Album of the decade.
No, I don't expect anything to surpass it.
>>66478063
It's pretty good Prog DM, you should check it out.

The only good song from the album.
>>66478090
Towards One Goal is one of the top 10 greatest Thrash songs ever made.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IALUS-4TwKo
PHILOSOPHY TIME
Fact: on the first 5 Metallica records, the best songs are track 1 and 5 (only exception being Kill 'em All, since Anesthesia is a shitty song, so it's 1 and 6).
>>66477458
No, I don't think demons can kill themselves. From what I understand, they just wanted to carry on wreaking havoc instead of floating around looking for another host. The purposes of the story are basically to warn against the destructive nature of demons, and to demonstrate Jesus' authority over them.
>>66478256
>Enter Sandman is the best song on the Black Album
Also, the vocals absolutely kill Shortest Straw for me.
>"Shawtest Stwaaaaw!!!"
>>66478170
the whole album is goat as fuck
trve norwegian balck metel
>>66478256
battery is the worst song on puppets, trapped under ice is one of the weaker songs on ride the lightning, the shortest straw is probably the worst song on ajfa, and there are plenty of songs better than enter sandman on the black album
>>66478382
>the shortest straw is probably the worst song on ajfa
the title track, eye of the beholder, harvester of sorrow, to live is to die are all worse than shortest straw.
>>66478264
nice interpretation, anon
although, if i remember correctly, according to the Bible demons are just fallen angels and are physical beings
>>66477588
Without a doubt a Kek
"AVE
>Thanks for the letter. Yes, Goateye is stone dead! He blew his brains out with a shotgun after cutting open all his veins on his wrists and his throat! Brutal as the devil!
Well, the reason for doing this was that he lived only for the EVIL black metal scene, and its lifestyle with rivets, chains, crosses black clothes and hell. Today all "death" metal bands have normal clothing and jogging pants and look as ordinary as they can, and the same goes for the audience who are nothing but trendy little kids with jogging pants and skateboards! When he discovered that only (with a few exceptions) trendy children listened to us and came to concerts, and that all he stood for with the old evil scene was laid to waste by kids and hardcore-moral-political-idiots; he decided to die. I have declared WAR on the trendy children and FALSE "death" metal bands! Normal people should FEAR death metal! They will DIE!
But I must add that it was interesting to be able to study (half) a human brain and rigor mortis. When I found him I naturally got my camera and took CLOSE-ups of the corpse from different angles, and me and Hellhammer found 2 large pieces of the cranium that we have hung in neck chains. The pictures will be used on the Mayhem album. We will NOT disband! No way in hell! We believe a curse has been laid on Mayhem because EVERYTHING goes to hell, but I will NEVER give up! No, we will not attend his funeral because Dead would have HATED that. + it is expensive and he will not notice it much anyway. His mother told us that we have to be there but I don't give a fuck, I'm not a fucking therapist. I'm counting on that our bass player will be there, but that is because he is a sentimental wimp-fucker who didn't even have the guts to see the BLOOD. We will probably have a new bass player soon."
>>66478426
title track and instrumental are easily among the best
the other two you mentioned are similarly average like shortest straw, although eye of the beholder has a better chorus and i like harvester of sorrow for being the obligatory slower groovier song
shortest straw has little going for it aside from a catchy riff that probably influenced countdown-era megadeth
>>66478488
euronymous was goat
>>66478495
To Live Is To Die is the most repetitive and needlessly long song Metallica has ever recorded.
>>66478573
I disagree
>>66478488
>His mother told us that we have to be there but I don't give a fuck, I'm not a fucking therapist.
that fucking line out of nowhere. fucking black metal autists, you couldn't make this shit up
>>66478432
The Bible is frustratingly vague on the topic of demons and angels. It never uses the term 'fallen angels', and it doesn't say whether they're spiritual, physical or both. The Qur'an and the various Kabbalahs go into much more detail.
>>66478264
so in that case, why did jesus give them permission to wreak more havoc?
>>66478170
>not posting the original
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTX32-chxVE
>>66478856
i did always find that to be incredibly disappointing when i started reading the bible for the sweet lore
>elder godtier writing for the acoustic guitar
>sterile as fuck riff writing
baka desu senpai
why did euronymous look like ltcorbis?
>>66478856
I'm not 100% sure but I think the Book of Enoch covers that
>>66479023
>Euro looked like male Bjork
what did they mean by this
>>66478938
Like I said, as a warning. According to American theologian William L. Lane:
>Jesus allowed the demons to enter the swine to indicate beyond question that their real purpose was the total destruction of their host.
They had wanted to destroy the possessed man, just like they destroyed the pigs, but the man was more capable of resisting them.
I'm in need of punk/hardcore inflected metal, something sludgy and grimey, like it was recorded in half a foot of mud during a thunderstorm.

