Vampyrique

I'm not sure how I'd rank Immortal's catalogue, but I think the albums that you rank in the middle (Blizzard Beasts, Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism, and Sons of Northern Darkness) are actually my favourites. At the Heart of Winter, Pure Holocaust, and Battles in the North would occupy the mid-tier. I remember not being overly impressed with Damned in Black or All Shall Fall either, but I'm willing to bet they're better than I give them credit for; they're long overdue for another listen. From what I've been able to sample, the new album sounds like it could have been released twenty years ago. Although Abbath's croak is missed, I find this change in direction refreshing and exciting.

In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far! oh-a-a-a-oh! Pirates came and broke my heart put the blame on CDRs

Talk about overreaching, now that's a joke I just can't get over! Help me bridge the gap.

You're right, it's not authentic Australian. You'd know what it means if you'd read John Fowles' The Magus which I recommend you do!

A couple of honks on the bicycle horn was all that I was after. But the Internet curtailed my attempts. Like a troll being escorted off a bridge rather than beneath one.

Don't forget to take a piece out and have yourselves a wuzzamaroo. I hope that counts towards me learning Australian.

Requiem's right, even succubacy doesn't count.

Even Australia is touched by the icy breeze of the grimbitten frosty winter realms! Best you slip on your pro-wrestling tights and commit to arabesque postures upon the coldest mountain side paying homage to Blashyrkh the Mighty Ravendark!

Are you familiar with Perdido Street Station? I bought this one a while back but have yet to read it. I only read a couple of chapters, but it seemed interesting.

All I wanted to do was add one more lame pun to my post, but a pop-up message kept informing me that too much time had passed so I could no longer edit my post, and then when I tried once more I was directed to a page informing me that I was banned. Now that is funny!

That's a given, but I can't tell you how many reviews of old books I glance at that are full of complaints, rated poorly or criticized harshly because the author's views were not - and couldn't possibly be - in sync with contemporary views, or if certain aspects of everyday life back then manifested themselves within the story. Why continue reading the author's works then whilst complaining about morals if the moral incongruity between then and now is so well known?

Stuart had a certain style and Paul did too. But with Gian, I could never really tell except in so far as him bringing more of a traditional black metal touch. According to Stuart, it turned out Gian was lazy and didn't contribute much, wasn't the most talented guy, and actually tried to take credit for songs he didn't write! Or something to that effect. I don't remember how it was said but something like that.

I bet those LLN rarities don't even exist and probably have 100% ratings on metal-archives to add to their kvlt reputation. That's how I would play it. I would be the most kvlt black metal band of all time with the most revered reputation via fake online reviews for my sought-after so-called masterpieces, despite there being nothing real about any of it. On my promise of available cassette copies, black metal bedrooms would empty, trolls would emerge from under bridge, misanthropes uniting for the first time, and all for the quest of The Holy Grail of all things unholy!

It truly is. I've always thought Stuart was great, and I often wondered what Gian added to the band besides the odd black metal riff and looking cool like Peewee Herman in that Buffy the Vampire Slayer film.

Apparently editing posts is difficult, I'm unable to fix my post.
