Metal Thread 2: In Metal There Is No Law

[Kiaculta]

Let's look at some of the tenets of LaVeyan Satanism from my point of view.

THE NINE SATANIC STATEMENTS
1. "Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence." Okay this isn't the best. I don't drink or drug and never got the appeal of one night stands so those sorts of excesses are out. Um...I love food?
2. "Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams." Quite agreeable there. I believe in self-preservation and survival. A god or spiritual thingy doesn't make good things happen to you, YOU make them happen by putting effort into it.
3. "Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit." Once again, I believe in realism.
4. "Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it, instead of love wasted on ingrates." White knights aren't necessary all the time. Douchebags aren't worth my time.
5. "Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek." If someone's a dick to me, they shouldn't expect anything else in return.
6. "Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires." I can interpret this as not helping people who refuse to help themselves. Freeloaders: Get the fuck out of here.
7. "Satan represents man as just another animal (sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all fours), who, because of his "divine spiritual and intellectual development", has become the most vicious animal of all." Hey, we can be pretty big douchebags at times. And religion has probably caused more violence and inhumanity than many other elements of our history and culture as a species.
8. "Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification." Ties in with #1, I can't really agree with it. Some things aren't worth fucking yourself over for a temporary high.
9. "Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as he has kept it in business all these years." To be fair, villains are always more interesting than heroes.

Never read these before.

I guess I can never be a Satanist. I just can't agree with some of these.

*Gets to 10:20 of Crushed*

*Starts headbanging uncontrollably, throws chair out window, starts bashing head through wall, and then starts hammering random shit*

*looks it up*

Damn, this is pretty awesome. Those drums.

This band doesn't have a Facebook, and trying to look them up only yields Rotting Christ.

They're apparently quite obscure.

Which is a shame because this is a badass album.

I needs to check this out.

Wait, hold on, Nergal shared a "legendary" band that "never wimps out", so I must listen to the Dark Master's musical tastes.

I was expecting something heavy as shit, but that is far from what I got.

This is just rock. But not just any rock. It's some special kind of rock. Very atmospheric. And it's not metal but I like it.

Thanks, Nergal.

[NeuPolska]

I needs to check this out.

It took a while for it to click with me, so don't give up too soon, because once it does click you'll see why I started flipping so much shit.

Rule 6 is about telling people who are manipulating you for their own gain via guilt, favors and the like to fuck off. There's a whole chapter on how to spot them, and even a few suggestions on how to reverse their 'spells.' (IE guilting them instead, or accepting their 'gifts' and never returning the favor)

[Nirvash Type TheEND]

What are the angriest sounding bands you know? I don't want lolbr00tal vocals I want someone sounding like they're legit going hoarse because they're so batshitfuckingpissed.

Razor maybe? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVsuFQnAHmo

Some musicality would be appreciated.

Ahh ok. I still agree with it, though not with the reverse guilting crap.

3 minutes in and not bad. Sticking with it.

I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT THE DRUMS. Must learn this.

[Nirvash Type TheEND]

No, it's not. No one should want to emulate Metallica.

[Kiaculta]

You can emulate good Metallica...

[Impaled Nazarene]

And that's a good thing!

No, it's not. No one should want to emulate Metallica.

Get out. It's clear you really aren't going to enjoy anything unless you get rid of your harsh vocal ban. So either listen to that album in whole or give me more options.

[Nirvash Type TheEND]

No, it's not. No one should want to emulate Metallica.

There has to be good Metallica first.

Oh no, I can deal with typical metal vocals. I'm just tired of them. I want something that reminds me of the good old days, when myspace was fresh, I was discovering girls bodies for the first time, and when I thought Slipknot's self titled and Iwoa was as hardcore as it gets.

[NeuPolska]

I've been neglecting folk metal.

MAN THE OARS.

IT'S TIME TO LISTEN TO NEHALENNIA!

VOORWAARTS! VOORWAARTS!
OVER DE ZEEËN!
VOORWAARTS! VOORWAARTS!

Oh kurwa.

You're in the wrong thread.

[Kiaculta]

THE ELEVEN SATANIC RULES OF THE EARTH
1. "Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked." I admit...I'm a sinner in this instance.
2. "Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them." I absolutely detest people who constantly complain about random crap in their life.
3. "When in another's lair, show them respect or else do not go there." Now this is just common decency.
4. "If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat them cruelly and without mercy." Again, be nice and people will be nice to you. But be a dick and expect dick in return. NOT IN A GOOD WAY (if that's your cup of tea).
5. "Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal." Again, basic human decency. Seeing as how I have a partner, this doesn't need to be applied in any way so yeah...cuddling is very metal though.
6. "Do not take that which does not belong to you, unless it is a burden to the other person and they cry out to be relieved." I see a trend here. Basically be decent to people...in this case it's ok to help people out.
7. "Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained." This is what I was talking about with LaVeyan Satanism's philosophy being completely butchered by the magic crap. Like really!
8. "Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself." See #2.
9. "Do not harm little children." Ooh, Satanism is SO bad!
10. "Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food." Also something I support politically. Not a fan of sport hunting. But I also love steak and burgers and bacon.
11. "When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask them to stop. If they do not stop, destroy them." Okay you can tone down on the drama. But yeah, mind your own business and don't be an annoying prick.
