this is probably the best song ever written.

Fags in the Men's Room

@misterbilbotbaggins It's true they aren't "Satanic", yes. They would fit in more of an Pagan overtone. They're angry, but angry for nature. Darkthrone, Mayhem, Emperor etc ad nauseam are angry for "Satan". Burzum (Varg) is angry for Nazi's. Tartaros sounds like a Scooby-Doo episode. Immortal are big fans of Kiss. (well Abbath is) Anyway, you can group and put all the band into sub-groups all you want, but who has time for that? Wait, I just did .. I am cuckoo for Coco-Puffs..

[misterbilbotbaggins]

@EvanesEmperor Oh, ok, glad to hear that we can still be friends. :) I don't think this band is bad per se, just saying that their intricate, erotic, aesthetic, and maybe even beautiful compositions would be a better fit with the dreampop / shoegaze / indie set than with warlike, angry, alienated black metal. I also think the guys who said this is the best song in the world had to be stoned out of their mind and exaggerating. I was also exaggerating a bit when I ripped on it. ;p

[EvanesEmperor]

@misterbilbotbaggins Nah, you're okay, just wrong, that's all Hipster. lol. Didn't think you knew what one was. What is "insulting you properly"? All I did was "insult you." As for composition: this band makes more than one song that beautifully written, not to mention intricate, erotic and aesthetic. Perhaps you can do better? I am still trying to figure out why you're on this forum if you don't like it.

[misterbilbotbaggins]

@EvanesEmperor Wiener? Wow, you hipsters can't even insult people properly. Guess I must have pushed your buttons since you're resorting to name calling.

[EvanesEmperor]

@EvanesEmperor By the way douche, you didn't pick the most "kvlt" of Emperor songs ... or Burzum , or even Graveland. Go spam another video -- You're such a wiener.

[EvanesEmperor]

@misterbilbotbaggins You already used that argument. This belongs in a Wolves in the Throne Room video, not one of your nerd video games. I guess you would know what good pop sounds like right?

[misterbilbotbaggins]

@EvanesEmperor You can call this pop song metal all you like, but that doesn't change the fact that it is pop and belongs in a Dragon Age video game. It's not a matter of "rawness." but of composition.

[EvanesEmperor]

@misterbilbotbaggins @misterbilbotbaggins Okay, so it's not sarcasm. This IS black metal. It's atmospheric and different from the Norwegian, Swedish and other European counterparts. I didn't see your other comments, that is why I was asking. Yes, I know who Emperor, Burzum, and Graveland are. Just because this band doesn't sound as raw as the 2nd wave, doesn't mean they're not black metal. I should have looked at your back comments.

[misterbilbotbaggins]

@EvanesEmperor Sarcasm? So then you agree with the other posters, that this is possibly the best song ever written? I was here because I clicked on a link, and this isn't black metal. If you'd like to hear melodic black metal, may I direct you to: I am the Black Emperors or Inno A Satana by Emperor (or anything off their first LP) My Journey to the Stars or Key to the Gate by Burzum, or Gates to the Kingdom of Darkness by Graveland. Good luck and enjoy!

@misterbilbotbaggins I am sensing sarcasm, but not sure .. It's alright if you don't like this, but if you don't, then what are you doing on this forum? This is the perfect formula for atmospheric, melodic black metal.
