how was it

pretty fu[I]c[/I]kin awesome

why'd you go? Olympics?

Olympic Orchestra, who ironically never played at the Olympics... :confused:

thats strange

anyway, i suppose it was awesome for you even though you probably spent more time in damn plane then in China.

lol, well I spent about 24 hours collectively on a plane, but like 2 weeks in China so it's ok.

24 hours? Wow, i don't even think ive stayed in my house for a straight 24 hours, let alone a plane...

keyword: collectively

[i]I know[/i]

13 hours there 11 on the way back

I keep hearing Summoning mentioned as good stuff...I want to listen...

Could one of you fine gentlemen point me to the best album to start on that would give me a good feel of what they're all about?

Let Mortal Heroes Sing Your Fame

I had Minas Morgul and I thought it was pretty bland idk

Minas Morgul is pretty weak and primitive sounding for Summoning, idk how people can see it as their best.

Their latest 2 are best with Let Mortal Heroes Sing Your Fame being all time best.

Cool, thanks.

Has anyone heard the album Lunar Poetry by Nokturnal Mortum? Good? Horsesh[size=2]i[/size]t?

Good. Goat Horns is better IMO.

Lunar Poetry rules, some people don't like the synths but I think it works great.

Nobody in here talks about Strid so I figured I'd whore my review here so maybe some of you bitches will check it out.

I wish they had done Goat Horns with the same production as Lunar Poetry, that would be ****ing perfect

Goat Horns is still better though

Yeah I love the production in Lunar Poetry, his vocals didn't sound as good til later releases though.

Goat Horns is their best!

Orrery is so ****ing elite! One of the best BM bands I've heard lately.

shut up you useless cunt

lol?

guess i didnt miss much

not really

Orrery is actually pretty sweet, best instrumental black metal I've heard.

Angmar you listen to opeth

nocturnal boredom

The only instrumental black metal I remember hearing is While Sad Spirits Around Me Stroll, which I havent listened to in forever because it got lost on a hard drive crash.

Haven't heard them, might check em out. Orrery are cool, they use really good production and drum work.

I wouldn't bother checking them (I think it's just one guy, actually) out. It's not bad, not good. It just kinda is.

[QUOTE=FatalEnergy;16579300]I got some yesterday. It's pretty similar. Maybe a little more leaning to old Sabbat.[/QUOTE]

it is good stuff, i found a guy who still has copies of their 12" and buying it on friday!

so I think i'm pretty much bored and done with black metal :( It just doesn't interest me enough to fight through thousands of terrible bands to find two or three decent ones.

exciting huh?

if you're still at the stage where you have to 'fight through thousands of terrible bands to find two or three decent ones' then you still have a long way to go...

What do you mean exactly?