>>66479284
Killer, I'm a sucker for screeches, guitar or vocals.
>>66479053
Oh hey, you're right! I always wondered where people got the whole 'fallen angels' thing from.
Hey /metal/.
Opinions on this?
>>66479426
it came up in the previous thread:
>>66475193
>>66479426
/r/blackmetal seems to like it, so it probably sucks
>>66478963
I think the tora goes into that
>>66479454
Oh my bad, I should have checked first.
>>66479456
Granted, it was no melancholy2, but I was quite pleased with it.
>>66479456
so, it's not about music being good or not, it's about the fact that normies do or do not like it.... huh, i'm not surprised.
>>66479234

>>66479508
You have it backwards. If normies don't like it, then it's probably not good :^).
Anyway, I'm just memeing.
>>66479521
>mistress
mah nigga
>>66479559
Oh, i figured the sentence might sound like "if a normie likes it then it's good", but i totally didn't meant that.
Anyway, i'm glad you're not autistic :)

>>66478081
i like this
>>66479486
maybe i should re-rad the good old book one of these days
>>66479053
yeah, that's where most of the demon stuff comes from
Best book in the Bible and by far
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7M-jxi8LDA
>>66480296
The Book of Enoch isn't in the Bible.
>>66480352
shit, it isn't
it's just quoted in bible
>>66480296
Read the Apocrypha while you are at it.
It's books omitted from the old testament of the bible.
have any of you ventured out of /metal/ recently? it looks like grimesposting is getting pretty out of control.
>>66480586
Oh shit I remember that plane in skyrim.
Trippiest library ever.
>>66480586
Is it the shit that isn't boring and preachy?
>>66480602
We don't talk about those people here.
Best not to contaminate the best part of /mu/
I can't stop listening to Tense Stage.
>>66480586
sounds esoteric as shit, thanks for the rec a lot, anon! I legitimately appreciate it, i'll get some PDFs of these bitches in to time
>>66480602
it was always atrociously common
>>66480617
It's old Jewish books, that in some ways, contradict things written in the christian new testament, therefore the christians omitted these old jewish books when they compiled the bible in the 4th century.
>>66480221
nice mix of grind and death metal. too bad they don't play anymore. The drummer created a new band named Bodybag https://thebodybag.bandcamp.com/
>>66480626
THE GATES
>>66479234
not really punk-influenced, but this is pretty grimey:

>>66481033
Do you actually know any not bad crust or are you memeing m8?
>>66480586
Seconding this. The Book of Tobit is my favourite. It reads like a Brothers Grimm story.

Wow, this is actually pretty great
having a few long songs instead of a ton makes it much easier to digest, and it's just pretty great synth work. it's Midnight Odyssey goes Doomy instead of spacey and it's pretty great tbqhwy l a d s
i still don't get the whole ''dude what if i record this album as a split between all my solo projects lmao'' thing this album has got going on because the song don't really variate in style between all the different projects
So I've recently gotten into metal. I have been listening to a lot of opeth. Can you give me some other bands that are similar.
>>66481413
Lurk moar.
Also dig the charts.
>>66481413
Black Crown Initiate and also kill yourself
you might also like Ne Obliviscaris but they aren't really similar to Opeth
>>66481413
have you listened to Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson
>>66481443
>>66481447
Thanks
>>66481443
wow that is a shit chart
when was this made
>>66481463
No I havent
>>66481499
then do that shit
>>66480999
I'm on "Chapter VII." This song is particularly crushing.
>>66480880
sorry i couldn't tell what came after that part so i can't sing along

