How come no one here ever mentions metal? Is it because it's not current enough? I don't think that there aren't fans of metal on this website, in spite of the trolls that pop up with "metal is for children threads," which I always avoid. I think if there are any metal listeners on this site, such as myself, then they just keep to themselves. I don't think a genre like metal can be completely untouched by a community of fricken music enthusiasts... or whatever you guys are...

Album picture is: Nocturnus - the key

But in all seriousness, /mu/ was predominately metal for the longest time, it's only within the last 3ish years that the hipster backlash has engulfed it. Now it's full of circle jerking 16 yearolds.

none of which are bands I liked. I never came on /mu/ until like a few months ago.

Personally, I already have ordered the new defeated sanity record. There's not a whole lot of stuff I'm super excited for. I'm sure the new gorguts will be amazing, because it's gorguts. I'm also stoked for the new skagos. That band has been my favorite black metal band ever, and I love everything they've put out. I'm not big on a whole bunch of new metal. I think a lot of it is either not true enough to the style (meaning it carelessly melds other elements in) or it just worships the old school. It's a bit of a stretch, but sometimes there's something new that I really enjoy. I'm picky.

You obviously have nothing of worth to say now considering you've resorted to: "I was doing it then, I'm objectivily right, this means my own previous generalization is now somehow okay when applied to me".
You're just feeling old and wash-up and now. You are trying to cling to some sort of relevancy while refusing to look around and see that things really aren't so different because you'd rather stew in nostalgia for a "better time" on this board then go out and participate.

Darkthrone is poop. He's taking styles everyone has already heard like agent steel and blending it with black metal elements like bathory and venom. It's really nothing to be excited about unless you have the amazing ability to really appreciate something just for sounding metal.

>Immolation
Seriously, another band that has just been at it for like 20 years. I may listen to like one track to see if there's any difference between close to a world below, dawn of possession and here in after. Seriously, bands like this have nothing new to offer. It's a career for them to put out a new album every couple years after they've toured.

>Broken Hope
I dunno. I didn't care for their earlier stuff.

>Portal
Maybe this will be a new chart topper. I dunno.

>Centurian
Never heard of it

>Belphegor
These guys play total masturbatory trash. It all sounds alike and they run on a formula. Play metal in high quality accessible production value and add black metal influence. Same thing with Behemoth.

>Twilight
Never heard of it.

I hear there's a new toxik album coming out. I'm apprehensive, but at the same time interested to see how far they've come, or if this is just going to be another band coming out with another shitty 'reunion' album.

Seriously. The creativity of the death metal scene has been pretty desolate since the 90s when a shittonomg of bands came out with enduring classics. Not to say we don't have active and awesome bands; the chasm to name one. Seriously, the chasm is incredible. Not to say there isn't less than ten bands who are still active and producing good metal. Maybe the good bands aren't producing, but probably a good amount are still active. I just hate when bands like demigod come back from the abyss and come out with something totally average. Like, I wouldn't want gorement or demilich or rippikoulu or hundreds of other one album-ever-released-bands to come back. I want their classics to live on in complete legendary status.
