There's no one definition of Black Metal. Immortal would say it's about cold, frostbitten Scandinavian landscapes, Mayhem would say it was about war, destruction, Satan Darkthrone would say it was about saying 'Fuck you' and doing your own thing, Burzum would say it was about fantasy, a call for Europeans to remember their heritage and Gods. I could go on. But the one thing they all hold in common is a hatred for the modern world and its values. Something I think we can all relate to.
@ArTir14- These videos are usually a forum for complete fucking morons who aggressively argue the most useless, idiotic opinions ever expressed. Your comment is refreshingly well thought out, and totally 100% accurate.
after reading some reviews i was worried that there wouldnt be much ambience but my doubts were proven wrong. that about does it for trusting reviews at all...
Why do people argue on any youtube video at all? It's because you have thousands of people all collaborating on one website with vastly different opinions and all want to be listened to. Not everyone's going to get along :)
If art crit is an individual right of the art consumer, then why, upon my original criticism of the song, which dealt with the fact that it hardly leaves its repitition of 6 chord to 1 chord, was I met with a bunch of worthless spew? The public fashions themselves critics, but without practicing an art, studying it, and contemplating those studies often, there can be no delicacy of taste, just uneducated individual fancy.
I think the people who leave bad comments are just jealous that nobody likes there music. Stop its pointless, your changing nobodys opinion and your make a huge ass of yourselves. If nobody likes your music, dont criticize other to make yourself fell better!
Music is an expression, an Art, leave it be. Respect and be Respected!!!
Yeah things like reading and following geopolitics and world affairs is such a waste of time compared to listening to dungeons and dragons metal bands in your Mom's basement. Fucking imbecile.
'Yeah things like reading and following geopolitics and world affairs is such a waste of time compared to listening to dungeons and dragons metal bands in your Mom's basement.'
You can do both without being a cunt about either occupation. Try it.
yawn, 1 chord, six chord, 1 chord, six chord, for how many minutes? On what basis are we judging this as amazingly awesome? How does it stack against Emperor, Myrkskog, Gorgoroth, or Tsjuder? Sure, it's pretty, but it's far too simple.
yeah, that was a good response, it really addressed and rebutted anything I said...
And are you in a black metal band? I am, and we do write 10 minute+ long songs, packing them much more full of exposition, development, and recapitulation of themes than this music. It's not like it's the worst music in the world, but it lacks that depth I expect in form. Try responding with something to defend the opposing point instead of just getting offended and going BLAAAAAAAAAA
there is nothing coneited about wanting some real dialogue instead of a bunch of worthless spew. But if that's how you are going to view intellectualism, fuck you g and go kill yourself. I am in the only good American black metal band and within two years we will show all these fucking boring wannabes what good music and satan can actually do together. /spit
"within two years we will show all these fucking boring wannabes what good music and satan can actually do together"
aha, very interesting. could you name us your band, please? i am into black metal since about 10 years, i worship it's innovative and creative milestones, but are also massively bored about nowadays foolish exuberance - like you seem too. give me the name and we'll hear again in 2 years.
impossible though it seemed, you actually managed to shove your empty head even farther up your rancid gaping ass in comment #2 than you did the first time around. it's like watching a toddler soil his pants and refuse to surrender them for pride's sake. but it's a foolish pride, g.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
go kill yourself, this band sucks just like every other American piece of shit pretending to contend with the likes of Tsjuder and Taake. Faster, more elaborate, far more evil, better in every single way. All you can do is spit insults, that's not talent to be proud of on the internet. I was fair in my first comment, now I say fuck you, and fuck this worthless American trash.
how the fuck can you say they're trying to be like Tsjuder? that's already a whole different sound. You don't even like American Thrash either? Eh...your loss, no Absu for you :D
Anyway, your obviously just trying to create arguments so people can check out your band. Weak.
not American thrash, American trash. I bow before Slayer and the rest of the gods, of course. And I wouldn't say this band is trying to be Tsjuder, but rather that they can't hold a candle to them. I'm just being a dick because no one has anything to contribute to my original criticism besides "FAG GO DIE"
lol Sputnikmusic has virtually no votes for either of those bands, so I'm just going to assume that nobody cares about them. And American metal is shit? Maybe that "New Wave" shit, but the underground jems are worth looking in to. Extreme metal doesn't belong simply to northern Europe =)
@BloodeatingDespot Taake's good, but Tsjuder and Gorgoroth have been releasing the same cd everytime. I dont care if this comment is a year old, you sound like an arrogant retard and I wanted to see if anything had changed in twelve months. I see that you haven't posted any music yet either so im curious how thats been going as well
We're still waiting on the name of your awesome BM band. Name please? And if you think that there are no interesting USBM bands, you should check out Agalloch. For much more "extreme" USBM you can try Anaal Nathrakh; their music will smash your skull in. Try out "In The Constellation of the Black Widow" that album is heavy as balls and incredibly evil.
The band is Hubris. As soon as we have a quality-sounding recording (I'd say about two months) I will post it. For now, go ahead and call it empty boasts.
hate to be such a douche about it zarucarsha but anaal nathrakh are from britain....i agree with your comment in general but the nerd within me has to be picky forgive me lol
'yawn, 1 chord, six chord, 1 chord, six chord, for how many minutes? '
Well if you want lots of chords, I guess this isn't your kind of band then, *yawn*
'On what basis are we judging this as amazingly awesome?'
On the basis that we put it on and we liked it. Perhaps even on the basis that this is a band that can make a big sounds and a strong atmosphere with very few chords. Is that okay with you?

Personally i like all kinds of black metal bands
Examples: Burzum, Drudkh, Emperor, Hate Forest, Mayhem, Taake, and Vader.
its not hard to say that you dont like this style in a calm and mature way, with out proving to the whole youtube community how immature you are.
