The first two dissection albums basically sound the same. This is lame proto Gothen(((berg))) melodeth. You can thank these two albums for all the worst Redditor melodeath trends. I would also argue these barely even qualify as black metal. I think I remember black metal pioneer Euronymous made a comment about how sacramentum was weak and that band is practically indistinguishable from dissection. He is correct. The production is way too clean and overdone. These albums are not heavy sounding in the slightest. A light thrash band like anthrax sounds heavier. They do not even sound evil either. There is no scary sound of Darkthrone or mayhem here. The third album was so bad I’m pretty sure it caused Jon to kill him self because everyone hated it so much. What about Jon himself? He was most likely a homosexual that’s why a gay man was following him and Faust because they were at a gay bar and they had to kill this man because he was a witness to their gayness.
>>131607619I actually agree OP
>>131607619>Euronymous made a comment about how sacramentum was weak and that band is practically indistinguishable from dissection.this gave it away. try being more subtle next time, op
>>131607619But Jon Nödtveidt shot some old faggot to death, so I don't give a fuck
>>131607619All true except most melodeath wasn't influenced by them
>>131607619Okay Kristian.
>>131608099He shot him after they had sex at the gay bar
>>131607619Sauce on this pasta?
>>131607619>This is how out of the loop I was. I met [Euronymous] and he kind of reminded me of Squiggy from ‘Laverne and Shirley’. Because I met him when I was a kid, too, at a baseball game. I met him and I was like, ‘Wow, fuckin’ Squiggy.’ Anyway, I meet the guy and he’s four foot five, carrying a mace, but it looks like he stole the table leg off his mom’s kitchen table and put, like, nails through it and shit. And he was wearing this $1.99 cape that you’d buy at the dollar store during Halloween. They brought me backstage and they said, ‘Uranus, or whatever, from MAYHEM is there and wants to meet you.’ So, I went out there and met him. And in his broken English, he said [in robotic, foreign accent] ‘I did not have problem with you, but this band GORGUTS. They are not true death metal/black metal band.’ And I was just sitting there with a big shit-eating grin on my face like, ‘Yeah, that’s cool, man.’ And I really didn’t know the importance of the guy. To me he looked like another goofball fan.
>>131608099You're talking about his suicide, right?
>>131607619valid post desu, I always got repressed homo vibes from that MLO shit, plus sweden has a remarkably high number of zesty men
>>131607619Aren't you the same fucker who made a thread about how "trash" Megadeth's Rust in Peace is?
>>131607619>2026>still hating on melodeath
>>131607619>it's not shitty lo fi black metal that sounds like it was recorded with a potato and it has recognizable melodies there fore it sucksLmao at black metal fags
>>131607619Reinkaos is indeed gay as fuck but SOTLB is cool as shit
>>131607619(((black))) and (((death))) metal both fucking sucks.
>>131607619true black metalheads love the first two dissection albums. it doesn't matter what you think or even if it's "black metal" at all. it's just nice and epic. and it does have an evil aura
it's honorary black metal by extracurriculum activities, riffs and atmosphere merit
when you listen to Arghoslent, do you think "oh I don't like it because it's melodeath and not BM" ?
>>131612282Arghoslent is melodeath for people who think they are too cool for melodeath
>>131607619Dissection isn't black metal, that's why it's actually good. Black metal isn't really good. Jon basically had his whole style worked out half a decade before shitters like Sacramentum decided to copy him. https://youtu.be/87NI7XshqN4?si=-FbM5NU5cH_J57Lx
I like Dissection, I think the songwriting was really strong on that album. However, I do recognize some validity to black metal fans' dismissal, because it was so conventional compared to the rest of the genre. Euronymous thought every black metal band needed to sound completely different and unique, and that ethic is what makes early black metal so strong. Mayhem, Thorns, Enslaved, Satyricon, Emperor, Immortal, Darkthrone, Burzum, Carpathian Forest, bands outside of Norway like Sigh, and first wave bands like Celtic Frost, Bathory, Von, etc. all sound completely different from each other, and that's why their music is still so valuable. Dissection's actual music has a feel that's almost closer to the most conventional melodeath bands like In Flames, than other black metal bands. I also think Storm of the Light's Bane is the only great Dissection album, and I actually find Dissection's third/last album really boring and lame.The black metal bands' focus on experimentation and uniqueness was in part a rejection of how samey death metal had become. It's unfortunate that now so much atmospheric black metal is completely indistinguishable from other bands now.
>>13161229095% of people here shilling arghoslent are incels attracted to the lyrical content. it's a plus that they also have good riffs but this phenomenon is also seen with the outsized shilling of NSBM bands in /metal/. those of which are largely musically dogshit and all sound the same yet get shilled again because of the lyrics.
It's just Iron Maiden worship
>>131618046+ King Diamond/Mercyful Fate
>>131616116> The black metal bands' focus on experimentation and uniqueness was in part a rejection of how samey death metal had become.So explain why most faggots here hate on disso ?
>>131619872>if black metal is about rejecting the samey tendencies of death metal, why do people hate on a bunch of bands that take a lot of influence from death metal and all sound the same?Gee I wonder why
>>131607619Yeah but most melodeath is more thrash than black inspired
>>131612112Shut your pile hole, retard
>>131607619There was nothing melodeath about it.
