"Immortal was great... ...last year" << that is impossible, it's not 1992

Then I was clearly drunk.

A good live show doesn't need to take place in a band's musical prime.

In elitist jackoff land it does.

RetiredAt21 03-08-2008 10:45 AM

I never liked Immortal.

combustion07 03-08-2008 11:08 AM

Immortal is my favorite black metal band as of right now. Anybody like Forest?

Stormrider 03-08-2008 11:24 AM

Like a Blaze Above the Ashes is good and the best Forest I've heard.

RetiredAt21 03-08-2008 01:00 PM

I don't think I've ever heard Forest, but I'm not sure.

Stormrider 03-08-2008 01:04 PM

I feel more like a whole now that I know that.

You guys hate on Justin too much

RiceMonster 03-08-2008 02:33 PM

Forest is pretty sweet. Blaze Birth Hall shouldn't have bothered doing multiple projects though, there's no difference between any of them.

FatalEnergy 03-08-2008 03:10 PM

Immortal is still great. Can't wait for the new album.

The only Forest I've heard of is the folk band from the 70s

[QUOTE=Iron Bars;16082904]Immortal was great live at Wacken last year, or I was to drunk to care.[/QUOTE]

Immortal are probably the most amusing live band I've seen. Good time stadium rock stylings to black metal. Pyro and crowd participation - Euronymous will be spinning in his grave

Angmar 03-08-2008 04:12 PM

The Forest album I got was pretty mediocre minus the decent vocals. I strongly preferred the Walknut album that the guy from Forest was involved in.

DERSIEGDERKRIEGDERKAMPF 03-08-2008 04:23 PM

Although I have not listened to Forest in a long time, Like a Blaze Above the Ashes left a big impression on me back then mainly due to the way it was produced and the riffing.

Eliminator 03-08-2008 04:24 PM

deciduous blasphemy!!

Stormrider 03-08-2008 04:47 PM

Do you remember which album you had Angmar?

Yeah, I like the production on that abum a lot.

Not a band I listen to often, though.

DERSIEGDERKRIEGDERKAMPF 03-08-2008 04:49 PM

I still don't know if it is some sort of chanting I suppose in the background on that album or just a combination of delay/reverb effects.

Foredooming the Hope for Eternity, the riffs didn't strike me as anything special and I remember the drums sounded horrible.

Silenius 03-08-2008 08:48 PM

Yeah, a lot of BBH does sound similar since it's comprised of the same few guys for every band. I remember Branikald, Forest and Ravendark being the best from that group, never got into their clean vocals though.

Stormrider 03-08-2008 10:43 PM

I didn't like Ravendark :-/

[QUOTE=Angmar;16085170]Foredooming the Hope for Eternity, the riffs didn't strike me as anything special and I remember the drums sounded horrible.[/QUOTE]

Like a Blaze Above the Ashes really the only Forest I've heard that I still listen to. Foredooming the Hope for Eternity has a real nice cover art, though.

Angmar 03-08-2008 11:11 PM

Yeah it does haha, that's probably the only reason I chose it over the others. Since opinions/reviews were kinda limited.

It's not just that. Everything sounds the same to me. They're all exactly the same. The same group of people can make music that sounds different.

[i]Foredooming the Hope for Eternity[/i] is a funny title because 'fördom' means 'prejudice' in Swedish. And Forest is an NS band lol

But are they something I would like? I like raw, up to a point. It depends, idk it's weird

[QUOTE=1338 h4x0r;16086191][i]Foredooming the Hope for Eternity[/i] is a funny title because 'fördoma' means 'to be prejudiced against' in Swedish. And Forest is an NS band lol

It's 'fördöma' and I would translate it as condemn. 'Fördom', on the other hand, is prejudice. 'Fördomar' in the plural.

1338 h4x0r 03-09-2008 05:21 AM

My bad, thanks Björn

The humor still holds (a little)

Tyr 03-09-2008 05:27 AM

It definitely does.

Well the most prominent of the BBH (Forest & Branikald) are basically the same - two solo projects by the same (now dead) guy. If you like BBH, that raw kind of atmospheric NSBM, have a look into Heidentum (Ger) as well. Absolute killer.
