Black Metal
"Throughout the history of Rock no other genre has pushed the boundaries of aural extremity and social rebellion quite like Black Metal."
(A-Z of Black Metal by Garry Sharpe-Young)
I couldn't waste above quote, as it describes the Black Metal in few words. I think personaly that this genre really has pushed boundaries, and what ever you like it or not, can't you came around it or get away from it.
The march of the Black Metal scene do really indicatates that we're now living in the "Satanic age", and with that doesn't I mean that these bands are hailing the evil, but more a another way to look arround the world to day about what is really happen out there.
What ever you belive in, are the fact that all relegions are on their way to the end, and it isn't Satan or the evil who would win this war, but the people.
I'll look foreward to some funny and nice hours into this forum.
Hail Satanas
Cheers!

By the way, did I forgot to notice that Burzum is catagorizised as NS Black Metal. I don't know if I further have to specify what NS stands for, but I can just conclude that their record company is http://resistance.com, who is a record company who is specialized in Oy and NS music generally. My oppinion is that National Socialism has nothing to do with Black or either Viking metal to do. It's pure political propeganda, and what ever other means is it also my oppinion that politic and religion has nothing to do with eachother, look into the middle east and you would find out how it can went wrong. So if there is a god, wouldn't I either think that he was involved into politics.
Cheers!

With my norwegan brothers in my thoughts, would I suggest that Creadle belongs to death metal, and I would like to say it without saying any negative about Cradle, cause they are god damn good musicians, and I really like their latest, but they have some problems with attitude, to belong into the world of Black Metal, sorry COF.

Well how about dark throne?greatest band. In the woods too early releases. and Immortal!
Hi Alex,
It's a deadly sin to forget Darkthrone, and as you can see has Darkthrone's companion withn' many years Satyricon allready mentioned. If I could change the poll would I had done it for long time ago, but what ever Darkthrone are still going strong, and many hails to one of the fastest drummer in the world Fenriz, who also had been involved into Satyricon too.
Immortal, I've been trying to find out what is going on with Immortal, and as fast I've found something news about them too would I add it immy.
Actually can I also mention many more bands that haven't been mentioned, YET, but it would be added soon.
Thanks for your add.

Dimmu Borgir...is best!@@
To be honest none of those bands are my favourite BM-band. I've sort of fallen¨in love, so to speak, with the Finnish folk-black-metal-band Moonsorrow. They play "hedning-metal", "viking metal".( Who knew that the Finns ever had vikings...) But anyway...
And when that's said Dimmu is not too bad either, not Arcturus either. though some of their work barely can be called black metal.
Moon spell is nice too, and yes I love Finnish metal bands. Quite ironic, because I'm Norwegian...

Yes! You're right!
You're really strange
, as norway is actually masters of Black Metal, and have the domain at that marked. I'm not known about much Finnish Black Metal, but I think that they have the same spirit as the other nordic countries, exept their language..
My own Finnish favorite band is still Amorphis, even that they had walked their way from epic Death Metal to Progressive metal, are they still great hardworker, and my favorite record is still "Tales From the Thousand Lakes".
Anyway a great hello to our norse brothers in Norway from both Sweden and Denmark.
Skål!

Hi there,
Sorry I can't agree with you 100%, but they have managed to make 3 brilliant masterpieces; "For All Tid", "Stormblåst" and "Death Cult Armageddon". The other pieces is just catagorized as "OK!", some of them a little bit too commercial.
I do have Dimmu Borgir's complete collection, but I don't listen to them too often, but it happens.
Cheers!
tricky to have a poll on the subject, I mean metal by definition is a little underground. Although I commend your list of choices I think it would be tricky to narrow it to just a few bands.

and I've also tried to take it away. But it looks like it looks and you're welcome to add on others and then might add it on comment. Thanks anyway.

Enslaved in my book, the only band that still rips and was part of the 2nd wave.

Hi there,
Not to forget that Enslaved also was a part of the "Moonfog-Clan", with the high prist of Norse Black Metal, Satyr, in front. Hail our Norwegan brothers.

i'm a big fan of immortal; all those bands in the vote list had something to say in this genre (more or less) ; has anyone listened to Negura Bunget?
well, you're missing Behemoth, but from that list, I think I would go with Dimmu.
BM is not m favorite genre, though I do listen to it every now and then (I prefer classic rock or power/progressive metal). And CoF isn't black metal as you said. CoF is gothic metal, which is way more similar to death metal...
Don't you like behemoth?

