Bumped - am currently listening to Unearthly Trance's "Electrocution" CD for the first time tonight, and so far it's been excellent. Highly recommend if you like your sludge-doom.

Anyone else here picked up any good metal recently?

batreleaser · 08.12.2008, 05:27 PM

metal ive been digging lately (ive always been into metal, but theres always a few bands who are rocking me more than others):

beherit (second record)
revenge-victory intolerance mastery
impiety
order from chaos
sadistik exekution
blasphemy
7000 dying rats

^^^I currently don't own any Beherit. I must track some of their stuff down - is the second album the best one to start off with?

thier first album, 'the oath of black blood' is decent straight ahead thrash/black metal, but for that reason, its regarded as shit. beherit is a band known for making black metal that was truly as avant and strange as it was brutal and dark.

the classic is thier second album, 'drawing down the moon'. it has everything we love about early black metal, satanic imagery, fast and heavy as shit, tons of blast beats, and rawly recorded. but, it also has tons of experimental sounds; spaced out synth sonds, strange use of whispers, computer altered vocals (much like noise vocalists), and a healthy dosage of noise esque feedback. its a remarkable record in every way. for me, only second to 'transylvanian hunger'.

thier third and fourth records are actually solo records by marko laiho under the same moniker. they are not black metal, but actually dark ambient records. not bad, but its clear that his forte was making wierd black metal. whenever i listen to this shit i cant help but think, "lustmord does this better".

they rule. and oh yeah, thurston approves!

MellySingsDoom · 08.12.2008, 05:54 PM

I'm definitely getting that second Beherit album now - cheers batreleaser!

Everyneurotic · 08.12.2008, 05:58 PM

i haven't listened to much metal lately, only thing i guess it's motorhead.

demonrail666 · 08.12.2008, 06:01 PM

The new Grand Magus album is okay if you're in the mood for it. A lot more 'traditional' than their first few. You'd almost think they came from England in the early 80s.

Everyneurotic · 08.12.2008, 06:22 PM

stoner rock...i have the obsessed first album on my ipod, i figured i'll give them a fair chance; heard songs here and there every once in a while but never clicked for me.

batreleaser · 08.12.2008, 07:36 PM

too many doom/stoner bands, scene is very saturated. id rather listen to dopesmoker or dopethrone on repeat for a few weeks then listen to anything coming outa that scene though. and yet, there are still plenty of good sludge bands.

Everyneurotic · 08.12.2008, 07:54 PM

yeah, i'm sick of bands playing swans with power chords.

Toilet & Bowels · 08.12.2008, 08:17 PM

elysian blaze are good doom, striborg bloke's other band, not as bizarre as striborg, just decent blackened doom.

Onani Nic · 08.12.2008, 08:22 PM

I'm pretty sick of new doom / stoner metal bands too. I do like the two Mammatus albums Holy Mountain put out though but they're probably a bit closer to psych.

Rediscovering some old favourites + a couple of new purchases:

Death - Scream Bloody Gore
Napalm Death - Scum
Pentagram - First Daze Here Too (compilation)
Saint Vitus - Born Too Late
Repulsion - Horrified
Mayhem - De Mystriis
High on Fire - 1st two albums
Venom - 1st two albums

and

WOLD - Stratification (although it's probably half way between black metal and power electronics)

striborg is fantastic, should check elysian blaze out.

dionysusundone · 08.12.2008, 10:48 PM

I'm gonna have to check out that Beherit.

I quite like the new N.I.L. album, has a bm cover of "Bad Houses" on it.

Death & the Maiden · 08.13.2008, 02:52 AM

Most of what I've been listening to lately has been metal. Mainly black metal though.
Fimbulwinter
Mayhem
Darkthrone
Windir
Ancient
Bathory
Satyricon
Immortal
Burzum

As well as Candlemass and Iron Maiden.

batreleaser · 08.13.2008, 06:40 AM

i love striborg, dont like the new one as much though. that dude is PROlific.

Toilet & Bowels · 08.13.2008, 10:04 AM

my favourite striborgs are misanthropic isolation, and trepidation

Phlegmscope · 08.13.2008, 10:26 AM

There was a beherit double LP compilation released some time ago and it's still in print... for those who care. Haven't heard it, but I did enjoy The Oath of Black Blood.

batreleaser · 08.13.2008, 06:42 PM
