most of the time, that is the best kind of metal

before the rules of metal were written, such as

PENTAGRAM (the recent First Daze Here I & II compilations of cleaned up 70's recording that were in very rough shape, not the newer stuff)

BEDEMON


or for metal that breaks all the rules,

In seventies Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep and Black Sabbath were called metal. I like quite a lot also Ac/Dc and Nazareth seventies production, but I think they were called already then Hard rock. I think some critic called the sixties band Vanilla Fudge first heavy metal band and I think it´s not totally wrong, there is quite heavy stuff in their Near the beginning album (at least Shotgun and Break song is). I think in music to put the band in categories is always difficult. And I think the bands fit very well on some category are mostly boring.

Anyone else think Ill Innocence is one of the best black metal albums of all time?
You just don't hear tracks like Blind My Eyes, or Delirium Daydream on any other BM album.

 

[Dead-Air]

Off the top of my head:

Sabbath - Master of Reality
Led Zeppelin I
1st two Maiden albums with Paul Dianno on vocals
Judas Priest - Unleashed in the East
Metallica through Garage Days Re-revisited
All Sunn O)))
All Melvins
Motorhead up to Orgasmatron
"Fast as a Shark" by Accept
a little Slayer every now and again
Pat Fucking Boone
Go Girl Crazy by the Dictators

must admit, I don't keep up much these days with the genre, though I often like Black Metal stuff when I hear it. I end up just watching a few Gorgoroth videos on you tube and calling it a night though.

Stay tuned for more information on Gallhammer and The End.

April 25th!?!?!!! YES!!!!

^ Read the article more closely. Wondered what the fuck happened to Mika Penetrator.

Found this: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/bla...sitemID=145644

GALLHAMMER Parts Ways With Guitarist, Prepares To Enter Studio - Sep. 7, 2010 Guitarist/vocalist Mika Penetrator has left GALLHAMMER — the Japanese extreme metal group that draws on black metal, doom metal, and crust punk — to concentrate on her other band. The remaining members of GALLHAMMER — Vivian Slaughter (vocals, bass) and Risa Reaper (drums, vocals) — plan to continue the band as a duo.

GALLHAMMER is currently working on material for the follow-up to 2007's "Ill Innocence" and will enter the studio in October to record what Slaughter describes as a collection of "strange and psychedelic experimental sounds of doom."

You can now follow GALLHAMMER at the band's new Twitter page which will be constantly updated with news and progress reports.

Although GALLHAMMER had been known primarily as a black metal/punk act, "Ill Innocence" is impressively diverse, showing their implementation of many influences and moods from both metal and non-metal genres. The themes are based around isolation, oppression, a world without colour, with Vivian describing the imagery like "Delirium - as being in a midday nightmare under the scorching sunshine"; all wrapped in a poetic disparity. "Ill Innocence" also features recordings of the tracks "Speed of Blood" and "At the Onset of the Age of Despair" as previewed in demo form on "The Dawn of…" The CD release of the album was met with great critical acclaim, particularly in the U.K., with the band even given the honor of cover stars in Zero Tolerance, Terrorizer and Organ magazines.

GALLHAMMER's DVD release, "Ruin of a Church", captured the band live and in scintillating form at Colchester Arts Centre, a stunning venue on the site of a deconsecrated church, on their 2007 European tour. The DVD includes additional footage from the tour, plus promo videos, gallery, and an intriguing video interview with the band. The audio mix and production was executed by Justin Broadrick (NAPALM DEATH, GODFLESH, JESU).

Pretty upsetting that they're just a drum n' bass group now. Mika provided excellent vocals live. Fuck. Hopefully their new material holds up.

[vulva]

also the album's been delayed to may =(

[Dr. Eugene Felikson]

Damn! Well hopefully it's for the better.

[Dr. Eugene Felikson]

These days I prefer a much cleaner, elaborate production. Prog or post metal sync heavenly with a thick mug of dark roast coffee, a scented candle from TJ Maxx, and some hot wings. I'm currently exploring sub-sub-genres like Atmosludge and Doomgaze, but overall my preference in metal is...

Deftones, Gojira, Isis, Mastodon, Animals as Leaders, Tool, Rolo Tomassi, Opeth, Jesu, Baroness, Deafheaven, Palms, Agalloch, Pelican, Skeletonwitch, Kayo Dot, Alcest, Pallbearer, Kylesa, Revocation, Lamb of God, Bosse-de-Nage, Sumac, Myrkur, Neurosis, Converge, Dark Funeral...

Y'know, mostly "hipster shit".