MESHUGGAH IS TOURING THE US AGAIN
I CAN'T WAIT
>>66483061
the intro is classic, but it manages to feel overlong and repetitive despite its short length
the chorus is longer than the verses ffs
>>66483113
I would put it slightly above Leper Messiah, but honestly I think that album is pure gold the entire way through
Best metal album of all time

>>66483113
i honestly never thought of any of Metallica's work as overlong until AJFA where it started getting proggier
then St. Anger's songs where ridiculously fucking overlong, to the point where it sounded like they were quite literally playing the same song twice on the same track
>>66483132
Yeah I still agree, Battery is still an 7-8/10 song for me and the whole album is amazing, one of the most forward-thinking of the 80s
>>66483158

theres better djent than meshuggah why are you fags creaming your pants over them
>>66483610
and black metal doesn't interest me
you don't see me saying RIFFS>ATMOSPHERE every thread though
>>66483630
Who said anything about djent? We're talking about meshuggah.
>>66483641
>you don't see me saying RIFFS>ATMOSPHERE every thread though
>>66483647
meshuggah is djent
>>66483641
i didn't go into DJERKS SHOULD BE USED AS LIVING FUEL territory though, i legit thought Meshuggah had broken up
>>66483660
No it isn't.
>>66483660
Djent is mostly shitty Meshuggah tribute
On the same topic, why aren't actual 'djent' bands on Metal Archives
There's no denying they are universally referred to under the wide metal umbrella
>inb4 djent isn't metal
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_UBfrUI6Yc
So how hipster is this?
scale of 1 to 10
>>66483695
>>66483699
they invented djent but theyre still djent
>>66483734
Genres where the guitar is used as a primarily percussive instrument are not liked by the metal archives guys. See: nu metal, djent
>>66483849
No, they aren't.
>>66483734
It's not though
>>66483888
meshuggah does like free jazz guitar solos on top of their percussive palm muted stuff all the time
>>66483630
so what is this djent that you claim is better than meshuggah
meshuggah is proto-djent, lads
meshuggah is just shit
Djent is shit
Meshuggah is djent
therefore, meshuggah is shit
it's simple logic senpaitachi
>>66483962
you take that back
>>66483991
And since black metal is shit
then
black metal is djent?
and
meshuggah is black metal
>>66483924
Don't ask for consistency when it comes to metal archives. Sometimes I think they exclude several bands / genres just to keep their respective fans out. On the other hand it's their site and just like mark Zuckerberg they can do what they want.
>>66484021
no
all djent is shit, but not all shit is djent. got it?
>>66482516
GAYgoroth shirt and fucking behemoth sweatpants? She is surely false, no entry for her
>>66483896
>>66483944
>>66483945
Meshuggah is djent
>>66484044
This is a new rule, added now, not part of the original logic. By the original logic, black metal is djent.
This is the new law.
>>66483812
>mfw it just keeps getting worse
both the music and the pictures
>>66484078
But it isn't.
>>66484092
This is a new law, added now, not part of the original law. By the original law, black metal is not djent.
>>66483518
anon I said no
>>66484115
explain how it isn't
>>66484128
There was no law before.
Are you just making shit up? Just because you don't want to admit you like blackened atmodjent?
That's sad

>bm hating djentfags cannot follow simple logic
you can't make this shit up
>>66484160
Djent was brought in with Periphery. Meshuggah only got called djent later.
Countries without metal:
Turkey
Thailand
Afghanistan
>>66484223
but they still meet all the requirements to be labeled djent.
so, they are djent.
>>66484222
Who said anything about hating black metal? Nobody. You made it up. Just now.
>>66484031
>Sometimes I think they exclude several bands / genres just to keep their respective fans out.
of course, nobody liked djent faggotry
>>66484267
And most black metal meets the requirements to be called surf rock
So, it is surf rock
>>66484272
>all this backtracking and denial
>>66484250
>Afghanistan
>having anything
>at all
Turkey actually has a lot of brutal death metal
>>66484292

