Knew it would happen, at least it didn't end up like Queensryche where there was two versions of the band.

Black metal's Saturday morning cartoon is off-the-air. It's sad. I actually kind of like these guys. haha
Saw them live the last time they came through the states. It was a fun show.

Literally one of the most consistent bands in black metal. They sometimes took a few years between releases but the music was always solid.

Blizzard Beasts is the only album that's a bit mediocre, but other than that they're all great.

The solo material probably won't sound much different from Immortal, looking forward to hearing it

Immortal were the last of the good 90's BM bands that still played straight up BM. Darkthrone play heavy metal (which is still awesome), Mayhem make experimental BM and Emperor are gone.

The end of an era.

Immortal was one of the first black metal bands I ever listened to, and I *just* said to a friend last week, "Man, I can't wait for another Immortal record."

Well, shit.

I should probably give these guys more of a shot, any suggestions on where to start? I'd prefer whatever's considered their best album since their most recent stuff never really did it for me

Talons, I think the generally considered top album for them is At The Heart of Winter, but I can vouch for Sons of Northern Darkness and Pure Holocaust being fuckin awesome as well. I prefer Sons myself.

Sons or At the Heart of Winter would be best to start with for sure. Then jam Pure Holocaust and Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism.

Pure Holocaust is by far their best