Hi there,
I don't think that I've anything against about Behemoth, but the reason that I haven't mentioned them is more like that I don't know them. But as you had been so kind to mentioned them at this topic, do I now have a reason to check them out.
And about genre, don't I have any special favorite genre. I mean that the most genre inside HM has 1-2 bands that makes something that is worthy, but there is too many bands that might have to choose something other to do than play metal or music generally.
So Keep on rocking and banging.....
Cheers!
what bands (in general) do you listen too?
| Mamsaac wrote: |
| what bands (in general) do you listen too? |
Hi there,
In the Black Metal genre, do I most listen to the Norwegan Black Metal Style. At the moment is the latest with Satyricon, Now, Diabolical, on my top list. It is really worth to buy. At the Black Death genre is it Deicide and Morbid Angel. And then do we have King Diamond and Mercyful Fate, who mostly can be catagorizised as regular heavy metal
In nomine satanas,
Cheers!
Hmm. First of all Black Metal isnt real black metal if it doesnt worship the norse gods. First of all i find it wrong and discusting but i find it even more discusting that some people actually like the way they act and write lyrics. If anyone like the music its fine and of cause someone do, but i think if you like the idea of black metal you are pushing it a little. bah.

Well, I guess that song would not not sell that well, if the video had been more true to the lyric

I haven't seen the video yet, but I guess that Satyricon isn't doing videos as well as their music. The only video that I've been seen with Satyricon is Mother North, and that is working well for me.

Hi there,
Anyway do I think that real metal bands should stay out making Music videos, as it's only making commercial for their albums, and as fast they are going the commercial way does everything making borring. Take a look on Metallica what happen with them after the One video, after that they did went directly into the trash can...
Stay clean, stay heavy

4) Emperor
5) Immortal
6) Venom (They has to be on this list)
7) Dimmu Borgir
Gosforth

yeah, i really like negura bunget, they really brought a new vibe into the romanian metal scene with the archaic language used in the lyrics, with their ideology, and, why not with their original website (www.negurabunget.com). I'm a big fan of negura, i like all their release and their video for "vazduh" is really cool!

They sounds as interesting, that I'm now downloading their "Vazduh" Video from their homesite. At the intro at their homesite, did I found some epic material in their music and alot of Norwegan type of Black Metal sound, and hail for that. Great to hear that Norwegan Black Metal also can be maded outside of Norway

| BATHORY mastermind Thomas "QUORTHON" Forsberg was found dead in his apartment in Stockholm, Sweden on Monday, June 7, informed sources have reported. The 39-year-old son of Black Mark Records owner Börje Forsberg, widely considered to be one of black metal's founding fathers, died of an apparent heart failure. More information as it becomes available.
~ Founding BATHORY Member says: 'QUORTHON Had Much More To Offer' ~ Legendary video director and founding BATHORY member Jonas Åkerlund has spoken to Sweden's Expressen newspaper about the passing of BATHORY mastermind Thomas "Quorthon" Forsberg from what is believed to be heart failure. Forsberg, who was known to have been battling heart problems for years, was found dead in his apartment in Stockholm, Sweden on Monday (June 7). He was 39 years old. "It's so sad. He had much more to offer," Åkerlund said. Jonas, who formed the band with Forsberg in the early '80s, went on to have a successful video-directing career, having worked with the likes of METALLICA, PRODIGY, MADONNA and U2. "[BATHORY came onto the scene] extremely early," Åkerlund said. "People like Marilyn Manson, Billy Corgan and the members of METALLICA have all come up to me and have told me that they listened to BATHORY." According to Åkerlund, it was Thomas Forsberg's creativity that made the band such an influence on so many younger metal acts. "[Quorthon] had a high cult status," Jonas said. "He wasn't interested in attention, he just wanted to play his music." SATYRICON frontman Satyr has issued the following statement regarding the passing of BATHORY legend Thomas "Quorthon" Forsberg: "Hearing about Quorthon's death was just sad. 39 years old you know... BATHORY made a huge impact on Frost and myself and it was the first Black Metal band I ever got into. This was in 86/87. Ever since I've been a big fan and his work has influenced me to do what I do today. In one of the first bands I played in, we did a cover of 'Sacrifice' live and SATYRICON recorded its first cover ever with 'Born For Burning' for the 'In Conspiracy With Satan' BATHORY tribute. Very few people have ever met or talked to Quorthon. He chose to be for himself and not be a part of the scene or anything like that. Obviously this was a big part in making him the cult figure he will always be. I was lucky enough to talk to him on the phone back in 95/96 a couple of times. The first time we talked for like three hours! And I found him to be a very friendly, interesting and well-spoken man. Our video director Jonas Åkerlund played with Quorthon on their first record and he has told me many good stories about those days. Thank you for what you did for music Quorthon. Everyone, light 13 candles and play your BATHORY records in memory of the king!" |

