I LOVE EXTREME BLACK METAL! IT'S THE BEST KIND!!! =) |
|
I clicked link, saw pic, lol'd, then made this face
|
|
he should do a sludge metal project instead with thurston moore |
|
The lack of Satan in Black Metal these days is astonishing. |
|
I laud the lack of Satan. Shit's silly as fuck. |
|
How about the overabundance of black metal bands that sing about Satan but don't practice any form of Satanism or dabble with the occult?
My take on lyrical content or image: practice what you preach or GTFO. |
|
Their first ever show will be at Winter is Coming. |
|
this kid Spence is going places. |
|
and if a band does not preach...practice anyway |
|
it's okay to not practice what you preach but whatever you do DON'T BREAK THE OATH |
|
What the fuck is a heafy? |
|
Only still having his personal phone number is real. Who wants to prank him?? |

pfft
No Satan, no kvlt.
Know Satan, know kvlt.
Also, I love how he came up with a really creative name like "Mrityu" instead of just half-assed jumbling his dayjob band's name. OH, WAIT |
|
IMO - anyone who worships satan is just as much of a fucking idiot as those who worship christ/god. |
|
Satan is a faggot. God is a faggot. Magic doesn't exist. Believing it exists is asinine and destructive to the advancement of our species. |
|
Yeah. Christians created Satan, noobs.
See you on the Enterprise, burnsy. |
|
Black Metal = Satan. Metal is a work. Don't break kayfabe. |
|
Such charmingly simplistic understandings of occultings ITT. |
|
|
I Want to Kill Everyone, Satan is Good, Satan is Our Pal ITT. |
|
|
Am I the only one who honestly can't imagine this douchebag listening to bands like Emperor, Darkthrone, etc. like he says?
Hell I can't even imagine him listening to anything more extreme than Children of Bodom and the last At The Gates album - let alone black metal. |
|
I love a Lime Emperor on a hot summer day. |
|
|
|
"Kill your mother rape your dog" music ITT. |

Lime Emperor made me lol. You should have left it. |

I like a Burzum Rickey now and again. |

I don't see anyone ITT being active in occult practices. |

Occult practices: usually practiced openly |

Also, I will upload his business card image from 2001. Assuming his cellphone number is the same. Could be a long shot but it's at least worth a shot. Ima Alude this bitch cuz DYA is cell phone police nazi. |

Oh yea? Says who? I did all of mine in the privacy of my own home or outside by myself. I don't do that shit anymore. The last time I did was with Chris 2 years ago.
I'm not a Satanist, nor are you. I do have my own set of beliefs now, but nothing to do with any Abrahamic nonsense or self-worship. Those who never dabbled in the occult and talk down on it.... Never dabbled in the occult. Start dabbling faggts. |

The joke: You very nearly got it. |
|
Yeah cause all death metal bands should actually disembowel people. heh |
|
I'm in no joking mood. This is some bad news for black metal and only reaffirms my hatred for the sad, sad genre it has become. |
|
Go to Hockomock to believe, you won't. |
|
|

Well, yea. Death metal among others, are excluded. My notion goes towards black metal only. I don't see an appeal in a band that professes their love for Satan on stage, then goes home and does nothing about it. Sorry.. That's like a Priest preaching about God's love for all people and then going home and raping kids, ruining their lives. ONE IN THE SAME. |
|
With the aril logic, you must also dabble in christianity to talk shit about it. Reading history tells me all i need to know. |
|
Yah. Black metal was doing okay before this thread. |
|
Which is why
TWIGS AND BERRIES METAL > "BLACK METAL" |
|
1) what is "occult?"
2) u mad about trivium bro?
3) seriously we should discuss these issues in person. come to my office. |
|
|

