    onfg, those dude are totally ripping off justin bieber font!!!1

     

    justin-bieber-purpose-tour-merch4_o3s4e4

     

     

     

    Yeah. People have been ripping off the beebs retroactively for decades now,

     

    s-l400.jpg

     

    plus they're all ugly and none of them can dance for shit either. It's a pretty sad state of affairs.

     

     

    Some pretty serious Frank Frazetta (RIP 2 tha gawd) influence at work on the album art as well.

     

     

     

    the funny thing is in an official statement pentagram admitted they ripped the font themselves from the cover of sabbath bloody sabbath... i was like "how the fuck did i never notice this?!" XD

     

    apropos pentagram: in commemoration of the passing of terry jones (yeah no, not that one) exactly one year ago i hereby post some damn dööööm by the legendary pagan altar who somehow managed to go pretty much unnoticed for 20 odd years til their first official release:

     

     

    those vocals mang... T_T one of the true godfathers of awesome nasal metal vocals!

     

    more great nose metal (let's start off with some more doom for context reasons):

     

     

    this album raised quite the ruckus back in 06, still it should be their last. from a metal archives review:

    "I definitely liken this album to sitting in your best friend's bedroom as a 13 year old, forced to listen as he proceeds to pour his heart out about Wendy Syphilis or whatever his latest crush is. That's pretty exactly what this is, just stretched out for an hour."

     

    but now for the real deal, mr. nose himself: MARK THe FUCKINGF SHARK OF MIGHTY MANILLA ROAD!!1

     

     

    this is my fav manilla track and it's not even on any album... dat beatdown at 4 min... das some balls asploding action right there!

     

    less nose but just as legendary in terms of epic metal: CIRITH UNGOL! most people would probably recommend foot or king first, but my fav has to be the debut with hits such as "i'm alive" and "edge of a knife"... which i can't happen to find on the tubes dafuq?! maybe even better is this: http://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Cirith_Ungol/Servants_of_Chaos/67593 because more synthy and annoying.

    k this live version is as good as it gets apparently:

     

     

    gotta love those lyrics. i know for a fact that this album actually saved the live of a quite notorious grindcore singer person!

  2. links

     

    out of those only yellow eyes really fit into what i was referring to... they're ok-ish (early-) krallice worship, tho, didn't really check out last album yet.

    flol @ "botanist" (the name)... reminds me of:

    shit on wittr, now i'm coming for yo head, boy.

     

    do your worst! ;D ... i mean they're not annoyingly-terrible-bad or anything just so very lukewarm... sorry :I

     

    here, have some hopefully conciliatory gay-ass purple copycat musics:

     

     

    (featuring gers later known as the fifth wheel of maiden)

    ok now apparently for whatever reason this album hasn't been mentioned in this thread yet (at least according to text search):

     

     

    this is THE bathory record to me. the word "epic" was invented to one day describe it. i remember like yesterday listening to shores in flames (dat fuckin solo!!!) and valhalla for the first time: feelings of manliness awoke deep within me i didn't even know i was capable of! gallons of blood were cried, pissed and sweat that day. fuck! it also features the most adorable kind of singing to me: completely brutish and off-key sometimes but shitloads of fervour to make more than up for it! 11/10.

  3. personally i'm feeling somewhat ambivalent about current trends in black metal (not coming from a self-proclaimed "trve"-guy, tis been a while i turned 16 now...), alot of the stuff feels rather toothless (eg. wittr (just zzz), deafheaven (extended 2nd rate 90s-screamo riffs with blast beats, ew)) while coming off as too try-hard "deep" and artsy with all that ritualistic and "philosophic" mumbo jumbo.

     

    on the other hand i'm a rabid fan of "hipster"-favourites krallice and i was thrilled hearing 2 new tracks in this live recording:

     

     

    if they go on like that they'll need music stands on stage soon... o_O

     

    (leviathan is pretty great, too!)

  4. I don't give a fuck though, there are so many insular/puritanical BM wankers out there that I'd gladly state loud and clear that, yes, I find the offshoot/USBM stuff more interesting/diverse than the first-wave Norwegian stuff.

     

    sure why not, i think you mean second wave, tho. ;)

     

    in that case maybe there are people on here who could dig this:

     

     

    relatively new project featuring our drumming person. quite US inspired (weakling and whatnot)...

  5. one of the most fruitful nwobhm reunions of late is deffo the that by mighty SATAN (yup)! on "life sentence" and "atom by atom" the band sounds fresher than ever, a little miracle really.

     

    regardless, to these ears THIS is still their highpoint:

     

     

    most tracks to be later featured on the debut but with a much nicer (because rawer) sound. also ian swift's voice, later serving the delightfully demented AVENGER:

     

  6. Finally got around listening to the 'new' Mayhem album, took me about two years to get in the mood for it. Enjoyed it though, could've been produced a tad more shitty for me to appreciate it more (of course). Ordo Ad Chao still remains a fave, was reminded by it when one of the tracks was played in the pub this weekend.

     

    if you substract nostalgia from de mysteriis ordo ad chao is easily their best (studio-)album imo. dark af.

    on a brighter side: have some ironhawk. no idea how they got around getting bigger.

     

  7. Bit late for thrash train i guess but i was just astounded how well this one aged:

     

    HELLWITCH!"!11

     

     

    Borderline death but to me deffo more thrash in spirit: total demented riff orgy!

     

    Aannd on the other end of the spectrum:

     

    VIRTUE

     

     

    Late NWoBHM / speed metal.

