Summoning's Habbanan Beneath the Stars is really an amazing song.

I love black metal but I hate how it takes so long to get into...

[quote=OvTheFireAndVoid;17777367]I love black metal but I hate how it takes so long to get into...[/quote]wut

it is a slow process

not.... really?

granted i didnt like the BIG BM artists when i first started listening to BM daily (jamie can verify this :P) but i never didnt like it nor did it take a long time to get into

For me, Agalloch made me want to find out more music in their style. Slowly I learned that there isn't really anything just like them, but during my long and slow search I found more and more music that I also liked: black metal.
From my experience, getting into black metal was a slow process. I can now appreciate quality music, even if it is some pretty lo fi stuff, that in the past I would've called impossible to listen to.

My introduction to Black metal was sort of typical: Burzum. It took me a few years to branch out to the stuff that takes getting used to.

i was introduced to BM with Nyktalgia.

kind of atypical i guess

My first black metal band was Unexpect and I listened to them for a while until I started liking rawer stuff like Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir. Then a couple years later I stated getting into the [I]really[/I] obscure dark **** like Krallice and WiTTR

cradle of filth and dimmu borgir were my introduction to black metal

then i started lookin up black metal on the internets and found out about the norwegian scene and started listening to like Emperor and Darkthrone

it was only downhill from there

ive never listened to CoF or DB before. didnt seem worth my time somehow

mayhem, emperor
then darkthrone, immortal, burzum

these 5 bands give a very good basis

I used to be completely uninterested by CoF and Dimmu because they attracted an insane amount of wannabe goths and 'alternative' (dressing like every other alternative fag amirite) fags.

I later found out that both bands have a few good songs.

CoF look like those people you just discribed so idk

Well yah, but still, they have a few good songs. And so does Dimmu. The bands are actually pretty good. It's just not the kind of stuff I'm really into.

i asked my mom to get me a blaze in the northern sky for christmas and then it was like bam

first black metal records i bought were a blaze in the northern sky, storm of the light's bane and dark medieval times.

100% quality trolling, keep up the good work man

Dimmu Borgir actually have a couple pretty sweet songs, not gunna lie.

[QUOTE=masscows;17777731]first black metal records i bought were a blaze in the northern sky, storm of the light's bane and [B]dark medieval times[/B].

i still listen to them.[/QUOTE]

yeah, that was the first one I bought as well. I still really enjoy it today.

First black metal albums I got were A Blaze in the Northern Sky and Hvis Lyset Tar Oss.

Ah, the weekly "what band got me into black metal" convo. Overdone but comforting at the same time.

retired speaking of posting repetitiveness haha

You're just mad that I coined the term "sup bros". Deal with it.

im not even referring to sup bros

I've got so many catch phrases I don't even remember them all.

im not referring to any of your other catch phrases either

You've stumped me, sir.
