Jarlaxle 56 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 This is probably my favourite Black Metal song of all time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kwtbkbCNow I like these bands mainly Nachtmystium - Psychedelic Black Metal/USBM Peste Noire (Translated as "Black Death" or "Black Plague") - Medieval BM/National Socialist Black Metal Sombre Chemin - NSBM/French Black Metal Primordial - Progressive/Folk Black Metal Deathspell Omega - French Black/Orthodox Black Metal/Avant Garde Black Metal Blut Aus Nord - Atmospheric Black Metal/French Black Metal Caïna - Post-Black Metal/Ambient Black Metal I never was into the classic Black Metal bands or any of the ones from the 80s. Stuff like Celtic Frost, Bathory, Venom. Nor the second wave of Norwegian ones like Burzum, Mayhem, Darkthrone, etc... Any other fans here?

DoubleNecker Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Burzum The only black metal artist I listen to really. His album Hvis lyset tar oss is ace. I think Filosofem is good too, and the lullaby is so so great, but it could never make me fall asleep unless I focused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanna be drummer Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Black Metal? Hate it And I'm not just some ignorant asshole saying that either, i've given it multiple chances. Just not my thing Edited December 4, 2008 by wanna be drummer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarlaxle 56 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Ha, I can't say I was expecting many people to enjoy it. It really is one of the most difficult to get into genres. If you don't like it then you probably never will, it's just one of those things you either like or don't like. Personally, it took me to find bands that differentiate from the typical norms to start liking it.

Shankly Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I've only recently started getting into black metal/ death metal (and I'm 52!). I must admit I find it hard to distinguish between all of the different metal genres, so probably a lot of the stuff I've been listening to isn't strictly black metal - I suppose I lean more towards the folk metal stuff really. I found the vocals hard to get used to at first, although I don't mind it so much now (although I still prefer 'clean' vocals). I've been listening to... Candlemass Cruachan Bal Sagorth Drudkh Summoning Battlelore Turisas Korpiklaani Satyricon Skyclad Skiltron Graveland amongst others. it's good to find lots of new music when you're my age!

Swede Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I listen to some Death and Black Metal, but mainly vintage (80's). I prefer the old production to the new with triggered drums and such things. Venom was cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard of most of those bands, but never listened to them (except Candlemass). But if you like Folk Metal with Black influences, I have a superb band for you to check out.

Swede Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I loved Candelmass when I was in my teens. Classic Swedish metal band! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
