Yeah, he certainly is full of himself.
Very curious to hear what that sounds like. Guess I only have to wait 2 days!
2019 on Unique Leader.no idea if an actual album is coming or if we have to wait another 3 years for that to surface but I'll take this for now
Awesome. Slam promo singles always worry me
I really don't use Facebook to follow bands but from what I can tell the band is in an extant state, if not an "active" one. I don't think an album gets released let alone promoted like this for a band in turmoil without some party making a statement, so more than likely things have been patched up quietly and professionally in order to get this album released.Awesome. Slam promo singles always worry me
I'm curious if they patched things up with Matti or if he's just working with shit they already recorded, they were posting studio clips a year ago but everything around LVDF this year sounded like they fell apart

So, I decided to try to rank the DSP albums (well, except for Abruptum as I haven't heard those yet):
- Enslaved - Vikingligr Veldi: One of my absolute favourite black metal albums. I love the more progressive aspect, and dare I say kind of cheesy/keyboardish aspect? I don't know how to quite explain it
- Sigh - Scorn Defeat: Not my favourite Sigh album, but you still cannot go wrong with it! Essentially black metal that has a huge Celtic Frost-like sound
- Mayhem - De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas: Probably the DSP album, one of the most classic albums of black metal. Freezing Moon is an all-time classic
- Burzum - Burzum: Same thing with Sigh, in that I would not consider this to be Burzum's finest work, but it's still pretty enjoyable. War is also a hilarious tune
- Mayhem - Deathcrush: One of black metal's earliest releases, it's a nice introduction of what was to come out of the Norwegian scene
- Merciless - The Awakening: Pretty good death/thrash, however unlike the above-listed albums I would definitely not say that it's in the top echelon of its genre
- Burzum - Aske: To be honest, I don't even remember this EP really. So, I'd have to rank it last because it must not have left an impression on me
Pretty sure Abruptum would be #8 even if you had heard them. More experimental/noise than anything else.
Good list though! Mine would probably be almost the same, except I'd move Enslaved way down (ironically for basically the same reasons you have them so high). I also have trouble separating Burzum and Aske as I've always listened to them compiled together. I have a huge soft spot for Deathcrush, so that would probably move up too.
Yeah, I've heard they're fairly weak albums. I really like ambient music myself but I don't know if it'd fall into that category.
As for me, I am trying to discover some more bands and albums as I kind of stagnated in searching, I am listening to Tomb Mold at the moment.
Actually, with that in mind you should probably give them a try then. I'm a big fan of ambient too and I don't mind 'em. Just not the kind of thing I'd throw on in mixed company. They're really more noise/chaotic than ambient, but if you're into non-conventional stuff they might be worth checking out.
I hear you though, I always try to branch out into new stuff and then end up still listening to the same shit I've always been listening to. This community is a really good way to find new bands though. I've stumbled across a more than a couple of gems here.
Let me tell you, about 30 albums or so make up like 90%+ of my extreme metal listening:
And maybe a few others that are escaping my mind. Point is, I have a horrible tendency to go back to one of these albums, and I have a lot of trouble breaking that cycle.
- Carnage - Dark Recollections
- Entombed - Left Hand Path, Clandestine, Wolverine Blues
- Sigh - Ghastly Funeral Theatre
- Dismember - Like An Everflowing Stream
- Burzum - Hviss Lyset Tar Oss, Filosofem
- Napalm Death - Harmony Corruption
- Enslaved - Vikingligr Veldi
- Bathory - Bathory, The Return of Darkness & Evil
- Samael - Ceremony of Opposites
- Nokturnal Mortum - Goat Horns
- Edge of Sanity - Crimson
- Carcass - Necroticism: Descanting the Insalubrious
- Cynic - Focus
- Asphyx - The Rack
- Cryptopsy - None So Vile
- Terrorizer - World Downfall
- Repulsion - Horrified
- Disembowelment - Transendence into the Peripheral
- Mayhem - Deathcrush, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas
- Autopsy - Severed Survival
- Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten
- Darkspace - Dark Space I
- In Flames - The Jester Race
- Gotsu Totsu Kotsu - Retributive Justice
- Ulver - Bergtatt
- Agalloch - The Mantle
- Beherit - Drawing Down the Moon
- Dying Fetus - Destroy the Opposition
I'm way too lazy to type up a list, but I'm pretty much in the same boat. Some nice picks in there though, Drawing Down the Moon is one of my favorite records. Oath of Black Blood is great as well, but the Sarcofago influence can be a little overbearing. Love the vocals on that though, they sound like they're being played back through a shitty transistor radio.
Man, you're making me really want to pull out Ghastly Funeral Theatre again. I've been a Sigh fan for ages, but I must admit that's an album I've never gotten too heavy into.
Dismember - Like An Everflowing Stream
Cryptopsy - None So Vile
Repulsion - Horrified
Disembowelment - Transendence into the Peripheral
Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten
New Rotting Christ. Beelzebub Bless.

So, is there anyone that collects albums here? I only have a few CDs myself, my collection is pretty small.
I definitely do.So, is there anyone that collects albums here? I only have a few CDs myself, my collection is pretty small.
I have a few hundreds. But I've stopped buying CDs recently. Takes too much space and I just kinda rip them to listen on my phone/PC (with headphones) 99% of the time. So nowadays I get annoyed if they aren't on bandcamp hahahSo, is there anyone that collects albums here? I only have a few CDs myself, my collection is pretty small.
Same here, still like supporting bands on bandcamp. I will buy cds but only if my favorite bandsI have a few hundreds. But I've stopped buying CDs recently.

welcome to the next dimension. Re: collections:
have about 1200 CDs, 400 LPs, 200 MCs, 100 EPs, couple box sets. Also pretty big on merch, mostly for BDM. Last shot taken in honor of Erik Lindmark.
Same here.
I think the covert art of Dissection (Somberlain, Storm of the Light's Bane) or Emperor's In the Nightside Eclipse would go well with the dark theme, so maybe a mashup of those? Haha IDK, just an idea.I would be down. Gimme a good reference and I'll try something out.
