The bass plays it

"<Psalmanazar> It's on Blizzard beasts" I thought you meant the album

The the guitars take over.

I forgot what song

The song Blizzard Beasts 2:12

Yeah

It's great. Way harder to do that than any tekdeaf

Except for like the necrophagist shred leads.

Why is Battles not very good, @diversity_is_racism ?

Honestly I'd say they're all about on par

First four anyway

I wouldn't say that at all

2nd and 3rd are a world apart from 4th

Immortal definitely with burzum had the strongest output.

Yeah

hvis/filosofem #1

Enslaved had a good run

pure/battles #2

But b list comparatively

Enslaved also has formulas. They're like Sacramentum level but I like Enslaved more.

Enslaved is very very good. But next to these two, nothing matches up.

The best two metal bands.

Immortal is Grotesque / At the Gates level

Idk they just had some of the best runs.

Immortal shits on both bands and make them look like losers.

Sabbath and Maiden did too.

Just some boners

Blunders thrown in.

Immortal alone is better than all heavy metal combined

Just Pure or Battles

@Nester LACK OF ACTUAL INTERNAL TENSION

SEEMS KIND OF LUKEWARM TO ME

better than all heavy metal and thrash combined.

LOVE THE FIRST, SECOND AND FOURTH

DO NOT MIND "AT THE HEART OF WINTER"

BUT IT IS LIKE CEMETARY

HIGHLY SENTIMENTAL

My buddy proved they rip off themselves in that to me.

It's all Miaden + earlier immortal riffs.

He sold the CD due to that

I don't understand that, @diversity_is_racism . Pure is a bit detached and whimsical. But Battles is extremely tense, as if it's barely holding together.

THE TOP TEN IN BLACK METAL ARE ALL FAIRLY COMPARABLE

And is being attacked from all sides perpetually.

CLEARLY BURZUM WINS THE GENRE

BUT OTHERS ALSO MADE GREAT WORKS, ALTHOUGH RARELY BEYOND THREE ALBUMS

@Nester BARELY HOLDING TOGETHER = DRIVEN BY RHYTHM AND TECHNIQUE MORE THAN CONTENT

FITTING WITH ITS RELATIVELY RUSHED NATURE

But is something like Onward to Golgotha black metal?

Like the first 10 seconds of At the Stormy Gates of Mist

It's certainly closer than all of USBM.

Same with the first three Morbid Angel.

Like climbing up a mountain pathway and almost being overtaken by the wind

Snow up to knees, every step is taking everything out of you.

Change the vox and guitar tone and Show no Mercy is basically Enslaved

With the clear worship of influences with single note fills.

You're almost unconscious, aren't so as to your great will.

And proggish riff progressions.

EARLY ENSLAVED IS SOMEWHAT AMAZING

PROBLEM WAS YOUTH

VIKINGLGR VELDI IS GREATNESS

Internal struggle, internal tension.

EVEN IF SIMPLE SOMETIMES

The problem was rhuebnever got over imitating their influences.

They started at it.

Then went Manowar

@Nester I HEAR MOSTLY THE FEAR AND CONFUSION

And failed after the album with him on the throbe

ELD?

It's not an erratic feeling at all. It sounds like numbness induced from intensity.

I forgot the name. The only decent we wuz Vikings album.

Yeah

Eld

No bueno for intie?

A zombie like state

In the mgihtside eclipse is greatly

Let's do one

But terror still.

It's just the only thing

The terror of the situation, you yourself don't feel any.

That and the emperor/enslaved split

The demo is cool too but not as good

It'll drive up your traffic

White everywhere, slashing wind cutting you up, you're bloody everywhere, and extremely heavy

If I push it to others

But keep moving up the mountain path

The question is will pissing off the daily fagger

Or normcores lead to more?

You can ask the nocleansinging questions

Will it only be a temporary boost?

No clean singing is paid by the pr companies

I am 100 sure

There will be a urine smell everywhere

Let's get it over with

As we always get thanked by them for copying press releases for shit we like.

Like earache reiaaues

0:18-0:28 extremely brutal

INTENSE

In At the Stromy Gates of Mist
