There has been plenty of debate over the years over this band's musical direction and the motives behind it. But whether you love them or hate them you simply cannot deny that this band has played a major part in bringing some of the darker forms of metal to the fore of this musical sub-culture.

Purely due to their controversial nature it is absolutely imperative we are able to look at their music without any prejudice or preconceived judgements. There was in fact a time when they were well respected in the Black Metal fraternity and this term is used lightly to avoid any immediate accusations of incorrect genre definition.

Check out their first album The Principle of Evil Made Flesh. Danni's vocal stay is more aggressive and raspy than on this one. (Btw is this how you comment on a previous comment?) Loading...

This one is retty good too but I completely understand the hate on the vocals. I learned to just go past them once I focus on the great riffs, kind of like with Silencer haha. ---- Written by BloodTears on 19.08.2011 at 18:29 Like you could kiss my ass Written by Milena on 20.06.2012 at 10:49 Rod, let me love you.
