Metal Discussion / Re: Burzum

Quote from: Eoin McLove on May 10, 2025, 12:57:41 PMI really hope he goes on to the studio with these new songs otherwise they'll end up being little curios that I'll listen to a few times in youtube and forget about. If they get finished in a way that does them justice and get pressed up I could see myself getting mileage out of them.
Just gave the 4 new ones a proper listen, and really liking them. As you say though, they could do with doing properly.
Unfortunately, I see a quote from his Twitter
" Lately, I have made four new tracks for Burzum. I think they were all pretty good, too, but...

... the RPG roots run too deep to keep this up. The CALL OF THE ANCESTORS draws me back to my original calling.

Yeah, I am back to working on RPGs, and I don't have time for both. Some of you will rejoice. Others won't.

See you around...

ReconQuest > Burzum.

IMAGE: You might see a musician. I see an RPG lover...."

So we may not hear more again for a while.

Quote from: Mithrandir on November 28, 2024, 05:12:39 AMThe closing solo in The Oath, one of the most satisfying solos ever


For 2 similarly epic closing solos, see Mercyful Fate - Is that you, Melissa, from In the Shadows, and King Diamond - Black Horsemen, from Abigail.

Quote from: Circlepit on May 22, 2024, 05:07:19 PMThe Cruel Sea is one of my favourite pieces of theirs. It never fails to summon up images of despair and loss.

The Cruel Sea is based on an Irish Trad piece. Wish I could recall the name of it.

Edit: found it. https://youtu.be/RQgXY07sz8Q?si=yk-26m5Gu-Qanuui

Metal Discussion / Metal bars in Lisbon and Porto
July 20, 2023, 07:26:49 PM
Anyone recently visited Lisbon or Porto and found any decent metal bars/music shops?
There used to be a good website that listed metal bars, but it doesn't seem to exist any more.
Thank you.

Afraid to say that I've never seen Iron Maiden live.
Was considering going tonight, but that setlist really does not do much for me.

Really liking the atmosphere and theatrics. If you need another guitarist, let me be first to put my name forward!
