Because you prefer the styles typical of that genre's album art over the other kinds.
I like Mayhem, but their newer releases are too patrician for me. Esoteric warfare? What a bunch of patrician garbage. But it's too late for them to return too their raw, youthful and ultimately fun pleb days.
Stay pat, Mayhem, there's still enough excellent pleb releases to enjoy.
>>63647353
They're all high and looking at surreal art.

Hey /meal/, I was in here a few days ago saying I was going to see Nile and Melechesh on Sunday.
Well, I did. And shit was so. Fucking. Tight.
Dallas spoke to me. Me specifically. From the stage.
Definitely the best show I've ever been to.
>>63647478

>>63647377
If only the other 3 sounded like Amon Amarth, then I would have a bunch of new bands to listen to
>>63647427
Genres are just general terms that will never be suitable to describe what any band sounds like.
Take this for example : if you tell someone that Death play death Metal to someone who has only heard teitanblood before, he might be disappointed.

I can now also fully recommend Melechesh's live work (their albums kick ass, even more so on stage).

Last night I had a crazy vivid dream based on some album art someone posted. I was digging this hole and worms came out. I was using the shovel to scoop them out, and suddenly I had this terrible feeling... Satan lurched at me from within the hole of worms, and was then out on the surface, and there was nothing I could do. It was worse than any nightmare I had as a kid. I can only blame it on /metal/.

Listened to that album today. Together with the two EPs before, the most important release for death and black metal, going beyond any thrash and blowing the entire thrash genre out of the water and making it obsolete right then in 1984/5.
Also, that production and guitar sound slays so fucking hard.
It also stands the test of time, hey I said hey UGH!

it's not even very brutal. I'm not denying it's influence and importance, but there's little thrash on To Mega Therion so your claim was baseless.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcmZQOFEU7s
>>63648878
I'm only starting to get into the genre so I can't do that much. Stuff like Persuader, Edguy, The Sword, Scar Symmetry. I dont like harsher vocals, but as long it's not the majority it's not an instant no. Having some sweet guitar/melody to counter it is a big plus.

>>63649130
So you're saying it made thrash obsolete in '85?
>>63649085
The Sword and Scar Symmetry aren't power metal though.
Eh, go check Angra, they're probably my favorite metal band.

To go beyond thrash it would have to go through thrash first, and it doesn't. I think it's not a valid comparison.

Both of those bands, and in fact most thrash bands, released their best, most critically acclaimed albums after '85.
My favorite bands are Cryptopsy, Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, and Dying Fetus. I love low vocals, groovy riffs, and a monstrous rhythm section. Who should I listen to?
>>63649200
To say that celtic frost had no thrash influence at that time is just retarded. Do you think their music just fell out of the sky, Tom picked it up and said : UGH, hey, that's some nice stuff

Swiss Celtic Frost are part of the black trinity of European metal with Venom and Helloween. Formed in 1984 by vocalist Tom Warrior, debuted with the mini-album Morbid Tales (Noise) and Emperor's Return, solemn and somber works that defined the new genre of "black metal".
The first album, To Mega Therion (Noise, 1985), presented a different novelty, including the arrangements of symphonic long Dawn Of Megiddo and Necromantical Screams
6.5/10
>>63649532
Very good call on katharsis, I like teitanblood even more. Both can take credit for advancing this usually stale piece of shit genre that is metal though.
>>63649606
It's pretty good, Julie is awkward at times but the actual music is solid. Not their best but a Cult of Luna album is a Cult of Luna album, we already know what it's going to sound like.

>>63649651
Reign in Blood (1986) launches the singer Tom Araya, the drummer Dave Lombardo and guitarists Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman (the real brains of the music) in the Valhalla of the genre. The speedmetal Angel Of Death and Postmortem is not only urgent, but also stun; It draws its lifeblood from representations "shock-horror" of the predecessors (from that of Motley Crue) and erects monuments to aberrant vampire madness of mankind. Hectic songs like Altar Of Sacrifice are documentaries, screened triple speeds, ceremonial Satanic gruesome. Raining Blood closes the skit banner of more tempestuous moods, as if the Last Judgment was at the gates (only possible conclusion of the ultimate abyss ).
Despite continuing enthusiasm, the compositions of the Slayer always retain a minimum of identity melodic, although canceled in the breathless blather typical of thrash. Reign in Blood is one of the heavy-metal milestones (even on the producer Rick Rubin).

If I read the rest of the post I'd also not laugh.

Let's just face it, if varg says the world is better off without him, he's probably right. And how can you not like Varg? He's like the Ronald Reagan of black metal.

I actually agree with Varg though.
Euronymous was demented.
>>63649943
Perhaps some other controversy would get in the way, but Euro was definitely the scene's central figure and he seemed to have an acumen for picking musicians to sign or collaborate with. We can only imagine what direction he would have gone, and how BM would be different had his murder not attracted such attention.

They are/were probably both bad people who made great music.

>Implying being demented is not the best state to be in when it comes to making metal

>>63650007
lies. smears. euronymous was an angel
>>63650068
he deserves it for that terrible facial hair
>>63650056
Was Euro the Brian Wilson of black metal?
Does that make Varg the Mike Love?
Is "Rundgang Um Die Transzendentale Säule Der Singularität" his "Kokomo?"
>>63650077
He couldn't help his mongol genes. Perhaps it also inspired him to create warlike music. I wonder if Euro could play guitar backwards on horseback.
>>63650056
that's not what I said. I just agreed that he deserved to die.
>>63649896
Euro would have gotten himself killed or arrested, if not by Varg then somebody else for the edgy shit he was planning to do for muh trve inner circle
>>63650079
Yes to all of that although I'm still more with the Ronald Reagan comparison. Ronald Reagan was an actor who curiously got to be president and varg was a talentless hack who curiously played some music, I guess. Post prison varg is great for some hilarious antics though
>>63650079
Varg is more like the John Lennon to Euro's Brian Wilson
>musicians in the same band dating
>two of the band members are married
>>63650199
99% of all non-vocalist females on metal bands are/were in a relationship with another member. prove me wrong.
>>63650199
Fuck, you reminded me how much I wish White Zombie stayed together

Nothing wrong with beautiful people sharing their love for music <3

Was it Albini or someone who said that every time he witnessed a band form featuring two members in a relationship or a band gaining a member who was in a relationship with an already active member it would end up in disaster?
>>63650303
sounds like something he'd say
>>63650303
It usually does.
That's why I'm always thinking Electric Wizard is going to fuck up. Liz is cool and all but having your wife as a band member is fucked.

Worked fine for Giant Squid.
Goodnight North America
