Taake isn't that good, Jesus fucking Christ, Mort. You really latch on to the bottom of the barrel, don't you?

No, and as I explained earlier, there are two kinds of BM bands, ones that play black metal for what it is and how it is (Gorgoroth, Darkthrone, Clandestine Blaze, Katharsis, Incest, etc) and they do it well, I won't dispute that at least, and then there are the bands that really take black metal and bring it into levels of what it CAN be (Mystic Forest, Belenos, Alcest, Negura Bunget, Taake, etc)and it is really down to the fact that I like bands that expand on the already set ideas of what black metal IS and take it into something more musically.

I don't care if people dislike the bands I like, nor do I care to hear their reasoning because chances are if you're going to choose Gorgoroth over Taake then you obviously like black metal for what it is, and not what it can be.

First of all, Taake doesn't even fit in to that group, and secondly, can you try to sound a bit less pretentious with your "what black metal can be" bullshit?

How does Taake not fit into the group of what it can be, they take the core ideas of black metal music and add onto it greatly with their own unique sound aided by the usage of neo-classicism? They are, at the very least, not run of the mill.

And I'm sure that I could.

Neo-classicism? Taake? Yeah...I don't think so.

What is Taake like exactly? I saw some albums in the store the other day and was intrigued.

Bah, I was saying this before the band became ridiculously popular.. So, before TWWTG was released.

I'm intrigued by that cool album cover Taake has with the person on the front with long hair.