Why, do you want me to start posting anti-semitic comments? I never dabbled in Judaism and can easily talk shit about it. |
|
ITT: Aril joins Inverticrux. |
|
personally i'm pretty damn upset that matt heafy might put trivium to the wayside to start this new black metal project. they were really on the way to becoming the next metallica and guns & roses combined. |
|
So you just refuted your original point that you must dabble in order to form an opinion on it. K |
|
1) what is "occult?"- There is no need to ask that question when you already know the answer.
2) u mad about trivium bro? -Yes, Matt Heafy is a fag and always has been.
3) seriously we should discuss these issues in person. come to my office. -No, thanks. I don't openly talk about my beliefs. |
|
Don't sing "Come to my window" unless you MEAN IT, bro. |
|
Alx and Burnsy have a point, you are contradicting yourself by saying you need to dabble in something to talk shit about it. |
|
No, now you're putting words in my mouth. You can have all the opinions you want on it. All I recommend is expanding your fucking horizons, you Zionist. |
|
Start Dabbling.
If you dabble you can double dabble and doodle your diddle. |

^ yea. Like I said, you can have opinions on it. Nothing is stopping you from experimenting other than yourself. If a band sings about Satan and doesn't practice what they preach, then said band is POSING. Not that hard to grasp you jewbags. |
|
I didn't say anything about dabbling. I just think religious beliefs of any kind are detrimental to humanity. And Satanism is fucking dumb, especially lavey. Fuck that noise. Black metal for me is just fine without Satan, as long as it's seething with hate. |
|
Gtfo in the time machine you rode in on! |
|
Lol.sorry about throwing jewish stuff in there. I <3 the fact that you are all jewish now. I need to dabble. |
|
Fucking timelords, you people make me sick. |
|
Still waiting on that phone number bro.... |
|

Burnsy just said he doesn't care much for satanic stuff. |
|
Also has anyone else not even clicked the link in the op? I just wanna call this guy and accuse him of fucking my wife. |
|

so i should dabble in pre-renaissance alchemy or wicca? not sure if serious...
13 years after the "death of a genre" and the only unifying quality it has, or even has ever had, was the sound and execution. certainly not lyrical themes like paganism, satanism, conservatism..bands existed that didn't touch any of that.
come on dude, we can talk about occvlt, or how you care what some douche from a band does, you show me mine, i'll show you yours. we could talk about the prescient, ecological, religious, and sociological philosophies explored in dune, but you haven't read it yet. |
|
|

Do a De Niro from Raging Bull
"You fuck my wife?" "did you or did you not fuck my wife?" |
|
Dabble in those all you want, you are your own person and form your own beliefs.
And yes, music is MUSIC. But tell that to bands that prance around spreading the word of a belief they don't follow. I myself prefer Escapism and fantasy and human emotion as lyrical content.
No care about Dune. I don't read sci-fi anymore like I used to. I read more non-fiction. |

I agree there are far too many bands that talk about and preach Satanic and occult practices when they don't even know anything about them. |
|
Cher, no one called me out for being a poser faggot. At least not in this thread. It's not that I'm not that into satanic stuff, I think it's laughable and obnoxious. |
|
OP has blatantly attempted to aril all of us and failed. Where's aril_the_white? |
|
|

I know I wasn't referring about you specifically, aril mentioned bands that do that but I don't think anyone ever mentioned anything about it. |
|
LOL at everything and everyone except Alx Casket because he never wrong. |
|
Cherbag, the statement was made because it's blatantly obvious when bands do it. And there are A LOT. |
|
Also THERES ONLY SO MUXCH YOU CAN TYPE ON A PHONE. YOU COMPUTER USERS HAVE AN ADVANTAGE |
|
Could you write down who these cool bands are? All I ever see around here are twigs and berries. |
|
|
Cherbag, the statement was made because it's blatantly obvious when bands do it. And there are A LOT. |
Agreed. Flashin them satans like they know. |
|
Youre thinking locally? Hahaha, good luck. I'm not opening that can of worms. |
|
Basement shows in Allston get really grim sometimes. |
|
he prefers fantasy and escapism but reads non-fiction, doesn't like sf anymore so chooses to miss out on one of the greatest works of modern literature. calls bands posers that don't "practice what they preach" whatever that means. king diamond would be furious. if it's a veiled comment about local bwack metal, my lyrics were about historical themes and man's fate, so i'll be sure to practice that. cares deeply about the fate of his black metals as if it's his own. tells me i can practice any sort of occult potpourri i choose!!!! thanks pal!! doesn't want to talk about beliefs or spirituality in person =[ is an anti-semite but is clearly in league with NATO's zionist agenda.
especially with the comment about "if i had to ask, i didn't know the answer." i just got so incredibly aril'd. god dammit james. god damn you. |

