| _________________________________________ [Jan 27,2015 11:35am - Guy Swallower ""] at least they were courteous enough to name their album something that lets people know ahead of time that it's for faggots |

| __________________________________ [Jan 27,2015 12:41pm - Simian ""] Great band, looking forward to their sophomore release. One of the best metal bands out there right now, and definitely the best and most exciting black metal out of New England. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 27,2015 1:50pm - Veritas ""] I generally rank derivative trend hopping hipster black metal as best and most exciting as well. I cannot wait to sodomize myself with whatever is close at hand when I first spin the new disc |

| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 10:02am - Fenriz ""] There's a couple exceptions. None in New England. In most of U.S. and the world you've got hipster bullshit that gets all the attention. Like Leviathan, Deathspell Omega, Blut Aus Nord, and Inquisition. All the trendy pussies get wet over that garbage. Inquisition is the most trendy hipster bullshit I've ever heard and 99% of the people who post here jerk off to that faggot shit every night. |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 10:16am - the truth ""] Leviathan, Inquisition and DSO are pretty much no-care mediocrity. BAN have been around for decades. The crowd who likes them these days might be full of hipsters, but having hipster fans does not make a band hipster. Noone can control who buys their bands albums. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 10:21am - Basic Logic ""] 1. Ok so this is not the 1990's 2. We are not in Norway or Sweden 3. Music evolves 4. Music tastes are subjective Move along people nothing groundbreaking in this discussion of tired thoughts and views. |

The crowd who likes them these days might be full of hipsters, but having hipster fans does not make a band hipster. Noone can control who buys their bands albums. You've obviously never heard their records. They were mediocre in the 90's, and they only get worse as they jump on the latest trends. Poser shit through and through, total faggotry. They might as well be Wolves In The Throne Room at this point. I suppose next you're going to defend Enslaved for their recent trend hopping bullshit as well? This place is fucking weak, and the knowledge of black metal is pitiful here. |

I'd rather be an asshole than a hipster trend hopping faggot like you pussies who post about black metal here. Elitism is what keeps the genre pure. If there was more elitism in black metal there wouldn't be all these hipster bands popping up. True fans would denounce and not support them. Sadly that isn't the case because true fans are a dying breed. |

All the trendy pussies get wet over that garbage. Inquisition is the most trendy hipster bullshit I've ever heard and 99% of the people who post here jerk off to that faggot shit every night. I doubt before Inquisition got popular that you would have said that. I'm not a huge fan personally but some of their music is alright. In the 90s, you wouldn't have called them trendy hipster music. I agree that they need more elitism in black metal to avoid hipster sounding bands but the bands you mentioned aren't really hipster bands and don't include hipsters in those bands. You should have named bands like WITTR, Deafheaven, etc. etc |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:27pm - Grim Kim Riley ""] many hipsters listen to Darkthrone and your name is Fenriz would be a good example. Darkthrone's members aren't hipsters but they have hipsters listen to them. Your point seems pretty invalid. |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:28pm - Grim Kim Riley ""] Bands like Vattnet Viskar, WITTR, Deafheaven, Sanhet, shit like that is the stuff people hate. That post sounding rip off garbage with massive delay. Don't include good hardworking bands like DSO, BAN and even Leviathan for that matter in that lineup. |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:42pm - pissingblazers ""] black metal died 20 years ago. move on. |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:47pm - Grim Kim Riley ""] nah black metal in our hearts! |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:47pm - Fenriz ""] Bands like Vattnet Viskar, Wolves In The Throne Room, Deafhaven and Sanhet are obvious. They have little do with black metal and are basically playing indie rock. I don't care if a band works hard or how long they have been around. When they dilute down their sound the way Deathspell Omega, Enslaved and Blut Aus Nord have, they're symptomatic of the problem. It's because they start incorporating that indie rock post bullshit that these other bands even exist. Every one of the bands I listed has done that crap and you give them a pass because you can't face the sad fact that you listen to hipster trend jumping pussy bullshit. Say what you want about Darkthrone changing their sound. At least they still play metal and haven't done any of that indie rock poser shit. And Leviathan is the biggest pile of shit that ever passed for black metal. Total faggot music written by a poser hipster for other poser hipsters. Xasthur is even worse. |

| __________________________________________ [Jan 29,2015 12:51pm - Grim Kim Riley ""] because they expanded upon a sound, that makes them indie rock? It sounds nothing of indi rock |
