    Boromir is laid to rest in one of the other boats. His sword rests with him, his shield is above his head and his cloven horn at his side. The boat slips over the falls of Rauros and then drops into the mists below. Gimli watches the boat disappear from the bank. Aragorn ties Boromir’s vambraces to his arms, in his honor. Legolas hurriedly shoves the third boat into the water.

      @@dukenukem8598 Yeah, I think he just means the "I R Dorkthrone!!" bands that think black metal is just yelling about Christians while wearing Kiss makeup are frustrating because they lack authenticity and soul. They are not all bad, but as I get older I listen to stuff a lot more like this video and a lot less of the "Christraping Black Metal" by Marduk type of BM.

    • @dukenukem8598
      @dukenukem8598 4 роки тому +3

      ​@@kvltizt Funny that you mention Darkthrone, I recently had a dream and have been pondering the branch of black metal that developed from Darkthrone a bit. Marduk, Dark Funeral, etc esque norsecore is not what I consider bad DT-clones or even DT-clones at all. Both are of course rock and roll music disguised as black metal ie a fundamentally different song structure, but the bad DT-clones at least are fun to listen to and serve as good rock and roll music. However, the line of development of black metal that could be described as using the best Darkthrone as a starting point (ie Transilvanian Hunger) and refining it further is one of the most supreme manifestations of black metal. Cf your comment about you lately preferring post-black metal more and more, I have a contrary feeling. Most post-bm seems to be "Burzumic" in spirit, and imo that band while important lacks one of the key characteristics of black metal that separate it from other music with similar structures: forward velocity and which is the important connecting strand that still keeps black metal connected to metal; an element which is present in Darkthrone, and as I said, the said newer bands refining this approach (stripping away the traces of Celtic Frost that remained in the Transilvanian Hunger sound and adding somewhat more complexity both in large scale structure and the individual riffs, while still maintaining the spaciousness and relative minimalism that is so important in black metal etc) constitute one of the best strands in this genre.

      DUNGAELF GoldSmith You are right. It's indeed something mesmerizing. Same goes for other languages you don't understand in my opinion. Altough it's not quite the same, but if you don't understand what the artist(s) sing(s) it has to be more than just a overused and absolutely boring melodie. And most of the Hits today are exactly like that. You understand what they are singing but if you leave away the voice the melody is just boring/annoying. And the lyrics are often quite dumb. (I'm not saying that every hit is like that, but nearly every single one get's damn annoying if you hear it too often. And most of them are ...as I explained above. )

I'd have to check it on a guitar to be sure. It comes up through the whole album. Rare to hear that level of craftsmanship in music these days.
