come clarity is the best complete album in flames has, every other album is just a collection of hits and terrible filler. Only one that comes close is jester race and subterranean if it wasn't an EP.

Bullshit.
There is no quality control in metal anymore. It used to take contacts, talent and sheer "fuck you, society" attitude to get into metal. Now, randoms faggots can shit up the scene with terrible recording equipment en masse.
Where are the standards?
Where is the solidarity?
Metal is going through its "modern art" phase where simply playing distorted power chords warrants merit.

kek my face off m8
>>63258021
i bet he wanted to crash
>>63257909
sense of purpose has bit too much filler and that's the album when their lyrics hit their peak of god-fucking-damnit-anders-are-you-14? But the riffs are groovy as fuck and it's definitely daniels best album drumming wise
>>63258063
Good thing you're a fucking psychic and can tell this, despite Gold singing about killing himself since Woods 3 and never did.
Remember when Mgla was good , /meal/?
>>63257955
Very first song of very first album is about a car crash.
Very last song(s) of very last album is about his own death and his thoughts about it.
It's pretty eerie if anything
>>63258109
Mgła was never good.
>>63257953
the fact that this exists makes me happy
>>63258082
imo it was one of their albums that didn't have any filler. Yeah the lyrics are kind of gay but if you can get past that it kind of works at presenting a lot of feeling. I loved the atmosphere of the album, its something you can play at night cruising around high asf

It's the only album I've ever listened to where I think the drums are trying too hard.
I loved most of it, and Lunn is naturally an amazing drummer, but he just keeps going overboard when it isn't needed. Roots shows Saor doesn't need super fancy/fast drumming to work.
>>63259192
m8 i dont care if this is a joke post or not but if you say "best female vocals" and it isn't Darkestrah then it's not correct
>>63259246
it is corrext.
just listen.
you surely won't regret it
Euronymous and Varg were both edgelord faggots. Who fucking cares.
>>63259295
Euronymous was an angel. these lies about him were/are perpetrated by the envious
>>63258561
idk mang. abbath's pretty good

should I try Roots instead? and is Lunn the same lad who does Panopticon?
Metal elitists no longer hold a monopoly on taste.
In fact, their taste is too exclusive, which ends up alienating others, only leading to resentment and conflict which further weakens the position of elitists.
It's no longer possible for elites to exclude people or taste in the internet age.
Focusing too narrowly on a particular elite band, scene and genre as was done before by elitists (evidenced by metal magazines and zines) is a moot point since it is accessible by all now.
The new form of elitist is the idort, one who can appreciate Blut aus Nord and Deathspell Omega simultaneously without distinguishing them as either patrician or pleb.
Metal elitism as a practice is dead and it has given way to hybridization of taste which expresses itself in the sound of new bands emerging on the scene.
>>63259386
The fact that so many books still name Deathspell Omega as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" black metal band ever only tells you how far black metal still is from becoming a serious art. Death metal critics have long recognized that the greatest death metal bands of all times are Demilich and Atheist, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Thrash critics rank the highly controversial Coroner over thrash bands who were highly popular in radio stations around the bay area. Black metal critics are still blinded by commercial success. Deathspell Omega sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Dath metal critics grow up listening to a lot of death metal of the past, thrash metal critics grow up listening to a lot of thrash metal of the past. Black metal critics are often totally ignorant of the black metal of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that Deathspell Omega did anything worthy of being saved.

>>63259386
>>63259415
>>63259415
Lolololol Demilich is nowhere near the best DM band, wtf are you talking about?
Contemporary black metal bands never spoke highly of Deathspell Omega, and for good reason. They could never figure out why Deathspell Omega's songs should be regarded more highly than their own. They knew that Deathspell Omega were simply lucky to become a folk phenomenon (thanks to "Deathspell Omania", which had nothing to do with their musical merits). That phenomenon kept alive interest in their (mediocre) musical endeavours to this day. Nothing else grants Deathspell Omega more attention than, say, Dodecahedron or Ascension. There was nothing intrinsically better in the Deathspell Omega’s music. Nienhuis of Dodecahedron was certainly a far better songwriter than Khaos & Hasjarl. Dodecahedron were certainly much more skilled musicians than the 'Trve Three'. And Кpиcтoфop was a far more accomplished musician, capable of fusing Gregorian chants in “Litourgiya”; not to mention the far greater orthodox black metal bands who followed them in subsequent years or the first and second wave black metal bands themselves who initially spearheaded what Deathspell Omega merely later repackaged to the masses.

Nightfall in Middle Earth

AA's music is catchy as fuck and has more punch to it, I'll give you that, but in terms of songwriting DT is way better, even on We Are The Void
>>63260817
I'm not in a hall, I'm in a room

not sure if you're being sarcastic, since the production is shit. but it's the only flaw of the album. so if you were honest then you'll probably fall in love right away. it's the best power/thrash album ever made by far, nothing can compete.
>>63260872
I could never get into it, though. I'll give it another shot, what album do you recommend then?
>>63260822
>>63260849
>Litourgiya
this is gud, thanks m8
>>63260822
Nothing came close
>>63260926
you'd like The Gallery the best I suppose, WATV is actually my favorite release from them, I don't understand the hate for it
their most acclaimed albums are Damage Done and Projector though
>>63260946
>yet another gimmick-ridden bangwagoning shit
>>63260895
Well the Gotheburg sound spawned metalcore, so that's why you might think that
And DT are one of the few bands who is able to use keyboards well for building atmosphere instead of pure shredding like Scar Symmetry or Kalmah
>appeal to the PMRants type people
Yeah, some lyrics, especially on Construct are quite fedora tipping, but I still think Stanne is underrated as a lyricist and can do some good lines despite the angsty tone.

are there any pics of her without cp?
I mean I love cp, I really do, but no cp would be sexier in this single instance.

I have never heard of these bands before but I don't even need to listen to them to know they're shit.

post bands/albums that frustrate you
Mithras has great riffs, but their songwriting is so inconsistent. Some of their songs are a complete mess, seems like nothing fits together and they have no idea how to make it flow nicely.

>Spiral Architect are Dream Theater-tier garbage
Spiral Architect has far more in common with Watchtower or Psychotic Waltz than Dream Theater.

you forgot the shitty drum mastering, sarpanitum has the exact same problem, i wonder why's that
>>63261351
Nice BOKEH

Difference is both of those bands new how to write sings. Spiral Architect were overly technical for the sake of it and their use of fretless bass is responsible for abominations like Beyond Creation and Obscura
Thoughts?
