Darkthrone

[Meatplow]

Soulside Journey is a good album, however i am listening to Graveyard Slut, Whiskey Funeral and Shut Up off of The Cult Is Alive, what a difference 15 years makes. :confused:

Talk Darkthrone.

[RetiredAt21]

A Blaze In The Northern Sky, Under A Funeral Moon, and Transylvanian Hunger are my favorite. Anything other than those...no thanks.

[Eliminator]

black metal thread.

[RetiredAt21]

black metal thread.

If he took this to the black metal thread, everyone would be like "WE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT DARKTHRONE LIKE 9879w4875093874539475346 pages ago, SHUT THE **** UP NOOB."

[Eliminator]

yeah i guess thats true.

[Meatplow]

black metal thread.

Darkthrone is not black metal i am told.

[Necropsy]

Ive only started listening to them in the past week. A Blaze In The Northern Sky hasen't left my cd player since I got it

[Eliminator]

Darkthrone is not black metal i am told.

you listened to their first album and their most recent..

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Darkthrone is not black metal i am told.
Darkthrone are the quintessential Black Metal band.

[Meatplow]

you listened to their first album and their most recent..

Their most recent sounds more like some kind of bastardized hardcore/punk group. I have no idea what is in between.

Darkthrone are the quintessential Black Metal band.

I've mentioned them to several people in BM circles before and they seem to think of them not a tr00 band, apart from their first few releases. I haven't listened to anything but the first and a sample of the last.

[RetiredAt21]

A Blaze In The Northern Sky, Under A Funeral Moon, and Transylvanian Hunger are my favorite. Anything other than those...no thanks.

Those are the best.

[Meatplow]

Those are the best.

As in general quality of music or a shift in genre?

I've heard people say good things about Panzerfaust and Goatlord as well.

[Eliminator]

in general quality jesus christ just download them and listen

[Meatplow]

why would jesus download darkthrone? :confused:

[RetiredAt21]

Because they rule.

[Lunch]

Jesus listens to tr00 black metulz thats why

[Meatplow]

He also gets naked and dresses in corpse paint whilst staring at himself in the mirror after the door is shut and the blinds are closed.

[RetiredAt21]

OK, you guys can stop now.

[Meatplow]

Seriously are they true BM or not, or is just a case of me running against purinatical music fans who like to pidgeonhole genres?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Just get A Blaze In The Northern Sky.

[RetiredAt21]

Seriously are they true BM or not, or is just a case of me running against purinatical music fans who like to pidgeonhole genres?

The stuff I mentioned is true BM.

[Meatplow]

The stuff I mentioned is true BM.

Okay cool.

Just get A Blaze In The Northern Sky.

I have all their albums, that's the one i will listen to next.

[Shred Danson]

I heard one of their newer songs, "Canadian Metal" off the "New Wave of Black Heavy Metal" (wtf) EP last night and thought it was incredibly stupid. I'm not even going to bother explaining why.

But yeah, pretty much all the albums Retired listed are great. The rest is..meh, ok.

[RetiredAt21]

I don't like their new "black 'n roll" **** at all.

[Shred Danson]

It seems kinda gay to me.

But at the same time, it's cool because they still pretty much don't give a **** what anyone thinks about them.

But..."Canadian Metal"..wtf

[RetiredAt21]

Yeah that seems pretty lame. And I don't like black 'n roll to begin with. I think it's stupid.

[Cocaine]

Canadian Metal is badass because of the fact it's pure name dropping. Everything that song mentions kicks ***.

I dont mind the new Darkthrone, in fact I'll probably really enjoy the new album for what it is. They've conquered "true" black metal, they did it over 13 years ago. Now they're just paying tribute to their favourite bands and influences. They did the crust **** on Cult is Alive and now they're doing the Thrash/Heavy **** on the new ****. ****

[RetiredAt21]

I wouldn't call The Cult Is Alive crust. Not by a long shot.

[Cocaine]

I wouldn't call The Cult Is Alive crust. Not by a long shot.

You can't deny the influence at all.

[Meatplow]

I listened to A Blaze In The Northern Sky today, i dunno how i feel about it.

It's very different to Soulside Journey in production, but seems to have a lot more varied and complex arrangements. I dig the razor thin guitar tones for some reason.

[Deathcrush]

Keep "digging it". Dig and dig until you exhume a rotten filthy corpse.

ABITNS was the first ever BM cd given to me, and it was the one that eventually clicked with me and forced me to delve further into the genre that I now hold so dearly.

[Nostalgia]

Never heard this band. Any good?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

wiggercore kiddie ****

[Eliminator]

:HEADSPIN:

[AA-12]

Darkthrone is amazing. The new stuff is so good it's not even funny. I can't wait for the new album.

[NemesisDivina]

i'm glad to see i'm not the only one who liked the EP...

unless he's being sarcastic

[Cocaine]

josh means cult is alive i reckon

[Angmar]

I didn't dig it tbh :(

[AA-12]

No i'm serious. The new stuff is great.

[NemesisDivina]

cool.

NWOBHM? I really like the song Wisdom of the Dead tbqh

[rattlehead42147]

soulside journey=greatness

[RetiredAt21]

You can't deny the influence at all.

Well, there's a difference between straight up crust and crust influenced.

[superpeer]

Soulside Journey is boringz

[RetiredAt21]

I never heard it.

[superpeer]

I reviewed it ages ago and I explain it brilliantly, if I remember correctly.

and where the **** is Dargon to call everyone wiglets?

[RetiredAt21]

Hahahahaha, I dunno.

[Nostalgia]

I think he's back at uni.

