Hipster BM is a pretty retarded thing to say j/s

i had mayhem and emperor cds but it was only when i got burzum that i became very interested in black metal

the song det som en gang var was really the one that did it. i think i listened to that track on repeat for an entire night the first time i heard it.

and now all i listen to is hipster bm go figure

Hipster BM is the best :)

After Burzum it was Mayhem, Darkthrone and Vlad Tepes.

I love "hipster" BM too. A new sense of melody, and a different type of atmosphere being added in doesn't necessisarily mean a bad thing. It's also hilariously ironic, because the same people who complain about bands like Austere and Krallice for being different, complain about most other modern BM for being too derivative.

And yeah, I got into Darkthrone and Emperor pretty quickly, as well as a lot of LLN and French BM in general.

Sargeist is another early BM listening band for me that I still really dig. I don't care what anyone says, they have awesome riffs and some of the best vocals in the genre.

That's what I was getting at. Hipsters generally listen to **** like Tera Melos and Giraffes Giraffes, or really entry level shoegaze.

I kinda gradually got into bm. I think my first interests towards that direction were actually sparked by Agalloch. And maybe a bit of Cadacross and Immortal.

[QUOTE=Mr. Ron;17514763]Same story, really.

one of my favorite Burzum songs:

S/t is my favorite.

My first BM band I listened to was Beherit, actually.

unless my perceptions on what is "hipster" is wrong, (early) mayhem can never be considered hipster, no matter how many people like it. what makes something hipster comes from the hipster attitude and style of the band not from how many fans it has

hence iron maiden is not hipster but trivium is
even though iron maiden fanbase extends further

I don't know about Trivium being hipster.

Ya, Trivium is more just mall metal.

Methinks Stevie has no clue what a hipster is.

Quick explanation:
Hipsters are the scene kids who started wearing men's skinny jeans instead of girls jeans, and v-necks, and replaced their faux-hardcore and faux-emo listening with pop-indie and bad modern rap.

They also heavily rip-off the bike punk and basement hardcore scene, and for some unknown reason, think its cool to pretend that abomination of a "beer" PBR is God's gift to man.

ok. too much of an american term for me

when i say hipster bm im just referring to bm that is more popular in non bm circles than it is in bm circles. which in turn is usually the best bm.

said bm way too many times there

to me that says CoF, dimmu borgir, marduk...not mayhem

to be hipster black metal the band has to actually be black metal

bad examples i know

mayhem really isnt 'hipster'. i was just noting that they have an incredibly large following of fans that arent bm fans.

listening to return of the vampire lord. forgot how ****ing awesome this song was.

mayhem hipster?

looks like a little puss.

How did you get my picture?

I like his crustache.

Pungent Stench album behind

heil

[QUOTE=RetiredAt21;17515068]I like his crustache.[/QUOTE]

haha i was trying to find a word for that

Just noticed [I]Mental Funeral[/I] is behind him, heil.

i can't see the picture :(

I wonder where my Bal-Sagoth thread is... too awesome band.

definitely not the thread to talk about them in tho

So to get it straight. Someone is hipster when he plays bm while not caring for the whole bm ideology or imagery? If it's like that then I definitely need more of it. Or is it when they actually acguire a non-underground following?

[QUOTE=RetiredAt21;17515094]Just noticed [I]Mental Funeral[/I] is behind him, heil.[/QUOTE]

and godflesh pure
cant recognise any others, but other helvette photos have bathory and venom albums heil

Anyone here like Onheil? A friend showed me their music. It's pretty good stuff.

I really have new appreciation for Hat's vocals on Pentagram. That mother****er could shriek.

of course he is amazing

hahahaha yeah Hat is a pretty kvlt name
