07.22.16 | The black metal list barrage continues. |
FullOfSounds
07.22.16 | 9 is hard to get into |
StarlessCore
07.22.16 | 1 and 3 suck props for 4 and 5 tho |
Mystletainn
07.22.16 | "9 is hard to get into"
Not really |
Futures
07.22.16 | 3 definitely doesn't suck |
Hawks
07.22.16 | 1 rules what lmao |
StarlessCore
07.22.16 | havent spun 3 in a while tbh but remember being bored with it i should try again |
Sevengill
07.22.16 | Just missed: Deathspell Omega - "Fas Ite," Caladan Brood - "Echoes of Battle," Harrow - "Fallow Fields" |
Mystletainn
07.22.16 | You also missed bathory |
Sevengill
07.22.16 | BFD (Big Friendly Death) could go in there too, yeah. |
elliootsmeuth
07.22.16 | Real good stuff. Props for 3 and 10. 6 will always be my favorite though. You'd definitely enjoy Echoes of Battle. |
evilford
07.22.16 | why listen to bm when you could be listening to dm |
StarlessCore
07.22.16 | idk i used to like dm better, now i kinda think im a bigger fan of bm, cause i rlly like most of the styles and subgenres within black metal
you look at death metal and id say the worst deathcore and worst death metal is worse than even the gayest blackgaze |
Mystletainn
07.22.16 | Why listen to black metal or death metal when you could be listening to WAR metal |
elliootsmeuth
07.22.16 | True. There's some bad USBM tho |
Evreaia
07.22.16 | "9 is hard to get into"
9 is entree level bm |
evilford
07.22.16 | of course I was being tongue-in-cheek but I never could get real into bm. dm just hits me so good |
Flugmorph
07.22.16 | Good list. Check blut aus nord |
Sevengill
07.22.16 | I see it as death metal being more craft and black metal being more art. DM bands are often about technical prowess and "wow!" moments in the songwriting, whereas BM focuses on the place the music brings you and is a more personal experience. There's obviously common ground, but I lean toward the less aggressive, natural-sounding side of metal.
With that said, Revocation and Ulcerate rule. |
Evreaia
07.22.16 | Yeah I can agree on that |
Evreaia
07.22.16 | Personally I also think black metal is both the best genre (if its good), and the worst (if its bad) out there. |
Sevengill
07.22.16 | The diversity is huge, and the line between "good" and "bad" is pretty blurry sometimes. Like, how would you describe the difference between Doomthrone and Lurker of Chalice to someone who's never heard black metal before? One's depressing, slow, croaky, and underproduced and the other is legendarily bad? |
Evreaia
07.22.16 | That's what I mean, BM is both the best genre, an the worst. haha |
Hawks
07.22.16 | Bm is GOAT yeah. |
elliootsmeuth
07.22.16 | The subgenres of bm are more diverse than the subgenres of dm |
Egarran
07.22.16 | BM is more metaphysical in sound and lyrics and I happen to be a sucker for that. |
Avagantamos
07.22.16 | DM is all about them riffs, but windir crank out some pretty good ones too |
Sevengill
07.22.16 | I keep confusing Blut Aus Nord and Dir En Grey, having heard neither yet. |
Flugmorph
07.22.16 | lol confusing those two is really out there. |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | It's the "extreme metal band with three foreign-sounding one-syllable words" thing. I'll get it together, promise. |
iloveyouall
07.23.16 | still lame |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | dude I said I'll work on it, you don't have to salt the wound. |
iloveyouall
07.23.16 | listen to hakaristi |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | will do, already put them on my to-do after seeing you mention them on the 2016 list |
iloveyouall
07.23.16 | nice! :) |
iloveyouall
07.23.16 | i'm going to hopefully post a bm/black noise list at some stage today. the raw side needs more love. |
MistaCrave
07.23.16 | List rules, somehow I've never heard 3. Gonna get on that ASAP |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | It's a behemoth of an album -- probably longer than necessary -- but it's pretty amazing. |
hal1ax
07.23.16 | some stuff i like here.
list needz some beherit , mystifier , darkthrone , bathory [2} |
Mystletainn
07.23.16 | Hal knows
List needs less trees and snow and more satan |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | mystifier, there's a new name. sweet. |
DrMaximus
07.23.16 | I can't tell if this list is for real or not :/ |
Sevengill
07.23.16 | This list is for real according to my taste. There are plenty of most-influential or most-enduring BM album lists, but this one is my picks for the ten that I consider the best I've heard and keep coming back to. |
Evreaia
07.23.16 | couple good ones here, especially 4 |
iloveyouall
07.23.16 | my phone gets 7G |