>>66484282
Is djent already a thing of the past? Still hating on metalcore here to be h
>>66484298
>all this shit being made up on the spot
>/metal/ argues itself to death over genre definitions
hey guys that's the point, genres aren't rigid
[spoiler]meshuggah is good[/spoiler]
>>66484321
And black sabbath meets the requirement of rock.
And slipknot meets the requirements of death metal
and godflesh meets the requirments of nu metal
>>66484360
This is all true though.
>>66484360

I'm just saying, genres are meaningless. Therefore, meshuggah isn't djent.
I want some albums that can be described as "endlessly meandering"
>>66484420
>I'm just saying, genres are meaningless.
>Therefore, meshuggah isn't djent.
>>66484449
uh huh yeah and
>>66484411
He was and still is the only sane person in this band
>>66484468
if genres are meaningless, why do you get so worked up about meshuggah being called djent? and how does that make them any less djent?
>>66484500
Why are you worked up about meshuggah not being djent? What do you have to prove?
And again, djent is meaningless.
>>66484577
I'm not worked up about anything. I asked you why meshuggah isn't djent, and so far you haven't given me a good answer.

Well basically, I don't see how djent, which is a term used to describe bands who were influenced by meshuggah can applied to meshuggah. It's a genre that was created after they'd found their sound, and features more classically progressive metal characteristics like time signature changes, where Meshuggah are more of a technical groove

hi nwn
>>66484920
and wtf is wrong with Meshuggah? Doesn't that pleb BastardHead hate them?
>>66484739
that's a reasonable answer.
I still think that Meshuggah's riffing can be described as djent-y.
just like Black Sabbath can be described as doom metal, even though the term was invented for bands that drew influence from them.
but I myself don't refer to Black Sabbath as doom, so go ahead and call Meshuggah technical groove metal or whatever you think is best.
peace anon, I wish you the best in life.

>What do either of you think of the term djent as a stylistic designation? Is it valid?
>VAI: Gent?
>ABASI: Have you heard this term?
>VAI: No, except like a gentleman or something.
>ABASI: It’s djent.
>VAI Don’t know it. But then I have a harp player in my band who said, “Who’s Van Halen?” She didn’t even know Van Halen. I said, “Did you ever hear of Led Zeppelin.” She said, “I think I heard some of his music.” [laughs] I mean the phrase sounds familiar, but I don’t know what it is.
>ABASI: Djent is supposed to be what I’m doing. You’ve described it already. You’re hearing this sort of polymetric thing, a lot of palm muting and there might be ethereal clean tones over it. It’s essentially what they’re calling what this new wave of bands are doing; what I’m doing. Because you know what djent is? It’s like a chug on the low strings, like djent, djent, djent. It just has more treble.
>VAI: Oh, of course, yeah, I did hear that. But I never connected it.
>ABASI: Meshuggah’s the originator of djent. But what do I think of the term? I think people need to call things stuff.
>VAI: Amen.

think of a worse UltraBoris. He's more concerned with making jokes rather than actually reviewing the albums, and he has a terminal case of shit taste. I don't disagree with everything he says, but overall he is a huge pleb.

He's never running out of insults though
>only one metal band called Death
>only one metal band called Obituary
>35 bands named Requiem
>>66485327
everyone knows Death. everyone knows Obituary. no one knows any of the 35 Requiems.
>>66485327
The metal community respects some bands enough to not obviously use their name
Death is the greatest band of all time, so nobody is going to steal their name
>>66485327
Death metal master race! So unique, creative and talented! Rip In Peace Chuck!
\m/ Horns up brother \m/
>>66485370
>Death is the greatest band of all time
>>66485351
It's just surprising that no one else, even in the 80s, released anything under those names. Also funny that not one of those 35 Requiems is notable. Surely ONE must be good.
>>66485370
>Death is the greatest band of all time

>>66485267
This album kicks so much ass. One of the few HH albums that really lives up to the music it worships.
>>66485426
Dude how did Chuck invent death metal entirely by himself? And then manage to improve himself on every album and totally outplay such skilled guest guitarists? What a genius.
>>66485403
/r/music is having fun with that one right now lol
>>66485455
Oh yeah. Definitely. 100%. How right you are. Amazing. Genius. Invented death metal.

