Honestly I've only fully listened to a few Slayer albums, not bad but I don't really find myself returning to them. Just can't be bothered to listen to the others extensively. I imagine that's a big sin but I just don't care enough. Which isn't to say I don't enjoy a few songs from those bands but I suppose I'm just too set in my ways.
The real big four are Enslaved, Grave, Entombed, and Dismember.
Sweden's got TONS of death metal and other alternatives but personally I have enjoyed Opeth before they went full 70's prog metal band.
Wait, Enslaved are a Norwegian black metal band
Despite giving my rankings of the Big Four, I really don't listen to that much thrash. I prefer speed or 1st wave black metal if I want the fast riffs.
Watched the Argho set, it was great. They even introduced Hyenas of the Aurunci with a tribute to Iryna Zarutska, and the crowd chanted her name.
Raging faggotry. MA is such a joke. As far as Blackbraid, I really don't understand the hype. Well, I do-the "indigenous" gimmick and all that. But musically? Sterile and soulless. No atmosphere. Black metal for people who don't like black metal. And wasn't Jon Krieger booted from a festival for being a drunken jackass and cried racism?
He's not even Indian. He's a Mexican that was adopted by two white teachers as a toddler.
So most black metal post 2nd wave?
Power Metal for girls is just regular power metal, and I'm saying this as a major power metal fan.
Black Braid isn’t even anything thematically revolutionary. Xibalba Itzaes has been doing the indigenous nationalism thing since goddamn ‘93 and actual good bands make posers mad like Volahn playing a show with Paul Waggener or Kūka'ilimoku telling white cucks to fuck off. Black metal is inherently racist.
I don't know anything about this situation, so please tell me I understand this correctly: Riggins calls concerts attendants "cowards" because they don't want the event assaulted by Antifa?
Pretty much, this guy does not know what he is talking about. The location for the event did not change for 4-5+ months. Plus the security was 7 local cops, who were very chill for the entire festival. I find it funny they are painting Metal Threat as some White power festival, but was not even close. The only bands you could argue as being racist was GBK, Arghoslent, Crucifier? and Graveland?. Everyone else was just fuck you black metal/death metal. The band Engorge came out with this shirt, I love it. Plus, Every creed of people was there (white, black, brown, yellow) and everyone had a good time, no violence, everyone got along.
