Candiru Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Ghost isn’t a bad band or anything but I’m not sure why they are considered metal. They’re basically The Shins but with lyrics about Satan. What really puzzles me is their inclusion on metalarchives but not Kvelertak or Full of Hell who are both easily 1000x more metal in every way.

usagi Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Full of Hell are metal as fuck. Kvelertak are more trad rock and roll dressed up as metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candiru Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Full of Hell are metal as fuck. Kvelertak are more trad rock and roll dressed up as metal. Only Kvelertak’s third album is slightly less than metal. I would recommend the absolute shit out of the first two Kvelertak albums even if you didn’t like the third one.

usagi Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I've only heard the first it was fun but not what I look for in metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candiru Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Weird. But my main point is that if Kvelertak isn't metal, then tons of bands aren't metal, (but clearly are). Black Sabbath might as well not be metal if it's put that way, but blues rock dressed up and masquerading as metal. There are so many meaningless distinctions and then they have the fucking nerve to call Ghost metal. It's annoying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sagan Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Yeah, that is pretty weird Candiru. Speaking of Kvelertak the lead singer left the band and they have already found the replacement. I really hope this band doesn't start singing all their songs in english in an effort to increase their crossover appeal. That would fucking suck.

ghOsty Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Really digging the new Daughters single, although probably the least metal sounding thing they've put out it's damn good: it's got me hyped on a lot of their older stuff again: Also been blasting the newest Jungle Rot lately: and looking forward to the upcoming Revocation: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) That is a very cool track. It didn't do anything that I expected it to do. No metal cliches to be found whatsoever, but still definitely metal. I'm 'll have to check out more of their stuff.

KovalainenFanBoy Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 this one's not proper metal but pretty good still. Dunno if it's even metal enough to be posted in this thread tbh, but if Ghost is considered metal we might as well post the Pixies here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olo Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) John Zorn's O.G.. He's valid in whatever music thread. Listen to some Painkiller. Very much metal. Edited August 3, 2018 by olo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Inferno one is from a new group he assembled a few years ago called Simulacrum, the 2 albums I've heard from them so far are great re Painkiller: I'm listening to misc. Zorn stuff in an attempt to stop rinsing the Painkiller albums Edited August 3, 2018 by span Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olo Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Buried Secrets & Execution Ground got me strange looks being blasted out of my car in the early-mid nineties. I loved Bill Laswell's dub bass so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 man, why did nobody tell me that Enslaved were like a black metal Isis? almost makes me want to try making post-metal again, actually reminds me of one of my old songs lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candiru Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Yeah, that is pretty weird Candiru. Speaking of Kvelertak the lead singer left the band and they have already found the replacement. I really hope this band doesn't start singing all their songs in english in an effort to increase their crossover appeal. That would fucking suck. They replaced him with another Norwegian dude who did some backup vocals on their first album so hopefully it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
