As The title says it, this is a forum to discuss about your favorite one-man bands. and also a place where you might learn about new bands.

What is a one-man band might you ask?
well... its a band who consist of only 1 member. I think bands like that are great since you can clearly hear one's tought expressed through music without any contradictions. surely there are lots of 1 man bands that are very suckish but still I think one man bands are more suitable for Black Metal.

My Favorite band at the moment is Ad Hominem. With its war like riffs and and black atmosphere.
I am also alot into Kristallnacht and Satanic Warmaster aswell.

EDIT: I didn't really know where to put this thread so I decided to put it here even if most one man band are BM I am speaking of one man bands in general.

How are Iced Earth and Megadeth one-man bands? Who has the majority of say in Iced Earth, Jon Schaffer. Other may have some input but if Jon dosn't like it then thats it. And it the other members don't like it for some reason then there are plenty of others to replace them. Perhaps the only other member with any weight of say in the band in Mat Barlow, but he is not irreplacable. Megadeth, while they havnt always been a one man band, who runs the show. At the end of the day it is Dave Mustaines band, what he says goes esspecially in the last 6 years. Loading...

I had listen to three Xasthur albuns before discovering that it was just one guy. From the one's I know.. Burzum and Xasthur are the best, Leviathan is also nice, and there is one band, Angra Maiyu, that made a split album with Xasthur (althou I'm not sure if it one-man). Curious about Isengard and Falkenbach.. will check out these very soon. ---- ---- member of the true crusade against old school heavy metal, early 80s thrash, NWOBHM, traditional doom, first and second wave black metal, old school death metal, US power metal, 70s prog rock and atmospheric doomsludgestoner. o/ Loading...
