Evil Toe, that's fucking brilliant that link! I never knew the story about this song, but I love the song. It's hilarious to hear the lines spoken in a phone call!

"I'm a evil motherfucker Joe, you know that? I done shot a motherfucker!"

The biggest and best recommendation I can give is 'Embraced'. I like those guys more and more as time passes, crazy good band to be unheard of!

Some BM suggestions:
They vary in styles (sub-genres) of Black Metal (BM)
Deathspell Omega (French but very evil)
Wolves in the Throne Room (US BM)
Nachtmystium (US BM)
Darkthrone (Transylvanian Hunger a classic!)
Glorior Belli
Leviathan (One man attack on humanity)

End-joy!

Nice! Yeah, those guys have become 'The New Wave of American Black Metal". Also others have called them 'Psychedelic Black Metal'. They're new record is killer. Go pick it up!

I'm actually listening to blackmetalradio.com as I read this thread.

Enslaved
Emperor
Dimmu Borgir
Old Man's Child (although their newer stuff seems to be more Death metalish)
Satyricon (traditional BM)
Immortal
Cradle of filth
Dark Throne
Naglfar
Dark Fortress Especially their Stab Wounds
Carpathian Forest


too many to name.

At the Gates isn't black, definitive Gothenburg.
(by the way, slaughter of the soul is the best death metal record ever )

[Endrik]

don't see much real black metal here... same bands all over again... if a band is mentioned more than once than they are not real black metal

yea i dont get that. i moved from esp to jackson. and the only reason i had an esp was they where dirt cheep. lol
nice list by the way. i was a big old mans child fan back in the day.

Mostly any more if i listen to BM, i listen to the ones that came first and showed promise and talent beyond the "black metal" label.

Satyricon - one of my favorite bands,...ever - Still Alive and Killing
Emperor - Rip
Immortal - Rip
Dissection - Rip
Old Mans Child - listen to them a lot still, i don't think i ever considered them BM tho
Malignant Eternal - Far beyond the Sun, frikin awesome album
Gorgoroth
ect..

these bands i was listening to when all they had out were demos, cept - omc, dissection, and i know theres a ton of other bands that i haven't mentioned, but these are the ones i still listen to mostly.
Most of the stuff i have/had, it's all on cassette tapes so (RIP)

[ke3freak]

haha. awsome! yea most of my BM collection is vinyl.

[emperor_black]

Here's an interesting fact for all you black metallers...Emperor's 'Into the Nightside Eclipse', which many consider one of the best atmospheric black metal albums ever recorded, was recorded entirely on a Peavey bandit 1x12 combo.

[Rsmacker]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, there is only one true Black Metal band, the band that invented it:

VENOM!!!!!!

What you should remember about Black Metal (the other stuff, not TRUE Black Metal, as played by Venom):

Anyone else who wears Kiss make-up = GAY
Anyone who has keyboards = GAY
Anyone who has a logo you can't fucking read = GAY
Anyone who sounds like they are gargling cum = GAY
Anyone who has a made-up name consisting of random letters thrown together that may, or may not, when pronounced, sound like someone pulling a 24" Anal Intruder out of their dirtbox. Sideways. That = GAY.
Anyone who tortures hamsters and brands a cross on his forehead = GAY
Anyone who used to spend 6 months of the year in the dark bumming their family whilst getting pissed on home-made vodka, before discovering church burning = GAY
Anyone who has sold less then 5,000 records = GAY. That's RECORDS, not tapes, nor CDs burned at home. I mean, they spent money having pressings done in advance, not waited until some post dribbled through to their PO Box (with a scary name like "The Jaws of Hell, 'Death to the Nazarene' Youth Club Hall, Crucifixion St, Brighton) before rattling one off on their computer (oo-er). = GAY
Anyone who has posed for photos in a deserted wood in winter = GAY
Anyone who just likes BM because it upsets their parents = Repressed GAY.




Erm, do Possessed count? Bathory?
