Darkthrone-Blacksmith Of The North (Keep That Ancient Fire)

[Samhainmisfit123]

I like the music and lyrics, i just wish they kept the old vocals

[BoycottStabb]

black metal punx! superb, kudos to darkthrone, most acknowledge and celebrate the similarities and struggle of all exteme music past and present, dumb idiots just don't get it.

[bassistdave109]

killer man fuckin killer

[luisalonsoreyes]

[UZIsuicide9111]

3 chord music is way fuckin better its raw and immedite that vituso shit has no oompf its a buncha masturbatery bullshit thats dosnt go anywhere

[VinterLuft]

cool, ive been listening to panzefaust alot . . i love the style of that album, . . .

[PrplStckyPnch008]

This is relatively decent, in the case of mimicking an older sound. As far as the rest of this album is concerned... it is better than F.O.A.D. although not by a long-shot. It is just rather disappointing knowing the talent they have and what they can do versus what they are actually doing. It is as if the intelligent pupil if purposely failing for the only intent of pissing off the professor. Darkthrone is good, but last two albums don't keep up to par with their name.

@PrplStckyPnch008

I agree with you. They can mimick the old sound well, like they did on Panzerfaust with Celtic Frost. If you think about it, Darkthrone has been mimicking other bands for at least 2/3 of their existence. "Transilvanian Hunger" remains my favorite from them because it was new, dirty and atmospheric. This is the real contribution to the genre I'd say. The rest is well-done mimickery.

[rkoslov]

The only people that care about genres and trying to put things into neat little categories are those 'authorities' that want to try to control everything they ultimately can't, wanna-be rock stars who can only play 'technical' and by the 'book' - creating nothing, and weak-willed 'fans' who just want to fit in somewhere. Darkthrone is a pioneer in creating art that is beyond categories...destroying the walls that all of the above hide behind.

[UnholyBlackMETAL]

fuck ya dude, i couldnt agree with you more. I have Darkthrones discog on my PC, and there really isnt anything i dislike, its all badass shit.

[93riven]

ROTFL , maybe try buying some fucking RECORDS?

[UnholyBlackMETAL]

@93riven i have 5 of theres but i mainly get cds not records.

[Northernmight]

Get to it then. I got all early Darkthrone on Vinyl up to, and including Panzerfaust. This kind of music was made for vinyl. I'm not even trying to sound retro-elitist. but this kind of raw music just sounds better on vinyl and tape, than it does digitalised.

[Svartdoden]

@rkoslov Anyway they have labeled themselves as Metal Punk... Fenriz says that the whole time...

[cesarmalak]

@rkoslov Search for Sigh. That band's one of the greatest genre trancenders of our age.

[Hordesofnebulah]

@rkoslov u just couldn't say it better in any other way. perfect.

[Frozzd]

The sound is perfect.

[smuls88]

I listen twice Twice!

[wiker666]

This is so fucking badass!!! \m/

[Enysvar]

Im always thinking on good old Amebix when listening to Darkthone \m/

[Hermetiqa]

I think of Amebix, Axgrinder, Motorhead, Discharge etc. Hell, his vocals on this album sound just like Animal from Anti-Nowhere League.

[KevinIsBrootal]

Sound of iron, hard at work Flames of triumph, we'll get Keep that hammer pounding The autumn of no regret Keep our mountains free Our shores clean of thee Blacksmith of the north Ancient fire is burning in me The black rain is harsh But they will learn Our fathers of old Not hearing the yearns HAIL

[BlackHammer766]

Darkthrone lead the way in showing the rest of the metal world how it's done.

i hope they turn to some glam metal stuff to really throw a spaner in the works and piss people off....mind you i did see Satyricon covering Crue:'s shout at the devil , already.

[billdiana]

Just proof that when one goes so far out of his way to prove his brutality and grimness...he eventually loses the mind-battle of closet homosexuality. With Gaahl setting THAT trend, who knows...?

[hnh4]

great song! my top 5 on this album is:

1:hiking metal punks

2:hanging out in haigar

3:blacksmith of the north

4:death of all oaths

5:the winds they called the dungeon shaker
