so much of that is so out, and slade Glam Metal..... no Glam Rock, I'm quite offended by the remotest idea of them being described as metal

TheScumfiend · Jan 09, 2007, 01:57 AM

Atm Mainly into

Post-metal (isis, pelican, The Ocean), grindcore (Pig Destroyer, Agrophobic Nosebleed, napalm Death) and drone (Sunn o))), Boris), other than that Mastadon are awesome, and so are She says destroy.

I'm more into the weirder more experimental types than straight up-metal these days. And I'm more into hardcore than straight up metal. altho I will listen to most types of metal.

I enjoy Khanate more than Boris or Sun0))). Pig Destroyer is in my top ten of all time, although between Terrifyer and PitY I'm not sure which is their best album.

Boris > Khanate > Sunn0)))

I love Sunn oh so much, but I really don't get what all the worshiping them is for...I can't sit down and listen to any of it...It's more....background noise. I just can't deal with it.

oldgentlovecraft · Jan 11, 2007, 04:15 PM

I completely agree with you, it's like listening to a horror film score with distortion and repitition. It needs a bit more meat. Wasn't there just a collaboration released between Boris and Sun0)))? Oh yeah, who likes Akercocke here? They are my favorite black metal band of all time. Now if I could just catch them in the states some time...I also like Electric Wizard and worhsip Burning Witch. Funeral doom is a must in my book and I keep spinning the Catacombs album nearly every day.

Necrocetaceanbeastiality · Jan 11, 2007, 04:26 PM

I fucking love Electric Wizard.

Oh man, I tripped out the other day, I was listening to Electric Wizard on my iPod wandrin' home from a friend's house, when I happened upon a construction site. I looked up and saw a sign on the fence that said "Wizard Electric". I was totally freaking ot.

The Boris/Sunn0))) collab is called Altar and it's really damn fucking ass cool. It's got Boris' metal and plain rock sides melded with the drone of Sunn0))).

It's a must-have for any Boris or Sunn fan.

Celtic Frost kick ass!!!

oldgentlovecraft · Jan 11, 2007, 11:26 PM

I love the last Celtic Frost and their first two albums were pretty good too. Is that quote under your avatar Burroughs? Oh well. I heard a little from Altar and I actually liked it. Listening to some God Among Insects right now, fucking excellent death metal.

It's actually from the new Isis album, and it's been credited to Hassan-i Sabbah. Monotheist is a great album indeed. I've been listening to Candlemass and My Dying Bride lately

It's a cool qoute either way. I got into My Dying Bride by reading in the lyric booklet for a Cradle of Filth album (I don't care I think they fucking own) and that's how I became hooked. Candlemass not so much. I need to find the 43.788% Complete (or whatever in the hell the title is) album because nobody has it. It was the slightly experimental album that everyone disliked.

Quote from: 4th Eye on Jan 07, 2007, 07:28 AMJosh, if I remember your name correctly YFM, you should too check out Swallow The Sun. And Callisto. I just have to promote bands from my homeland cuz Finland is, along with Sweden (and Norway in black metal), the home of metal.

What type of music do they play?

And Josh is right

Swallow The Sun is doom/death metal....I would compare them to Opeth. And Callisto is kinda like Neurosis, Isis, Cult Of Luna etc.

I also watched Headbanger's Journey and enjoyed it. Quite interesting and the guys from Mayhem seemed like nice people...

Azwethinkweiz · Jan 15, 2007, 04:57 PM

what about the interview with "gaahl" from gorgoroth?

damn, one twisted fuck right there.

i'm looking for that album too. i have some friends who are into that shit, if i get it, i'll upload it for you. i'm looking for Krux II(by Krux), i loved their first one!

oldgentlovecraft · Jan 16, 2007, 06:46 PM

Some of those black metal fuckers, and I mean the traditional black metal that started it all, were seriously scary. They burned churches and murdered people. How much more evil can you get? Gorgoroth's newer album is awesome, especially with Frost on the drums again. And thanks ahead of time 333tone, if you find it.

Azwethinkweiz · Jan 16, 2007, 10:09 PM

how can you say that gorgoroth's album is awesome ?

they're evil people, man.

they shouldn't be supported in any way.

333tone · Jan 16, 2007, 10:19 PM

there are many people involved with black metal that do whatever they do just to make people pay attention. i know many people that would listen to black metal just to show they're different from others, and now that they know that they don't need to pretend, they've calmed down. on the other hand, there are many who support that they have this certain belief and they express it through music(like the recent suicide of an Emperor member, or fucked-up Mayhem members). it's really a hard thing to see where music stops and where propaganda(with the "help" of music) begins

Azwethinkweiz · Jan 16, 2007, 10:23 PM

gorgoroth supports the burning of churches.

i can't see how anyone can support a band like that.

like i said, it's fucking evil.
