two hunters was pretty average but i enjoyed diadem

Oh yeah two hunters is like a different band it reminds me more of ambient post rock than anything else

WIITR is average. Very much so.

nahhh they use melodies that actually sound good and stuff its cool

I listened to Diadem once and never went back to it afterwards.

krallice probably have some of the best melodies in modern bm.

really i'm surprised someone actually liked that besides me i have a **** taste in music tbh

i didnt like them on first listen, but they have a really sweet riffing style.

Black metal is all about melodies. :rolleyes:

[quote]krallice probably have some of the best melodies in modern bm.[/quote]
they have some, i remember one track i think it was track 4 (the one with the solo), had some awesome guitar parts, but the rest of it sounds really awkward

some of it is, some of it isnt, all in all its p. damn quality.

OH NO IT DOESN'T FOLLOW TRADITIONAL BLACK METAL STANDARDS:rolleyes:



I don't like black metal for the very reason that most bands are more concerned about being mindless sheep following the herd than...oh i dunno....trying to make good music!

I personally like melodies

My black metal band just got signed! I'm pretty excited about it.

dude are you on century media

Maybe it's the opportunity for an artist to explore other ways of making music and not making the same structured drivel that most other genres use. I'm not against melodies, but there are enough other styles of music that have very good melodies. Black Metal should be a way for artists to explore creating atmospheres. Of course all music is [I]melodic[/I] in some way even if atonal. But that doesn't mean that the catchy hook of a melody should be the focus of this genre.

Also your pathetic attempt to divert this to a "most BM is just a Burzum or Darkthrone clone" discussion is irrelevant. I'm not arguing about the state of black metal but rather what I look for in a black metal band. It's more about the sound, the feel, the overall blend of noise that makes the genre special. You can't isolate a single element like a melody as the factor that makes the music good, it has to be a combination of everything that works together well.

I think I'll download some Krallice, since everyones going on about them atm

Prepare to be disappointed. It's not bad but not nearly as amazing as I thought it would be from what people were saying.

Yeah, I'm not expecting anything amazing. Mainly downloading it because I want to hear it.

no my opinion is the official one

[quote=Silenius]Prepare to be disappointed[/quote]
oh good, I thought I was the only one who didn't like it.

I wasn't too impressed, either. Didn't even sound very black metal to me.
