can anyone recommend anything good by tormentor? I've heard dissections cover of elisabeth bathori, wasn't overly impressed and I've got recipe ferrum, which is a fucking awful album.

if you don't hate bad sound quality too much, check out "seventh day of doom", which is fucking great: much gloomier and more athmospheric than "anno domini" eg. which is yet awesome, too...

top 5:
tormentor (hun of course)
viking crown
hellhammer
thou art lord
impiety
...

many others come to mind, but too many...

so which are the ones you don't like and why??

[carl]

'I haven't found a single black metal band outside Norway that I like.'

So you picked Khold ( aka Khorn) as the 9th best Black Metal band.
My inference is that this means you prefer them to Marduk, Shining, Aborym, Judas Iscariot,Graveland, Bethlehem, Weltmacht, Negura Bunget,.... :)
You've heard these aliens, right?

[Fisting The Dead]

Uhhh....I like Absu......Eisregen is good occasionally...uhhh....Behemoth....I'm out.

[Murder]

Oh, come on... you've never heard Graveland? Averse Sefira? Krieg?

[requiem]

Graveland
Astriaal
Drudkh
Xasthur
Judas Iscariot

Although these are amazing bands, this is actually more difficult than it looks!

Graveland is one of the most amazing bands I've ever heard in any genre.

[chimera]

Cradle OF Filth (i know they're not 'pure' but i like them)
Venom
Celtic Frost
Judas Iscariot
Ancient Rites

[Fisting The Dead]

No, sorry. :( Well, I have heard some Graveland, but it was absolute shit quality. I'll look in to those other bands, though...but I don't know about you murder, I don't see how you like Abigor so much. They're good, but just not my cup of tea.

oh Mr. Murder,

Abigor is on my list for the #1 worst black metal band ever...;)
here is what they did for recording:
They had a old tape player sitting around(one that could record)
and then they searched their cosmic fantasy land for the worst gear possible. I.E. like a old Fender vintage amp with a 2x15" cab, and a shitty dean guitar that constantly goes out of tune. then.....whammo- Abigor

anyways-
1. Burzum
2. Darkthrone
3. Unlord
4. Dawn
110,000. Abigor

[carl]

Where the fuck is Shingletown? :)

[DARK USURPER]

i can honestly say i have no idea who unlord or dawn are..... and where the fuck is Shingletown???

[carl]

Dawn were ( and may be again) a pretty good BlackDeath outfit from Sweden.
I think Myth was just ragging Murder whom he possibly jams with on occasion.

[myth]

testing....

[myth]

ok-
Yeah, I was just messing with Murder. pissing him off...
really, abigor isn't that bad. They have some good material out there.

I talked with Fredrik from Dawn and he said they were working on new material, and that was back in June. but not to worry, they take their precious fucking time.

oh shit-non scandinavian. Well I'm a awful Jack ass. leave it to me to be a fucking dickhead.
ok:
1. Leviathan-USA
2. Unlord-Holland
3. Summoning(althought they aren't really conventional BM)Austria
4. Woods of Ypres (Canada)
5. Graveland

Shingletown...hahahhah
this is where Jimmie Hick Fuck and Donnie Dick Cheese drive around in a bronco thats beat to hell and shoot road signs with a .22
its pretty black metal...spearfingers;)
