@blockhead. "In The Nightside Eclipse" and "Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk" by Emperor are both classic BM albums.

If you like Darkthrone and Mayhem you'll most likely be into those. Start with "In The Nightside Eclipse" first though. It's as badly produced as any Darkthrone record but with haunting melody.

Grand Declaration is so fucking awful.

It's weird that the new Altar of Plagues still hasn't leaked yet. Same for the new Primordial.

[QUOTE=blockhead;18487945]getting deathcrush and grand declaration of war now. i will check those other two out next[/QUOTE]

IMO there's no point getting anything other than Deathcrush and DMDS

and grab that walknut album morubar rec'd, it rules

Yeah Mayhem isn't that good all around.

[QUOTE=megalodon;18488213]Interesting. Never heard anyone say they prefer "AGDOW" to "Wolf's Lair".

BTW, do we have any Burzum fans on the thread that prefer Burzum to Mayhem?

I like both but I much prefer Mayhem.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I prefer Burzum to Mayhem.

me too

yeah, Burzum is better

Never been much of a fan of Maniacs vocals.

Deathcrush and DMDS are awesome though, AGDOW is alright every now and again. Haven't heard the rest of their studio work.

Thoughts on Live in Leipzig and Dawn of the Black Hearts?

new sangre y tierra is pretty good

Both are worth owning, but there's actually better Dead era bootlegs out there.

[QUOTE=Angmar;18488415]Yeah Mayhem isn't that good all around.[/QUOTE]

untrue

dawn of black hearts sucks compared to live in leipzig

i know man, i want that ish

Which would you recommend?

Can anyone recommend me Burzum albums to get into? I got their newest and didn't enjoy it...
I dont listen to a lot of black metal, but falling monuments (clandestine blaze) was excellent and i enjoy Lantlos, recs?

Try [I]Filosofem[/I] or [I]Hvis Lyset Tar Oss[/I]

yeah first 4 albums

pretty hilarious review

[QUOTE=Sexual_Behavior;18488749]untrue[/QUOTE]


A few good releases in the 80s/90s and a bunch of shitty ones ever since doesn't make for an overall good band.

yeah mayhem actually kinda sucks










a lot

[QUOTE=Brew;18488859]Which would you recommend?[/QUOTE]

The best bootleg I have is Live in Zeitz

Idk, to be honest....

Mayhem has a large amount of [I]decent[/I] stuff, and Burzum has a small amount of absolute fucking greatness. Take your pick of quantity vs quality, I suppose. I would have to say I prefer Burzum in the end.

Burzum has more good material than Mayhem by a long shot.

mayhem is still a good band i think

deathcrush
out from the dark
tribute to the black emperors

all pretty solid

[QUOTE=Angmar;18490349]Burzum also has more absolute shit material than Mayhem by a long shot.[/QUOTE]

Fixed.

Don't get me wrong, the best of Burzum blows the best of Mayhem out of the fucking water, but I think the worst of Burzum is waaay worse than the worst of Mayhem. Everything after Hvis Lyset Tar Oss was absolute shit.

I guess Varg knows how to go to extremes. *shrug*

I'd rather listen to Daudi Baldurs than listen to Grand Declaration of War

You smokin crack.

The ambient albums are lol but some of the ideas were just bad keys with the riffs that turned into Belus. Belus itself is amazing, it was Varg's songwriting in prison over years and years. Fallen is rushed and somewhat tired sounding.

I think a few Mayhem albums really rule, and I love Atilla but I would choose Burzum.

What's the opinion on Ash Pool around here? I just got Genital Tomb