  8. hate forest come straight from hell with flaming guitarriffs, super catchy tracks, beast vocals, some ambience and great bm production, hotdamn

     

    Good choice, also digging some of their other, probably more hipster-compatible project DRUDKH:

     

     

    Vast shit.

     

    And holy fuck that Eld track is freakishly beautiful, i totally lost sight of Enslaved after Frost for some reason (much later a friend of mine showed me Isa and Ruun which i thought were... ok but somewhat forgettable), guess i got some catching up to do!

    "Come on you cunts have some belgian acid"

  9. sick job!

     

    tracks you left open in nagano sound like variations of atla (aka dreamy acid, around 13.14 - the pads are just more in the background) and nyik (sonar/submarine stuff) respectively to me. ironically that set felt the most familiar to me of the new bunch.

     

    also 46:16 of Krems deserves its own name imo ;D

  10. Utrecht is a turning point, the old tracklist takes only about 3/4 of the set, WW to Guitar-part are drastically changed and lead up to completely new ending... but I'll leave it to phudo now ;P

    Still, here the recognizable Krakow-parts:

     

    IE1 00.00 - 01.36

    IE2 01.36 - 03:15

    IE3 03:15 - 05:50

    BGC 05:50 - 10:40

    FS 10:40 - 14:17

    PT 14:17 - 16:41

    EF 16:41 - 17:54

    FB 17:54 - 20:33

    SBc 20:33 - 23.12

    DBT 23:12 - 30:20 (again, long buildup, track start could be considered later)

    OO 30:20 - 33:12

    CS 33:12 - 33:39

    DA 35:05 - 37:06 (again very soft transitions between last two, might well be interpreted as one track)

  11. Brussels overall is still pretty similar so the tracklist mostly works:

     

    IE1 00.00 - 04.08

    IE2 04.08 - 06:48

    IE3 06:48 - 11:30

    BGC 11:30 - 18:11

    FS 18:11 - 23:47

    PT 23:47 - 27:09

    EF 27:09 - 28:59

    FB 28:59 - 31:35

    SBc 31:35 - 35.06

    DBT 35:06 - 42:45

    OO 42:45 - 46:51

    CS 46:51 - 50:18

    DA 50:18 - 53:37

     

    here things change quite considerably. WW and SUB go back and forth here til 01:00:18 then it's guitar track til the end. In the guitar track beats are more prominent and there's this 4xfloor to hip hop transition they'll be keeping.

     

    the most notable thing about this set imo is the section between 09:43 and around 10:16 in the "wet snares" part: there are some noise-"claps" here adding some serious groove which can't be found in any other set (at least not that "in your face")...

  12. ....currently doing a spreadsheet for track times, set differences etc.....give me a few hours :p

     

    Yeah i was planning the same (outlining the evolution of the set with some graphs), but only accomplished to somewhat map out Krakow so far when life came in the way...

    Like you said it's not always easy to mark start/end points of tracks since there are some smooth transitions, anyway here's what i came up with (sorry for my stupid songtitles lol):

     

    00.00 - 02.02 "Intro Electro"

    02.02 - 03.58 "I.E.2: clonky snares"

    03.58 - 08:21 "I.E.3: wet snares"

    08:21 - 13:46 "Broken Grandfather Clocks"

    13:46 - 18:52 "Fart Step"

    18:52 - 22:38 "Power Trance"

    22:38 - 24:04 "Emo Frenchmen"

    24:04 - 27:25 "Funky Bass"

    27:25 - 31:39 "Sleazy Bass (feat. Cowbell)"

    31:39 - 41:14 "Dat BLOC Trailer Track" (long buildup, could be split up i guess)

    41:14 - 47:22 "OOMPH!"

    47:22 - 49:36 "Cosmic Sighs"

    49:36 - 50:25 "Boing Boing"

    50:25 - 54:19 "Dreamy Acid"

    54:19 - 54:56 "Wacky Workbench 2"

    54:56 - 56:22 "Submarine" (could be interpreted as direct continuation of the former)

    56:22 - 57:37 "Campfire Guitar"

    57:37 - End "Outro"

     

    This is pretty much the blueprint for all sets to come, although tracks appear in much more condensed form later to only take about half the set.

  13. Grafenhainichen and Katowice ('specially the latter ~55min) both feature choir sounds towards the end i can't remember from other sets. Anyway every single one is bringing new shit to the table! :music:

  14.  

    Nagano has got a fucking unbelievable abstract acid section towards the end, that I don't think are in any of the previous sets?!?

     

    Edit: Starting at 51:33.

    Isn't that just the last track off Ultrecht?

     

    I mean it's slightly diff the way all the tracks are a bit diff on each set but it's the same track yeah?

     

    still great tho

     

     

    Yeah, track was introduced with Utrecht @ ~53:30.

     

    The tune that started as campfire guitar ending in Krakow and later got 4-to-floor to hip hop beat transition (ending of brussels) is wildly and extensively explored in the Dour Set with some acid on top drifting into considerably more dark territory (~40 minutes onwards)... Very nice!

  15. At this point they might as well drop a couple quaristice and oversteps soundboards amirite?

     

    not to be party pooping, but i wouldn't get my hopes up. they stated in a recent interview that this set was conceived with a release in mind, which obviously wasn't the case in the past... but who knows?

  16. Nagano was just rock solid throughout (in that regard similar to Utrecht, more fleshed out tho) but Grafenhainichen is really going places right now :O (post 50 min mark)...