[Blashyrkh]

Soulside is a Death Metal album. A Blaze in the Northern Sky is their first Black Metal album...If you didn't know that already Meat.

[RetiredAt21]

A Blaze In The Northern Sky rules.

[Cocaine]

Soulside Journey is boring, but Cromlech is a solid song.

[rattlehead42147]

sunrise over locus mortis is ****ing great too just like neptune towers.

[RetiredAt21]

Can someone upload Soulside Journey?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Check your rep Justin.

[RetiredAt21]

Sweet, thanks dude.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

No worries.

[Lunch]

I think he's back at uni.

lol that kid goes to college?

[FatalEnergy]

Soulside Journey is pretty boring.

Under a Funeral Moon is my favorite.

[Meatplow]

Soulside is a Death Metal album. A Blaze in the Northern Sky is their first Black Metal album...If you didn't know that already Meat.

Yeah got it. Just commenting on the difference between, since they are the only two albums i've properly listened to.

[superpeer]

lol that kid goes to college?

hitler college!

[RetiredAt21]

Hahahaha.

[rattlehead42147]

Soulside is a Death Metal album. A Blaze in the Northern Sky is their first Black Metal album...If you didn't know that already Meat.

Euronymous called Soulside Journey a black metal album because it featured some black-metal esque lyrics/ideals. or something like that. its in an interview with him, but he refused to call it death metal.

[RetiredAt21]

He would do that.

[RiceMonster]

I think he's back at uni.

No, the school year hasn't started yet in Canada.

Euronymous called Soulside Journey a black metal album because it featured some black-metal esque lyrics/ideals. or something like that. its in an interview with him, but he refused to call it death metal.

Who gives a **** what Euronymous says? It's still death metal. Doesn't matter if the lyrics are "black-metal esque" because that's certainly not the only death metal to have lyrics in that vein.

[Nostalgia]

No, the school year hasn't started yet in Canada.

MY BAD.

[Cocaine]

No, the school year hasn't started yet in Canada.
Still, people are starting to locate to residence if in fact they're in it. I'm pretty sure Dargon's just bored with the site again, or cant be bothered, much like I can't be bothered hypothesizing any further.

[Dark_Hero]

A Blaze in the Northern Sky is black metal at its finest. Under a Funeral Moon and Transilvanian Hunger are also good black metal albums, but not for the faint of heart, haha.

[Blashyrkh]

Euronymous called Soulside Journey a black metal album because it featured some black-metal esque lyrics/ideals. or something like that. its in an interview with him, but he refused to call it death metal.


I think I remember that interview from my Lucifer Rising book.

[rattlehead42147]

^yeah thats it i think.
Who gives a **** what Euronymous says? It's still death metal. Doesn't matter if the lyrics are "black-metal esque" because that's certainly not the only death metal to have lyrics in that vein.
i'll be the first to tell you that i really dont care what euronymous thinks but i just recall that interview, and i found it interesting that he was so stubborn in denying the death metal roots.
euronymous is gay.

[RetiredAt21]

I agree on Euronymous being gay.

[Aakon_Keetreh]

agreed.

[RetiredAt21]

Jeez, everyone has that avatar.

[Angmar]

Yeah but Aak's actually has the Bathory logo above it :p

[RetiredAt21]

Truth.

[rattlehead42147]

I agree on Euronymous being gay.

thank god. usually a bunch of mayhem fanboys run around denying the fact that Euronymous was such an idiot. he said he would never sell out, then said "well we wouldnt mind making a lot of money, so long as our beliefs dont change."
although i bet if he were alive today he would jump at the chance to join Dimmu with Hellhammer.

[RetiredAt21]

Probably.

[FatalEnergy]

Euronymous yes, Dead and Necrobutcher no. What happened to Maniac? not that it really matters since he sucks, but I'm just curious.

[RetiredAt21]

Maniac does suck.

[NemesisDivina]

:lol: the Freezing Moon at Wacken video with him is terrible. he sounds like a heavy smoker with emphysema

[rattlehead42147]

Euronymous yes, Dead and Necrobutcher no. What happened to Maniac? not that it really matters since he sucks, but I'm just curious.

from what i heard he went in a mental institution at one point which was why they got dead. i have no idea where he is nor do i care. the true mayhem is dead.

[masscows]

Is Panzerfaust any good?

[Dark_Hero]

Is Panzerfaust any good?
Definitely, a classic.

[FatalEnergy]

I like Panzerfaust. They lost me after that one though honestly.

[Dark_Hero]

I'm downloading Panzerfaust right now actually because my real copy sat in my hot car for too long and the sun melted the case to the CD, haha.

[Jondur]

sun melted the case to the CD, haha.

Where do you live? Mars?

Although I did laugh when a friend spent £200 on vinyl at Wacken and it all melted.

OT: Total Death is probably the biggest pile of arse ever.

[rattlehead42147]

i have no idea how anyone can call panzerfaust a classic. repetitive, boring and unoriginal as it is. ABITNS and TH are much much better.

[Aakon_Keetreh]

I like some darkthrone. Most sucks ***.

[superpeer]

Although I did laugh when a friend spent £200 on vinyl at Wacken and it all melted.

Aren't you a nice friend :p

[masscows]

i have no idea how anyone can call panzerfaust a classic. repetitive, boring and unoriginal as it is. ABITNS and TH are much much better.

I've heard mixed things about it, like the dude calling it a classic and you saying it's not,

[RiceMonster]

I can't get into Panzerfaust because the vocals are so god awful. I like all the albums before that one though. Yeah, I like Soulside Journey. It's not the greatest but its enjoyable.

[Meatplow]

Soulside Journey is my favourite so far.
