This one is for DEITRIX... - Black Fucking Metal part 2

As promised here's more black metal for ya'll, but specially for DEITRIX since so far he's the only one interested in this shit. This is a Dark Funeral special, to celebrate my almost complete Dark Funeral discography (the discography itself is already completed, I'm just missing the DVD now). Unfortunately, as with most extreme metal, youtube is not a great source of videos. Most are bootlegs shot from the audience with crappy audio, which might make some sense for those who already know the songs, but someone who's listening to them for the first time will get a distorted vision of these songs, know what I mean?

Anyway, above is Open the Gates, from their very first EP, which has really awesome songs for a first effort. Unfortunately my favourite, In the Sign of the Horns, is not on youtube (fuck!), but the other 3 songs are. Besides the two mentioned songs, their first album also has the following:

Shadows Over Transylvania



My Dark Desires



Moving on, probably my all-time favourite Dark Funeral song is Thy Legions Come, from their 2nd full-lenght album Vobiscum Satanas, but once again the only video on youtube is crappy footage from a concert at Wacken Open Air. Still, that song fucking rocks, so here's the vid anyways:



Oh, and here's the trailer for the DVD, Attera Orbis Terrarum:



About black metal, this is a very unique sub-genre of metal music and it's above all an acquired taste. Don't expect to like it right away, because at first it's just going to sound like noise, distorted guitars and a guy screaming. Of course that for most people it will always sound like that, but try to listen to it a couple of times. Who knows, maybe after a while it'll suddenly start to sound more familiar and when you realize it you're already banging to some of the most extreme shit the metal industry has to offer.
