Filosofem is really good as well.
Zeit and Phaedra are two that sound similar, the latter being Tangerine Dream's most famous work (besides the soundtrack to that one Tom Cruise movie). I listened to Caravans to Empire Algol and it just was not my kind of thing. Never been a fan of any "dark...
Hvis Hyset Tar Oss is my favorite.
Burzum was so "branded" to me because Varg was the first (and the only one that I listen to) artist that I listened to that had done something so extreme. I can get over an artist being an *** in everyday life, I just find it a little hard in this case. I...
I've seen it. Fenriz is definitely a character, but he knows his way around music. I'm glad they chose him to follow around for a good portion of the documentary rather than Frost or the guys from Immortal.
I'm gonna have to check that out. And I agree on Varg; he's fascinating and a couple of...

Mark Kozelek/Sun Kil Moon has...
That's not the point. Limp Bizkit has been banal and uninteresting their whole career.

I've just recently gotten into Built to Spill's Perfect From Now On. Absolutely amazing, it's as if Neil Young were a guitarist in Pavement.
There are also a couple good tracks on Japandroids' latest album.
Come on, man...
I hate that Frusciante left. Stadium Arcadium and their...
