell.


http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?albumid=28591


I may slightly be in the band but it's down this threads street fo' sho'.

[Nepenthe]

dog magic is zoroasters best

i was listening to clouds' we are above you just the other day. awesome album.

[jrowa001]

i just got Minotauri's s/t album and it's awesome

[guitrguy]

Minotauri is pretty awesome. Plus their album covers are nice.

[jrowa001]

yeah the album cover is sweet, i like how its a bit blurry

[pate]

Memento Mori is rather good.

doesn't do anything for me

[ATM2]

Black Manta are killer, my coworker played guitar for them:

http://www.myspace.com/blackmantarules

Also been diggin on Clouds today:

http://www.myspace.com/cloudsrock

[Ventriloquist]

agalloch are the best band in the doom scene, tbh

Agreed.

[Angmar]

Sarcasm detector set to off.

[repcak]

Agalloch are decent, but I won't call them "best" - I don't like to call anything "best".

np: Agalloch/ The Hawthorne Passage

[ATM2]

Foreigner alert.

[Angmar]

Agalloch aren't doom!

[repcak]

Agalloch aren't doom!

good point.

[Txus]

I woke up to the sound of Cirith Ungol

\m/

[Meatplow]

doesn't do anything for me

I've only heard Rhymes of Lunacy, apart from this, Candlemass, Krux II and Warning's Watching From a Distance are the extent of my doom metal knowledge.

Any recommendations?

[Angmar]

Listen to some Witchfinder General and Pagan Altar. :)

[pate]

And Solitude Aeturnus, Doomshine, and Pale Divine.

[Angmar]

Pale Divine stole an album title from Current 93! :mad:

[pate]

But Pale Divine is better!

[Angmar]

Nonsense! I will check them out though. :p

[malaise]

Quick! Tell me some obscure bands to check out!

[Txus]

Candlemass

[malaise]

That is not funny.

Nah, I just need some cool bands to check out because I'm going through one of my Stoner/Doom stages where all I listen to for a couple of weeks is Stoner/Doom bands.

[pate]

Iron Hearse
Tortured Spirit
Argus

[Txus]

Definitely the Argus, some really sweet stuff!

[malaise]

I'll check those out. Thanks.

[Meatplow]

Death Penalty is seriously elite, get it son!

[moltenlava]

Making my way through Candlemass' Nightfall right now. First time I ever heard it. These guys don't disappoint....ever. Do they? Is there any Candlemass album that mostly sucks?

[rasputin]

King of the Grey Islands

[DBlitz]

I only have Epicus Doomicus Metallicus and Night Fall, both are superb

[moltenlava]

King of the Grey Islands

Oh, c'mon now, playa. You're not serious, is ya? I'm spinnin' that one above all others. Absolutely love the most recent release. Actually, and undeniably, that recording has more melody than everything preceding it. And, the riffs are pretty much on par with their best stuff. By best I'd be comparing it only to Nightfall, Tales of Creation and Ancient Dreams. Don't know any others. I think I'll be going for the self-titled one next...But, love me that new Candlemass album. I'm gunna listen to them all again, but I really think I might be favoring the Grey Islands. Love me that vocalist from Solitude A. And that probably factors in.

[Meatplow]

Death Penalty is seriously elite, get it son!

yeah I listened to it today

at first it seemed exceptionally gay but I dunno somehow the riffs gelled with me in the end. pretty tight

[ATM2]

Any fans of Thou?

[guitrguy]

yeah I listened to it today

at first it seemed exceptionally gay but I dunno somehow the riffs gelled with me in the end. pretty tight

witchfinder general is as straight as you can get

[jrowa001]

the vocals kind of sounded odd to me at first but then i realized how awesome they were. i only have Death Penalty but im getting their other stuff soon

[Meatplow]

witchfinder general is as straight as you can get

I decided to appreciate it as more in the vein of Black Sabbath.

[guitrguy]

stay away from live in '83

[jrowa001]

i shall then, thanks for the heads up

[pate]

Is there any Candlemass album that mostly sucks?

The self-titled.

Oh, c'mon now, playa. You're not serious, is ya? I'm spinnin' that one above all others. Absolutely love the most recent release. Actually, and undeniably, that recording has more melody than everything preceding it. And, the riffs are pretty much on par with their best stuff. By best I'd be comparing it only to Nightfall, Tales of Creation and Ancient Dreams. Don't know any others. I think I'll be going for the self-titled one next...But, love me that new Candlemass album. I'm gunna listen to them all again, but I really think I might be favoring the Grey Islands. Love me that vocalist from Solitude A. And that probably factors in.
Mate, seriously, I don't know whether you actually speak the way you type, but it's incredibly irritating. And no, King of the Grey Islands is pretty bad.

[pate]

KOTGI is elite.

[rasputin]

It's pretty crappy tbh

[pate]

You're pretty crappy tbh

[Ventriloquist]

Agalloch aren't doom!

Ashes against the grain is pretty doomy. But yea the others are more folk-ish.

[pate]

doomy =/= doom

seriously you are just like one giant, bad, pop culture joke

and ashes against the grain is actually the least 'doomy' of agallochs material. the mantle has alot more aspects of doom in it. ashes against the grain is more 'folky' post metal than anything.

[Nepenthe]

Only the vocals and some tremolo picking but nah.

[Nepenthe]

tremolo picking is a guitar technique, it is not an attribute of black metal

[pate]

It is a common attribute of black metal.

[Motown]

Here we go back to little ineffectual, brainless twits talking schitt.

[Motown]

this thread smells like schitt!!

[Nepenthe]

you cant even make a post that is only one sentence long without including some kind of completely lame word or phrase in it

[moltenlava]

Of course you're gunna think words are lame. You probably never got out of the seventh grade. :lol:

[Stormrider]

fail

Whadaya mad that I used the word 'twit'. I only used it because it rhymes with schitt...something you have coming out of your ears and eyes. You're full of the brown stinky stuff, son.

[Nepenthe]

oh i got out i dropped right out

are you on pcp or something dude? you are a ****ing looney tune.

[moltenlava]

fail

Only a failure without a comeback will use the word fail. It's like admitting that you ain't got no retaliatory fuel. Now go back to diddlin' your sister...

[Ventriloquist]

I'm not a big BM fan therefore I dunno many bands, but probably all of the bands I heard from my friends do trem. picking(Dark Throne, Leviathan etc.). What I meant to say was, that's the only connection I could make with BM and Agalloch. Just to be clear.

yes let me dissect your intellectually superior post with elaborate counterstatements.

actually, you didnt even use the word twit.

on the contrary, nothing seems to be coming out of my ears or eyes. except brilliance.

i believe you are filled with some of the 'brown stinky stuff' too, 'son'. or does your body not go through the digestion process?

and im the one who 'diddles' jammies sister. not him.

[moltenlava]

and im the one who 'diddles' jammies sister. not him.

Everything was weak in your comeback, except for this.

[guitrguy]