Yea, I dont enjoy reading like I used to. Wanna fight about it? Hahahaha@ calling Dune one of the greatest works of modern lit. Herbert is LOLing. It was always on my list to read but I chose other series instead. I will get around to reading it eventually. no care, otherwise.
There is no way around it. if a band sings about a Christian Satan and not the Satan within, they are posing. The logic is not that hard to follow. Not once was it mentioned as a shot at local bands. But if you took it personally with Darkwor, be my guest. I know what your Barkwor lyrics are. You've said it many times before.
Caring about black metal is something that's not new. The funny thing is, I don't care about it like I used to, because it continually spirals downward. But yes, there are still gems being released.
If you really want to talk about my beliefs or anything else IRL, BE MY GUEST. You are pefectly capable of googling the word "occult" -as is any of us- if you are really that clueless (which I know you're not).
You also know my stance on ZOG. Love jews, hate Zionosts.
The real question here is why am I laughing at you, getting aril'd? a simple way to cause discussion is to ruffle feathers, beat an idea into someone's head, then have them talk about their stance. Works every time. Alex knows circular logic when he sees it. Think of the political spectrum: the more you go left, the more right you become, and vice versa. Same thing with discussion, and many other things in life. In order to move forward, things must go backwards.
Why do I care about Matt Heafy's project? Because it will make better bands who see through bullshit, ultimately making this kid a fool and eat his own hat. |

If these really aren't troll posts, the lack of basic understanding of the occult here is actually kind of surprising...
Not believing in magick is like not believing in math. I guess you can deny it exists but you're still probably using it everyday.
|
|
you know we're just razzing each other. i disagree with some of your perspectives on music and you know that. nothing personal about barkwor at all. i remember thorn asking me about the atreus myth in one of our songs, 2am and drunk, wasn't in the state of mind to recite it back, i just said i'll get back to you when i'm at the library. that's the other thing, we're both sarcastic bastards too. |

I'm still at practice but i took asecond to come here and see exactly what i expected: aril posting tl;dr and quoting me out of context. Biggest troll in the multiverse, biggest bully on rttp, and a charlatan who dances like a j/k oompa loompa when you call him on his bullshit. |

Every once in a while one of these threads come along where people ruffle feathers and strike up good points. What's wrong? No body likes reading this shit? Board sucks guys, let's get real. I'mma keep on aril'ing all you queerbags, no care. |
|
Alex can call me out all he wants. He's probably right, it doesn't matter. I'm done arguing/fake arguing with him. This 2012 year is important.. pressing matters are needed in 2439AD and the machine is going to leave soon.
Morals of this thread: Heafy Sux
Occult and Satan: Bands either sing about it or don't.
Heafy's number: not a good number anymore
bullshit arguments with circular logic: rttps discussion fodder. |

Still waiting on good points to arise from the aril method of discussion.
Moral of this thread: Spence makes better threads than aril. |

Sometimes Satanic and occult imagery in art is just cool to look at or talk about and people want to use it because it's cool |

Whoops Carine Roitfeld does not literally worship Satan, let's throw away Sacrément Inspirée |

I mwt him at NEMF in 2001. He flew up from Florida and handed out bisiness cards for his new band. |
|
thank you all for reminding me why I feel so reverently about the old ways. listen to Bathory and lament what a person like Quorthon believed in. thankfully he is dead and doesn't have to witness this tomfoolery. |
|
|

I have no idea what this is but I understand your point. Satanic imagery can most definitely be cool to look at. When it comes to bands though, doing something to look cool or be seen as cool is not something I respect. My personal opinions about the nature of existance aside, I feel like a band that has lyrics about satanism and believes in the philosophy has much more artistic integrity than a band that sings about satanic themes to be edgy or cool. The only exception I can think of is if the band is using satanic themes satirically. |
|
|

THIS.
SO COLD! |

I myself prefer Escapism and fantasy and human emotion as lyrical content.

