Black Metal 'Official Thread'

The Shogun of USMB approves of this thread.


but, how the fuck did this go from Black Metal to Tool? Love em both but give me a fucking break.


Since we are offering tangents though.. Let's take a moment to bask in the awsomeness that is Amon Amarth

I too was thinking the same thing. :lol:

Amon Amarth are great Viking Death Metal! Killer song/video. Thanks for sharing.

I'll be forwarding this thread to one of my death metal buddies who will be more than happy to volley videos with you. Beware though... half of them will probably be Opeth videos.

hehehehe.

Awesome! I look forward to it. I'm enjoying this message board quite a bit already.
 
This is a Great song, and far from your typical black metal. Even if you don't think you like black metal, I encourage you to check this one:

Some interesting things about it, some pretty good guitar work in some of it.

I found most of it way too repetative and caught in a limited framework.

I will never understand why people think their music cant stretch boundries.

Rock has been here and done this.

I cant understand the lyrics and that always hampers my appreiciation of a tune.

I can listen to this type vocals and even appreciate it to some extent but I can never decern the lyrics.

I also have problems with the overt silly tough guy spikes and black leather bullshit.

It always (along with most other costumes for stage) just strike me as teenage angst props.

Here you go. No costumes unless you consider a bowling shirt a costume :)

Talk about a band with a range. Listen to these two together. Same band, same singer even.

Lars Mikael Åkerfeldt has an awsome voice.
 
That Belphegor wasn't bad at all.

Their sound takes me way back to teenage years.

I am. Not many black metal peeps are. I've never been one to care what others like though as I am sure you feel the same.

Here's an old tune

Old school! I love it! :clap2:

I'm 40 so... been listening to this shit long time now. Since I was 13 actually.

Good taste indeed. I started off listening to: Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Overkill, Sabbath, etc. When I was about nine or ten. I then was introduced to: The Misfits, Samhain, Danzig, Black Flag, Minor Threat, Dead Kennedys, The Cramps, etc. It opened up my entire world & I haven't looked back since.
 
Melodic black Metal, anyone?
