This is a club for either black metalheads, or really black/doomy death metalheads. To distance this club from the metal hell, the metal hell is turning into more of a middle of the road club, meant for listeners of more accessible metal. This is for metalheads who want to talk about black metal and really cult death/doom/whatever metal.

Rules:

1. No spamming
2. Try to keep conversation on topic, i.e. talking about Goregrind or thrash is looked down upon
3. No harrassment. If you don't like black metal, don't post here. Simple as that.

How to join: Post the fav. black metal bands you listen to (there are a few acceptable bands of other genres, but we know who they are) and simply ask to join. It's that simple. I won't stop you (though i will discourage you if I think you're not fit to join, I won't stop you; if you can post on topic, who cares?)

To start, I'll post my fav. black metal (some black metal-ish) bands.

Mayhem
Borknagar
Emperor
Shores of Sheol
Kali Yuga
Setherial
Heidenreich
1349
Immortal
Enslaved
Bathory
Summoning
Dissection.

RULES FOR NEW PEOPLE: Lurk before you post here. Don't just come in here assuming you know everything. Be open, and see how people post before you post too much. And, have a great time posting here!

Sweet, new members already. Heidenreich are kinda symphonic, if you're into those types. I was considering putting Ulver there, but I like them more for their later stuff. If you're into epic black metal, check out Summoning.

Welcome in, GC, and I did hear your album. I love how your sound is evolving, your guitarwork is wonderful and your vocals are getting more and more professional. Do you have bass in your songs?

LMAO I didn't say ALL The bands. I said your favorites. Anywho, have fun in this club. I forgot to list a band in my favs, tho: Clandestine Blaze. Can't believe I forgot them. Plus Nargaroth and Burzum. Forgot those.

As Ghoul already mentioned, it's mostly introductory metal in there. A lot of the discussion in there isn't really suited to people with more extreme tastes anymore.

My favorites:

Anaal Nathrakh
Anatolian Wisdom
old Behemoth
Burzum
Dissection
Naglfar
Nazgul (Italy)
Operation Winter Mist
Sad Legend

I highly suggest looking into Operation Winter Mist. Fucking awesome Black War Metal out of Calgary. Blood On Ice is my favorite song by them.

Great, I'll check em out. You're in.

And Will, this club IS needed. The metal genre is too large for discussion of ALL metal, since most metalheads' interests don't overlap at all. Now don't post here again, unless you're gonna make productive posts, or I'll get Gooch to ban your ass.

GC ok'ed my idea. Stfu and gtfo.

And Utz, you're in, but I would discourage it. If you're into death metal, but want that bleak as fuck doom/death atmosphere, I'd suggest you check out Deteriorot.

Thank you a lot :)

I do not use a real bass, but a synthesized bass line to enhance the low-end of the guitars.

btw, has anyone of you heard Samael's "Ceremony of the Opposites"? Their first experimental album, before they turned into electronica (which I don't like)

no this club is not NEEDED. its a stupid idea. you can easily discuss it all in one topic. no need for a topic for every genre. next thing you know there will be the "death metal crew" or the "power metal club".

oh and get gooch to 'ban my ass' lmao.

Pretty much. The only reason I formed the Nu-Metal/Metalcore club is because the discussion of those two genres is actively discouraged in Metal Hell.

You and ondskapelson are in. You know the admittance policy of this club: Post your bands and you're in. No requirements, really.

And to Jarry and Will, though discussion of this type of metal isn't frowned upon in the 'hell, it just isn't practiced. Nobody talks about bm in that club, so I formed a new club for the bm lovers, since it's such a broad genre. And yes, Will, I have gooch on MSN. PLease gtfo of my club unless you are gonna be a productive poster.

No, I'm not really into Samael, though I heard Xy has done work on Rotting Christ's A Dead poem.

Thanks for the offer, but no, since I finally found out how the mix the synth bass with the rest and I'm satisfied :)

He did, yeah. "A Dead Poem" is my least favourite RC release, though.

Ahhh, I'm not asking for your list overall, just your favorite bands list.

Anywho, I got m' cymbal pad back from Roland. More recording to ensue. Plus, I might get another cymbal pad. Wanna keep things interesting.

2 things: Anybody have any news on Ulver's string remake of Nattens Madrigal? And does anybody have any news concerning Nargaroth's Semper Fi, which has been delayed for a while?

www.anus.com/about/Black_Metal I think that's the link, the dude reviews it there. It doesn't look like a good review. :( I liked Enslaved from Vikingligr Veldi to Mardraum.