| Hmm. First of all Black Metal isnt real black metal if it doesnt worship the norse gods. First of all i find it wrong and discusting but i find it even more discusting that some people actually like the way they act and write lyrics. If anyone like the music its fine and of cause someone do, but i think if you like the idea of black metal you are pushing it a little. bah. |
Hi there,
You're so right. And I don't know either why Viking Metal is called Black Metal. Maybe it's cause many of the Viking Metal bands also are a little Antichrists, I don't know.
Cheers!
Obviously, if you're worshiping the Norse gods, you are anti-christ.

Hi there,
Officially has Asa nothing to do with anti-christs or other discrimination of other religions. Actually is it against their rules to do such, but as many other religions is there different areas and often has nothing to do with their basic. But I don't think that we should continue this discussion in this forum, as it might belong to other forum like religion or philosophy, even that it's a quit interesting topic to discuss.
Cheers!
Well, I don't like the lyrical themes in most black metal songs since I am christian and therefore i don't listen to bands with anti-christian lyrics. But theres some bands who call their music for unblack metal which is christian black metal (just black metal with christian lyrics). I listen a little to unblack metal, but I don't fancy the music that much. If I have to listen to extreme metal I would rather listen to some death metal and such.

Hi there,
I don't know if you had checked the lyrics of the latest Black Metal etc. As you might would find out that not many Black Metal bands spend their time on Antichrist lyrics, more than they are more spending time to on description of their own philosophy or religion.
About Asa, the officially mention of the Norse religion, can assure you that they aren't anti of any kind. Not Antichrists, antisemitism or antiislamics, but they are antiviolent.
This is not correct topic to discuss this issue, but only the music. Then can you discuss if you like their music or not, or just let it be.
Cheers!

For example Negura Bunget, with their musical and spiritual ideology.

Hi there,
I haven't heard about Negura before, but as far that I had understood their lyrics, these lyrics that was translated into English (I'm not good on Roman language), couldn't I find any so called Antichrist lyrics. But I'm not either sure if it was that you meant with given them as an example.
But I think that I might check them out some day.
Cheers!

I have Satyricon's discography (except the last album, which sucks), so I guess I need to give Abigor a listen

Hi my friend Helios,
I don't agree about Satyricon's newst, but I agree that it's strange. But Satyricon's label is to be strange, and the fact is still they are still have their own class.
Have you got "Fractal Possession" with abigor? If not, go buy it!
Have a nice "midwinther" (christmas by christans)
Cheers!
Took me time to understand Satyricon's latest release.
It is weird, but after some interviews and watching their DVD, I guess their direction is "speaking directly" - the short phrases, use of siplified language, short repetitive riffs etc
Anyway, there are some boring songs there, but overall I change my opinion on Now, Diabolical... it's not excellent, but rather a good album.
About Abigor, didn't like them much. Don't know why... didn't feel 'connected' to the music, you know

Hi there,
What Satyr and Satyricon represents is to be unique and the core of Norwegan Black Metal tothether with Darkthrone, Isengard and Dødheimsgard.
As the bands above wouldn't I say that Abigor has improved as much influrence at the Black Metal scene, more like that they try to ride the waves on what others has done before, but they do have great material and musical talents that has to be mentioned.
But back to the Satyricon branch, would I still conclude that every releases has been a surprice as you never know what is next, and that is the main reason that I never stop listning to Satyricon etc.
Cheers!

Hi there,
While we're awaiting new studio release from Darkthrone, has Darkthrone released Frostland Tapes, that is a compilation with rare demo recordings and rare live takes.
So if you're a Darkthrone enthusiast or just a Norwegian Black Metallian, is this a must have in your collection.
Buy it and Enjoy it!!!

Well, Darkthrone are indeed classic, but they are not to be considered a serious band these days, in my opinion at least. I still enjoy their old stuff, including the mighty Panzerfaust. I think I'll definitely try the Frostland Tapes. Rare demo recordings - sounds interesting!
