Yep! The riffs, the drums, the vocals, the atmosphere, such a fucking black metal masterpiece. Other albums from that era are all classics, from A Blaze....., to Panzerfaust, but this one has things the others dont have.
This album is what Black Metal is all about, it's all in there, the whole fucking thing. Fenriz' drumming is also brilliant on this one. Those short double kicks coming out of nowhere, amongst other details, are pure gold. I've always said Nocturno Culto's uniquely expressive vocals always adds something to the songs, but so does Fenriz' drumming, no matter how simple he gets.
The bass guitar sounded better on this album than any other Darkthrone album. To me this album ranks behind only Panzerfaust and A Blaze In The Northern Sky
So I concur with Fenriz in that "Inn i de Dype Skogers Favn" is one of the best Black Metal tracks from Darkthrone... Though I put it this way: this song, among with the rest of them here, make it the best pure Black Metal album of all time (that's my perspective, at least).
turdidae Different beast. Burzum had those old school riffs, but generally, not much metal in Burzum. The man's strenght was songwriting and atmosphere And to be fair, Fenriz himself talks about Burzum as "the shit"!
@@gehennagehenna1373 lol It's funny how Varg called the guitar a n* instrument, then retracted that and said most music written on it is n* music, yet most of his stuff is guitar/bass/vocals/drums, which is basically rock'n'roll, which was originally black people's music. He's always been the best at revisionism.
grown up on bathory this is great, always loved the early darkthrone albums and to hear feneriz explain the tribute to the hords is fucking great! so lowd hihats is the trick huh ? hihhat over snare and no base =)
@@InMemorium2Euronymous I would say generally people into TH are more dsbm and extreme metal fans and UAFM more into old school black and thrash metal. In general obviously, just my observations
@@awesomeguyscej6186 lol. What? All the metal subgenres you mentioned are extreme metal. I can't think of anyone who prefers TH preferring DSBM either
@slaythembeforeme I think he's generally right on this point - TH basically made the DSBM subgenre and almost all its adherents say as much as far as their influences go. Draugr, Leviathan, Xasthur, etc. TH tends to be the favorite for folks who like slower and downpaced black metal like early Judas Iscariot.
They've said that Zephyrous left the band because of "hatred again humans" (?) (maybe against the Darkthrone guys?), he kinda felt like an outsider because of Fenriz and Nocturno Culto being close friends, and they've also said that he went into the forest and was never seen again. But then Nocturno said that he has been in touch with him, he might wanted to do something again with the guys, but that's it, no more info.
There's an interview with Nocturno Culto around the mid 00s where he said that Zephyrous was planned to return, but he had an accident with a circular saw.
Best Darkthrone album.
I can never decide between this one or Transilvanian Hunger
I'm a blaze in the northern sky kinda guy
For me, Panzerfaust is number 1 and then I can't decide whether Under A Funeral Moon or Transylvanian Hunger is 2nd
I can not decide between A Blaze In The Northern Sky, Under A Funeral Moon, Transilvanian Hunger and Panzerfaust.

Very educational. Entertaining.
Fenriz doesn't get drunk, he gets obliterated

the bass sounds like... rather normal... actually
This album is so great that I had a hard time paying attention to Fenriz talking over it. Darkthrone's quintessential album!
so bassically this album is a love letter to 80s underground metal. Nice!
the best BM album hands DOWN!
This record blew my mind and it was just a big fuck off to everything and I loved it. Still do.
A must listen to Fenriz Commentary
easily in top 10 black metal albums its the first black metal album that carries %100 black metal spirit
This is so cool. Thanks for the upload✌🏽

Absolutely! I like Burzum better, but when it comes to pure Black Metal, this is it!

There are several EXTREMELY subtle chords changes in the main riff of this song that most people can’t hear. It makes it what it is.
Wonderful ending, haha. So Fenriz.
Soul sucking riffs ..l approve
That's the freezing moon slow section in the second track. Good tribute.
Plaguewielder is my second favourite Darkthrone album after this, funny that Fenriz mentions it here...

Super cool.
Amazing
wow Fenriz doesnt like Sally Field
You can predict a lot about what kind of bm someone likes based on whether they like this or transylvanian hunger better hahaha
what can you predict?

“Walk the infernal fields…I hope it’s not Sally Fields….” Lolol😂

Lol "and then it was.. substance abuse ahoy, man"
Such a shame what happened to Zephyrus
What happened? You mean he quit the band?
Yeah, what happened?
He dipped
