Satyricon

Now, Diabolical certainly isn't their best album, but I enjoy it more than their other albums. The production quality is great and the riffs are awesome, especially on the first track. The poor recording quality on their early albums dissuade me to listen to them, but they are without a doubt their strongest albums. Rebel Extravaganza is a really weird album with odd song structures, and I haven't heard Volcano. I actually think that they should re-record Nemesis Divina, but not over-produce it.

I personally can't find the deal with "Nemesis Divina", I find that album extremely overrated and the electronic elements added just don't work... the song Mother North can be an anthem, but I don't find it particulary attractive... the vocals in that album are also badly done, they hurt the ears.

Yeah man, I completely agree. I thought I was the only person who didn't like this album. I'm sure I'd like it better if it was re-recorded and actually include a bass drum in there.

Yes , maybe it's not their best album, but it ROCKS!! for me it's better than "now diabolical"...
even if my favourite album is "rebel extravaganza"...

I'm just soooo happy for "finding" Satyricon again... I haven't been listening to blackmetal for several years now (I've gotten too old...) and when I heard KING I was amazed I liked it. I've liked whole Now Diabolical as I like Volcano.
Anyway, I have always been lousy on putting labels to the music I listen, so I don't care what this current Satyricon is being called as... I liked them ten years ago and i like them again now. I think that's cool

The only part I really like in Satyricon is the folky stuff they made on "Dark Medieval Times" and there were some nice riffs on "The Shadowthrone". Don't like much else, Nemesis Divina is rather bland and I don't enjoy most of their Black 'n Roll type stuff.

Finally, after they have cancelled their gig at Metal Camp 06, Satyricon is coming to Ljubljana pritty soon.
Though I'm more into their older stuff (DMT is like adiamond to me, it just transferred me into a special all kinds of emotions), I'm anxiously waiting to see them live. Even with their new stuff.
I already own a ticket. Be there.

I've read somewhere that Satyr wants his band to play not BM but blackcore.

What the fuck is that? Just another word for black 'n' roll?

I guess nowdays everythig is -CORE. It should be interesting.

lmao! Blackcore?!? Wow...that's...wow...

that shit exists since a long time though.... like Alfonso said in some review (I think of Meshuggah), all Metalcore bands nowadays sound like some 5th generation At The Gates.

lol oh duh...metalcore.

Seeing them live on the 21st of this month. And I can't wait, for I LOVE all of their stuff, from Dark Medival Times to the modern sounding and very inspired Now, Diabolical, which might be more rock influenced but still is BM at its heart nonetheless.

yeah quite similar here! except for: -i'm seeing them on the fourth of October, -I still have to force myself a bit to enjoy "now, diabolical"
PS: i expect your report after the show! or at an opinion

Okay, I saw them last Thursday...

But first had to struggle through a generic set of gothenburg 4th rate Dark Tranquillity music, namely Insomnium, all that was okay about them was the live drum sound, but that was it.
Up next were Keep of Kallessin, whom I had given up after the release of Armada which I find utterly boring generic overproduced bm. But live they were stomachable, at least they sounded rawer than on album (and this gave them the so much needed extra power) but after 40 minutes they were utterly boring too.

But then for the main act, fuck, damn, man, they blew the audience away (the concert was in a sold out 400 people club and everybody was there to see Satyricon) one and a half hours of pure bm bliss. ALthough I love Now, Diabolical (the album) the songs were even better live, they just had more punch and even (dare I say it?) swung like mad, they almost ahd me dancing Of course Satyr made the crowd sing along to the guitarline of Mother North again. A true Iron Maiden Bruce Dickinson moment here, but that worked really well, he got the crowd invloved and was quite talkative. Of course the main eyecatchers were Satyr and Frost, but for a horny old man like me the true eyecatcher was Jonna Nikula behind the keyboard banging her blond longhaired head away. The rest of the live members (I believe they are from Spiral Architect and Keep of Kallessin but am not sure) were very good indeed. And the sound was perfect, you could hear ALL the instruments clearly, also the vocals. Even though everything was clear it was powerful as hell too.

Thenks for your review man! I hope Satyricon will do the same good show here! + keep of kalessin... man! ok you didnot like them, but i know they'll hit me strong. honestly i don't give a fuck about Insomnium, two killing bands in one nigth are enough for me
Hmm maybe just a question: did Satyiricon play old (pre-2000) songs much ?

I really don't believe in Satyr calling the music he makes 'blackcore'. That's just weak and sounds faked. I want a link, at least. New Satyricon is obviously black 'n' roll.

Anyhow, I saw them live last week. Satyr's rockstar persona left me with a band taste in my mouth but otherwise they were good musically, depsite the shitty sound of the venue. Keep Of Kalessin should have been headlining though. Personally, I think Armada is one of my favourite releases this year. Just too bad the curfew forced them to play a handful of songs, 4 I think.

But back to Satyricon, the setlist was quite varied save for the lack of material from DMT. I bet it's because Satyr's forgotten the lyrics They also did a cover of Slayer's 'Raining Blood' crossed with 'Postmortem'. Apparently on other UK dates they played a Bathory cover :'(

What about the chicks in "the pentagram burns" video ? I think they're the hotest of all that ever played in Satyricon videos, the only problem is that Now Diabolical is album desigened for USA, so no naked chicks this time:(

I've been a great fan of Satyricon for a long time. Since I've seen the band live, I have to admit, they're awesome. Their sassion players are great, but don't know who they are.
The gig in Ljubljana on the 4th of October was the best gig ever.

I'd love to see them live in November, but I haven't the money and that same week I'm gonna go to three other concerts
