You actually like that? curiousI'll admit that I enjoy spinning it every now and then.
Yep, is good.
Rather than get all worked up over the "norsecore!" debates of years past I always enjoyed late period Immortal for what is was: good blackened heavy metal.
What the hell is so bad about "norsecore"? While I don't mind some slower paced atmospheric black metal, why do some of these shitty one off demo bands complain about bands like Marduk or Endstille? I never understood that.
Well, the reason why so-called norsecore doesn't do anything for me, personally, is because I always found them too sterile and emotionless; and the constant hyper-blasting just irritates me.
I recall you and I had a brief converstaion about my views on black metal and how it puts my mind into a sort of alpha-wave state; I do enjoy the Sturm und Drang strain of many black metal bands, but ultimately I seek black metal that takes my mind away and norsecore, with it's incessant hyper-blasting, roared vox and lack of ambience, just interferes with that whole trip.
And there is too much that I enjoy listening to paired with too little time to bother with things I don't enjoy.
But, hey, if you and others like it, cool.
