OK, his thread has gone off the rails, so what's one more push?

I've got fairly broad taste in music from Puccini to George Strait to The Crystal Method and am always open to the adventure.

Please hit me with the primer tracks for this genre you are talking about - select them like you want me to go further into the underwater cave, not quickly resurface for air ...

These first bands are known as second wave Black metal, but only in retrospect. They were influenced by bands like Venom and Bathory, now known as first wave, but really not similar at all. 

In saying that, Black metal can be fast, slow, heavy, depressing, beautiful, pagan etc etc, unlike a lot of genres it has no real set structure. 

But interestingly Black metal is the closest musically written and structured as classical music. 

 

Emperor - I am the black Wizards

Dark Throne - Transylvania Hunger

Cradle of Filth - Her Ghost in the fog

Gorgoroth - Prayer

Satyricon - black crow on the tombstone

Rotting Christ - Raven

Immortal - Tyrants

Dark Funeral - Artrum Regina

 

These bands followed those above.

 

Wolves in the throne room - I will lay down my bones or Diadem of 12 stars

Kampfar - Det Sorte

Wodensthrone - That which is now forgotten 

Moonsorrow- suden tunti 

MGLA - Exercise in futility V

Drudkh - Solitude

Der Weg Einer Freiheit- Aufbruch

None - Wither

Imperium Dekadenz - Ave Danuvi 

Hulder -  Purgations of bodily corruptions 

Suldusk - Nazare

Darkher - where the devil waits

Veitah - Tajamnica Tajamnic

I’m only scratching the surface and have left out many bands, but tried to get a spread of various styles and be aware a lot don’t sing in English

One of the great ironies. Barry didn't write "I Write the Songs"

Reminds me of that guy in the 80s who sang “Gonna write a classic…” (spoiler- he didn’t).

By “brews” you don’t mean Kool-Aid, right?

You're right.  It was complete [censored]

For those interested this doco gives a good overview of the extreme metal genres and leading bands. The Norwegian black metal scene is well covered @Gorgoroth It's presented by a Canadian dude, Sam Dunn, who produces lots of metal related content so well worth checking out.

I’m an old grindcore fan. Napalm Death and Carcass are the original and best in my view

Napalm Death’s Harmony Corruption is a masterpiece, I have that and all Carcass albums on vinyl except surgical steel.

Love Carcass, one of my favs.

Playing some Bolt Thrower now.

I listen to heaps of black metal but love everything from Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, W.A.S.P, Slayer, Megadeth, Testament, Kreator, Entombed, Morgoth, ie I don’t care the genre if it’s awesome I’ll listen to it.

James Hetfield from Metallica blew his out. 
But it’s all about warming up and not forcing a sound but what sound you can make. Like Falsetto some have the range/abilty to do so. 
One of the more interesting vocalists is Dani Filth and he does the black metal style growls but adds a falsetto range to the growls which gives a mix of higher pitched growls. 
I watch a classical singer/vocal teacher who watches vids and talks you through how they are singing etc, I find it fascinating.

 Interesting vocalist, particularly on 2 early albums in the 1970s (David Surkamp, from the band Pavlov's Dog). Sounds like falsetto but it's not. Check it out on Youtube. I listened to them for years (as I was once a rather solid musician - the keyboard arrangements on piano were quite astounding so I bought the manuscripts as well as the LPs) but the voice of DS was exceptional and 'way out there'.

Ah @Gorgoroth   used Satyricon as one of my favourite metal bands   but also a play on words with Demonland

But no High on Fire or Motorhead tsk tsk

If you like a bit of organ based metal, not a euphemism, try Atomic Rooster

Was going to use Twaddle and Guff as an homage to some of the output on Public forums, but a bit too obvious

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
