Metal / Re: darker side of classical music
« on: July 04, 2009, 05:08:56 PM »
Dark can mean a lot of things, but Bartok's Miraculous Mandarin has frequently been described as "hellish". Prokofiev's Scythian suite has some dark and violent moments, and probably has been a major influence on film scores. Holst's Mars is already pretty famous, but I like Neptune a little better: it's calmer, but darker and more mysterious and subtle, kind of like the Burzum of the Planets suite.

To do the pre-order, you have to go to the main label page, then go to the catalogue section, then to Me-N section, then finally scroll down to the release and hit the Add to Cart button.

Maniac was pretty much inconsequential when it came to Mayhem at their best anyway.

Chasm / Re: Chuck Schuldiner: The Pity Party Never Ends

Apparently they can't read very well either. "Schuldiner"? Say it in a New York accent; that's a Jewish name if I've ever heard one. Silly Stormfront peoples.

This whole R.I.P. Chuck/Dimebag thing is a fucking disease. Right now, people are crying about the first vocalist of Devourment dying... disgusting. I didn't think people listened to them anymore.

Enslaved (at least on the albums that actually mattered) were exceptionally skilled at slow/fast dynamics. Particularly, "Lifandi Lif Undir Hamri" has a very dramatic fast-slow-fast transition in the middle of the song.

I wonder if his diatribe was just a reaction to a perceived threat to record sales, or if he already held these convictions deeply before the whole video incident... Probably the former, as the whole thing seems a bit haphazard and roughshod.

I always liked Silenius's vocals more than Protector's.  ;)
