Abigail Williams.

 

Outclasses all other Symphonic Black Metal.

 

But that might just be me' date=' cause I like metalcore, and Abigail has some metalcore influences.

Ugh. I can NOT stand Abigail Williams. They remind me more of symphonic deathcore rather than black metal. To me, it seems like they took cookie-cutter deathcore music, substituted growls for higher pitched screams and threw in a keyboard and expected to be called symphonic black metal. The only song by them that I found to be any good was Watchtower.

 

I could easily name a dozen symphonic black metal bands off the top of my head that blow them out of the water. :-? Just saying.

Go ahead and name them then. Maybe I just haven't heard of them. ;)

 

Abigail's main flaw, in my opinion, is that they're really repetitive. No variation in scream pitch, tone, style, whatever. Same exact sound throughout the entire song, every song.

 

As such, I get really sick of them really fast. But in theory I think they're pretty good.

 

Also, I don't think they're cookie cutter deathcore, musically. Deathcore sounds pretty bad, imo.

Just cause you said so... Naglfar, Alghazanth, Carach Angren, Arthemesia, Apostasia, Obtained Enslavement, Enslavement of Beauty. Just saying. ;)

 

And yeah. They're pretty boring. IDK... When I tried to focus on the music behind the keyboards, they just sounded pretty cookie cutter to me...

Well, he already knew about Dark Funeral, so it wouldn't be necessary to add them. And OMG. I DID forget Grand Belial's Key... I have shamed myself. :-(

You got Unholy Matrimony, Ragnarok, Diabolical Masquerade, and others up there. You saved me the time of naming them myself. You deserve a medal for such an achivement.

The sad part is... I forgot Grand Belial's Key... AND I WAS LISTENING TO THEM EARLIER! I had their album Judeobeast Assassination on blast. Lamb of God Slain Will Be is one of my favorite black metal tracks.

Very very good additions, master. I like how you added a lot of great symphonic

black metal bands. Especially the ones that get overlooked often.

 

Big thumbs up for Darkwoods My Bethrothed, Anorexia Nervosa, Aaskereia, Lux Occulta, Opera IX, Agathodaimon, Ad Hominem, and Astarte.

Older Dimmu Borgir

 

Where do they get these band names!!??

 

They're actual words in different languages. Not everyone speaks English. xD

 

Anyway... Dimmu Borgir is taken from the name of a volcanic formation in Iceland' date=' Dimmuborgir.

[/quote']

 

It's interesting where they get these. I don't know all that much about Black Metal, but they have very original band names.

Original yes, though when I read Anorexia Nervosa it makes my stomach go blub.-.-

Decent band though and almost "zum Erschiessen schön".:cool:

 

My recommendations would be Bathory, Carpathian Forest, Lord Belial, Grand Belial's Key, Darkwoods My Betrothed and Agathodaimon (Blacken The Angel and Serpent's Embrace mostly).

Early Moonspell or Lux Occulta are worth it too. (I still think Moonspell is good but now it's rather Gothic Metal).

 

And for more symphonic or melodic stuff: Graveworm (older), Astarte, Enslavement of Beauty, Hecate Enthroned

 

Pagan Black Metal: Światogor, Aaskereia

Moonspell's Scorpion Flower is the work of gods.

 

That is all.
