ENTHRONED - The Ultimate Horde Fights (1997) Towards The Skullthrone Of Satan album
Metallian,thanks alot man I'm glad I was of help to spark your interest in the realm of black metal,and its cool to be able to discuss black metal with somebody here your the only one that is here on a regular basis that understands black metal,and its refreshing to see that so I thank you! "Some" black metal is garbage as you know but there is alot of it that is pure magic thanks to Cronos!
I first got into black metal in 1983 listening to Venom,Mercyful Fate,Hellhammer,Bathory,Celtic Frost and Slayer's first album Show No Mercy and Possessed "Seven Churches album as these were black metal bands as you know back then,I discovered norwegian black metal in 1993 when I heard about the death of Euronymous and in 95' I ordered Darkthrone and Emperor from a metal edge magazine and was gambling on if it were any good,the rest is history.
And I still love the genre now but as you know it is swapped with unworthy bands but still some great ones shine through it all. Thanks again Metallian,also I'd like to PM you soon to get an update of your collection...there are some bands that you know about that I'd like your opinion about for myself so I can check them out too....you rock Metallian!
That's good stuff!
Like u said,"I guess one man's garbage is another man's treasure."
That is so true!
People tell me it is garbage too,but,i guess they cannot see the beauty in it all!
But,everyone got different tastes!
People get mad at me cause i love winter over summer!
Its funny,they treat me like i got something wrong with me!LOL!
Oh well!
I love this stuff more than traditional metal now!
Last summer i was looking for something cause i was tired of the same ol metal,u know what i mean!
And i remembered ur postsfrom a few years back about black metal,so,i bought 2 Immortal cd's one sunday in august!
Well,that was that,then it all started!
I love the rawness and the true to form kinda of music!
It seems they just get a riff and jam it and follow it!
Not forced like most bands do,to try and write a catchy tune!
I haven't listened to traditional metal since,it bores me believe it or not!
I guess,25 + years of the same ol same ol this came along and was very refreshing!
I find it very exciting discovering new bands all the time,kinda feels like in 83-84 (for me anyways)when metal exploded on the scene!
Metal will never die as long as people can be openminded and give some other bands a chance and move outside their comfort zone!
Rock Hard Ride Free!
P.S. I came back after a few years from here cause i once i got into this stuff i really wanted to let u know it was because of u!
Like i said i remembered your posts from a few years back!
Thanks!

Graveland - Immortal Pride album(1998)
Hey Metallian,this album is my favorite from Darken,its more viking metal than black metal but I can't tell you enough what this great record means to me and my collection,its epic,inspireing.....and also shows myself "why don't I like Nostradamus if I like this"?? lol! I can't answer that if I tried,Immortal Pride is just an album that is so good I'm unable to grasp at how great it is to me personally while others dismiss it as garbage. I guess one man's garbage is another man's treasure.
