I wouldn’t have it any other way.<br />Referring to the last one: sure did; both their own material and the Mayhem cover were worth a listen.

Looks like we're quite like-minded here so no further debate should be necessary. Not that'd I'd be running a forum here. Hope you enjoyed the rest of the recording too.Velkaarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670411364300686209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-64717386222116238432014-12-30T03:07:46.751-08:002014-12-30T03:07:46.751-08:00“DMDS > anything else by Mayhem.

Form small groups and discuss.” Excuse me for being a prick by replying to that part of your post, but: why discuss this point with anybody, since it is obvious that the only true Mayhem full-length studio album stands above anything else by Mayhem (although I appreciate their earlier recordings, whereas the band without Euronymous are not Mayhem for several reasons as far as I am concerned), and also is “the best Black Metal album ever, due to it's undeniably strong spiritual content” to quote Erik Danielsson (see <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20030121034117/http://www.grimrune.com/watain/heint.html" rel="nofollow"><i>Horrible Eyes</i> interview</a>); well, besides some of the Swedish religious or Norma Evangelium Diaboli releases (like Funeral Mist, Dissection, Malign or Katharsis [to name one non-Scandinavian band]) that is, if you ask me, for the same reason Erik gave.<br />Back to Serpent Lore: I didn’t know them, am listening to them as I am writing this (still the first track, patiently listening to their own compositions before I get to the Mayhem cover), and appreciating the music and the comment “better they have more of that Mediterranean touch to proceedings than trying to sound northern, frozen, cold and fake” (and your weblog in general, of course), being a person that always liked the sound of Mediterranean bands like early Moonspell, Rotting Christ and Mortuary Drape.Someonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-35034194214691536772014-12-21T06:48:31.228-08:002014-12-21T06:48:31.228-08:00@pagan:

There's certainly a bit to catch up as recently I've been posting more than I usually do, partially due the large amount of contributions I got the other month.Velkaarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670411364300686209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-75278121393553773402014-12-21T02:09:59.524-08:002014-12-21T02:09:59.524-08:00I've been away from this blog too long, glad t...I've been away from this blog too long, glad to see it's still going strong and now I have all these obscure demos to hear. I like the reviews/stories you post with them too, that always put this blog a notch above the others.pagannoreply@blogger.com
