Anglicans should adopt Latin, tbh.

I'm not annoyed about if they're using English translations from Douay Rheims and what have You, but still.

I've never been able to get behind the monotone of the liturgical psalms. It sounds cool in Latin and all, but it really doesn't capture the spirit of the texts. In the effort to make them more universal it strips the unique joys and sorrows from the context.

Go to vespers as well as mass.

Then you can have less monotonal psalms too.

Basically the only decent Christian black metal band. And by band, I mean one dude.

The guy's an Aussie, specifically Jayson Sherlock, formerly of the band Mortification. Phenomenal drummer.

Good shots of his footwork in this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoKb9TVyQrc

Check out hesychast

I also happen to be the guitar man

Good stuff. Production quality is a good deal sharper than most of what I'm into, but in a way that still comes across as genuine.

tfw not grim and frostbitten enough

I cut my teeth on Leviathan and Xasthur. Stuff like Dark Throne and Burzum came later for me, and by then I'd gotten into stuff like Abigor and Marduk. I didn't even know about unblack until last year or so. When I'm out of my funk enough to practice guitar, I might just give it a crack myself.

Xasthur is a big influence

We were into them, drudkh, blut aus nord etc

Right now I'm big on Satyricon and Anaal Nathrakh, but I put on Xasthur, Wolves in the Throne Room, and similar stuff when I'm writing. I'd say my all-time favorite (black metal) band is probably Deathspell Omega, though.

I like deathspell

I'm more partial to their older stuff though

I need to re-diversify my music. All this black is starting to push out my '90s metalcore.

I need more Zao and Shai Hulud in my life.

Teenage me

Muh demon hunter

etc

I still remember buying Impending Doom's first proper album in high school. Every subsequent album they put out was garbage, but "Nailed. Dead. Risen." is still among my favorite albums.

Probably the only decent deathcore album ever made.

i was in a deathcore band actually
