Favourite gothic metal album?
Any other bands out there like Tempel?
Brief reminder that S.O.B. and G.I.S.M. are not metal, they're hardcore, and should not be discussed in this general.

Post your charts. Black metal and death metal preferred
>>63349284
They've still been playing grind/thrash at actual metal/hardcore shows but they mostly just play live at clothing conventions playing scenecore and pop-punk, it's weird.

>mfw /mu/ talks about metal
>>63349848
I don't get the joke behind Altars of Madness, Obscura, Dissection, and the Burzum s/t.
Indeed, this is not just simply another Christian "black" metal act. This is worse than any straightforward Christian "black" metal, because this utter bullshit is masquerading as the "new black metal that is pushing the boundaries and will save black metal, taking it to another level." Complete bullshit. This is Christian metal, disguised in the name of "Satan," appealing to the mindless sheep that cannot grasp the idea of what real black metal is. This is built upon bullshit ideology, with no musical substance that will make it worthy of a listen. This, along with the entire "Orthodox black metal" garbage, should be forgotten. THIS is the worst offense black metal can ever receive, not Christian "black" metal. Theism has no place in black metal, and theistic bands cannot be called black metal no matter how much they try to emulate the aesthetics of black metal. One can only guess whether they are genuine about their faith in Satan as a deity or just in for the money and fame. But one thing is clear: those theistic bands are highly reprehensible either way. The "Orthodox" trend should be eradicated.
Again, I repeat: this is not black metal. This is Christian music.

also maybe some minor stuff like Mesarthim, Nontinuum and Adbent Sorrow

As one of the people who don't hate melodeath, most modern stuff is pretty mediocre with few exceptions
>>63350521

>>63350484
melodic death metal??? it's gay...
>>63350486
So stop bitching and grow a pair.

>new Omnium Gahterum, Belakor, Scar Symmetry, Amon Amarth, Dark Tranquillity, Intestine Baalism and in the same year
Could this year be the return of melodeath?
>>63350556
Wouldn't really consider that pure MDM but i'm sure it has it's influence.
I always thought Dismember - Death Metal was a great bridge between OSDM and MDM
in terms of "modern melodic death metal" i wouldn't really consider Insomnium and Amon Amarth modern though they're still making good, consistent and marketable releases
not sure how to describe MMDM really? more electronic synth and clean vocals with pop song structures? yeah I don't see that going down well here...
>>63350567
haha yeah except i was genuinely serious.
>>63350633

you know i was gonna disagree with you but the production of this is fairly "modern" though the music is like thrashy VK style MDM with orchestra... and marketed to weeaboos... lmao... "doujin metal"....

I didn't say I like S.45, in fact I think they have one of the buttmetal-est sounds in metal today. And what's up with that retarded name? Christian made a bad choice. Still, Scar Symmetry is nothing without him.

yeah the quality of albums on that chart is really spotty, but so is the quality of the subgenre so it kinda fits

drop trip please

People called FIFH out on being a shitter long before /metal/ went to shit, m80.
The problem wasn't even really the music he posted as far as I'm concerned -- I happen to like a lot of the things he shared. But he was a first-degree fucking autistic moron who could only talk about one thing (muh orthodox dissonance) and would spam the same bands over and over again. I for one am glad he doesn't post here anymore.

tastepolice is more of a fedoratipper than an autist, but that's minor distinction admittedly

Soilwork don't even write the best melodies in melodeath, but the are still solid apart from mid era albums

I always loved it when a guy would ask "what is orthodox" and within a minute he'd respond. I always thought he samefagged because he would always get abnormally amount of positive feedback from bands he posts.