Fantasy as lyrical content is non-hipster.
Human emotion as lyrical content is hipster.

Say what you like about the tenets of Aril, Dude, at least it's an ethos. |

How about a better example? Lars von Trier is not a Satanist nor is he a Christian, but I wouldn't write off the merits or integrity of Antichrist because of that. Roman Polanski is not a Satanist nor is he a Christian, yet Rosemary's Baby still holds up.
I guess "looks cool" was oversimplifying it but you can definitely explore those themes with plenty of integrity even if you don't personally subscribe to those beliefs. |
|
Why is a thread about a guy from TRIVIUM so fucking long? is there really nothing better to talk about people?
|
|
|
is there really nothing better to talk about people?
|
yes. |
|
I can't speak intelligently about any of these examples you're throwing out there haha. And I respect your opinion so I'm not just gonna talk out of my ass. You can speak intelligently on a topic without believing in it obviously. The way this topic got brought up is how bands that use occult/satanic themes use them to seem dark, evil and edgy. Is the position you've taken indicative of you supporting this behavior from musicians? I find it hard to believe you do. Maybe as a musician, I take the medium too seriously. |
|
Themes in literature and movies are not the same when metal bands profess their love for Satan and don't follow through, IMO. If that is the case, Dante would be the ultimate Satanist.
Different outputs, different audiences, different eras, different everything. No one is stating bands can't do it. It's just silly.
All valid points, but not comparable.
|
|
|

No one's talking about Trivium, man. Thread took a tangent for the better in my opinion. Good discussion is good. |

Yeah, I'm no musician, so there's absolutely a disconnect. (You should definitely watch Rosemary's Baby, though, it's awesome.) Was going to use Alice Cooper as an example but he's a bad one since his lyrical content is less "hail Satan!" and more "beware of Satan, he's a total jagoff"
To some people, myself included, Satanism in metal is a lot like hedonism in glam rock. It's part of the show and part of the aesthetic and a big part of the performance ~experience~ but we all know that the musicians still go home to their relatively normal lives and probably aren't sacrificing goats in the backyard or having gigantic pansexual glitter orgies every night. I definitely think that actual practicing pagans or Satanists will have more depth to add to the conversation and should be considered and heard when others are using their symbolism. Outsiders co-opting symbolism and rituals from other faiths and cultures is cultural appropriation, after all... |
|
beliefs warp with perspective. to believe is not to know. using occult themes in art as a vehicle for people to explore, sense, challenge their perspective is absolutely valuable. one can "know" a tenet of beliefs without "believing" it to be truth. this can be extremely oversimplified and bastardized by the artist who could portray such themes in a less than accurate or even a superficial light and so many are guilty of it. but i think that a proper exploration of themes can be made by an artist, without inferring anything about the artist's true beliefs. |
|
and remember that the earliest bands using satanic imagery were not doing it to be "satanic" but anti-christian and anti-dogmatic. purely as a provocation to social norms. these weren't satanists. |
|
Obviously.
Shock value must be taken into consideration. |
|
Oversimplification is oversimplified. Are we talking about Satan as a concept? An archetype? A literal fallen angel? A different entity (or entities) under the same name? Congealed psychic energy given shape? A philosophy? Or just a figurehead for simple opposition? Are any/all of these things mutually exclusive? And what serious occultist talks about them explicitly on a fucking message board without a healthy degree of misdirection?
Besides, black-and-white literal thinking is for Abrahamic monotheists. If your concept of a thing is that limited, I don't know what to tell you. |

keep things and stuff out of black metal |

why reinvent the wheel? quit your whining, put on your spikes and paint, grab a battleaxe and shriek about Satan. |