How deep does the duckhole go?
A wider range of vocals and a stronger melodic talent surfaced on Crack The Skye (Reprise, 2009), which at times sounds like an emocore crossover album (Oblivion, Quintessence), and sometimes a progressive-rock album (the magniloquent Divinations, the 10-minute jam The Czar that propels a languid hymn), sometimes even bordering on pop-metal (Crack the Skye). The 13-minute The Last Baron is emblematic of how confused and unrealistically ambitious these Mastodon can be: swinging between speed-metal and arena-pop, the piece is practically devoid of any emotion, meaning or purpose. There is very little that is "technical" about Mastodon's music at this point. They are closer to Dream Theater than their fans are willing to admit.

>>66485650
>I assume I know what people mean, when I clearly do not
>>66485604
I always hated this band and baroness as well what the fuck is this music supposed to represent? This is wolfmother tier metal

isn't that a symptom of autism?

Not really. Not getting emotional cues or some like that is though.

do any Frenchbros who read music magazines remember this band?
It's this Industrial Metal/Digital Hardcore band with a lot of pop punk in it, i remember back in the early/mid 2000s it being this album being reviewed on several magazines (one of them was a French translation, i believe) reviewing this album like it was the maddest shit ever, how different japanese music was and how MCM's was a perfect encapsulation of that culture clash. It's pretty crazy and honestly melancholic in a nostalgic way looking back on those years to see just how fucking wrong we were.
>>66485864
Kek
Is there a reason you guys hate on Baroness, Mastodon and Gojira other than being cuck metal?
>>66486481
Before it was cuck, it was hipster pitchfork-core and that's all that ever mattered
>>66486481
Gojira because they're terrible. I don't hate the other two but they went shit fast, and I'm disappointed, especially in Mastodon.
>>66486481
Baroness and Mastodon are just boring pseudo-sludge and Mastodon is boring pseudo-death, but that's just me
really, i think it's the implications of the people listening to them, the usual which is ''i don't like [genre] but this is fantastic :DDDDD'' if they don't outright say ''most death metal is shit but this is agdually breddy gud 4/5''
you can see why a community of people who do love these genres could come to resent these people, who disregard music by musicians who work extremely ward to become talented songwriters and musicians with few prospects regarding making money from said music only for them to mindlessly praise what is essentially a dumbed down, accessible version of the music they were calling ''childish'' or ''edgy'' or any other buzzword of choice
but those are just my 2 cents on it

>>66486719
Baroness and Mastodon feels like vaguely Prog Metal with lots of distortion and fuzz, and no actual punk or doom influences, so i don't even get why these kinds of bands are getting called sludge nowadays
Gojira is just the softest, most accessible groove based death metal possible to the point where i wonder to myself if it actually is death metal
and i'm not really an elitist
>>66486785
you need to have some pretty serious ogre genes to reach that point anon

Are you telling me there is no punk or doom at all in this track? Of any kind?
>>66486834
no, that's one of their sludgier and better tracks, but listen to the majority of their stuff and tell me that ''mix of hardcore punk and doom metal'' is what comes to your mind

I'm not saying that's how I'd describe their sound, but it's definitely part of the equation, at least on their first three albums.
>>66486878
Right back atcha buddy.
>>66486861
It's not like they were the ones claiming they were sludge. You know how labels can be with marketing.
>>66486915
kek, that is true
i remember back in the early 2000s i went to a record store and Fredrik Thordendal's Sol Niger Within was tagged as ''Post-Thrash Metal''
Deafheaven too, they don't even call themselves black metal, it's just marketing pushing that shit as le thinking man's black metal and the hip and cool crowd eating it up
>>66486892
look, anon, they definetely have sludge in their sound, but that's not really their main genre and that was really not my point
