I don't understand how they got so popular. One of the most generic sounding bands today. I've had a few drinks with a couple members at some bar after one of their shows, total dorks.will52 said:

I've been listening to Guilt Machine and I'm really liking it. It's far more Ayreon-like than Stream of Passion. And if it means Arjen might come to the US one of these days then I'm all the more for it.
Although I certainly hope he's not done with Ayreon and we get an album long before 10 years from now.

Cool. I've always felt that Vortex is wasting his talent with Dimmu, and would love to Arcturus produce new music with or without VortexPhobophile said:

The New Nightrage album sounds good! Listen to some of the songs at their myspace. Wearing a Martyr's Crown.
Dethalbum II is so freaking awesome. I just love how Murmaider II was made as this really epic song when in the end it's about a murderous mermaid :lol
But I feel that Nathan Explosion/Brendan Small's is different for some reason, I kind of prefer he's voice on the first Dethalbum.
Still a great album though. "The Cyborg Slayers" is all kinds of awesome, and "I Tamper with the Evidence of the Murder Site of Odin" is probably my favorite song title ever! :lol

I had forgotten about it until a couple days ago. It's getting ridiculous. I'd like to forget about it again and have him announce something to surprise me.

I just spent $250 on this gem:
pre-Torche, and just about one of the heaviest bands i've heard. TONS of unreleased tracks. Limited to 305

Been listening to them for a while now. Excellent choice.corkscrewblow said:
AOTY candidate for sure. Sounds like a (progressive melodic) death metal version of Ayreon which is just all kinds of awesome, complete with random female vox and trumpets.

BMD is a ridiculously great album, $19 well spent!
Next, pick up THIS and THIS. Also, if you really like the old stuff with Jonas growling and/or Åkerfeldt you should try out October Tide. October Tide was formed by Jonas and Fred when Katatonia briefly split in '96. Jonas blew out his voice on that one which is why he had to switch to clean singing and doesn't growl anymore (outside of performing a BMD song for an encore at live shows, usually Murder).

Hmm... this sounds really awesome. I'll get this album for my driving this weekend. Thanks for the recommendation!

What kinds? I usually find the band's own online stores the best for the more obscure stuff. http://www.rockabilia.com has quite a few.
There's a store called Exploding Neds that has a lot of shirts at a Progpower but I think his online store is no more. You could try e-mailing him at explodingneds at bellsouth dot net and see if he can provide you with a list.
Nice, Rockabilia has what i'm looking for, just a bit pricy. Looking for black metal shirts mostly, and it looks like they are all imports. I wanted to get them from the labels site, but Marduk's, for example, had to be shipped from the UK and it took like a month to get them.Ceres said:

Pants shat! I was so disappointed when Arcturus disbanded because I never had the chance to see them live. If Garm will join the band, I'm not sure they're going to tour as I've heard he's not fond of performing live, but I love his voice and his work (Ulver, Head Control System). Been listening to La Masquarade Infernale and Sham Mirrors this week a lot and the news came as a surprise to me. Should read this thread more often although I'm not into black- and death-metal.

Not everyone here's into BM and DM. There's a bit of everything for everyone here.Spwn said:

October Tide's Rain Without End is an amazing album. I love it. I don't like what I have heard from their other CD though.
Anyone else like Swallow the Sun? I am looking forward to their new CD. I heard the sampler on their website and thought it was interesting, way more clean vocals than I was expecting.

Rockabilia has a good selection but their shipping price is ridiculous. Plus I had a bad experience where I bought a shirt, waited 3 months for it to get here, then emailed them about it when it never came. They said it wasn't being printed anymore and that they were about to email me about it (bullshit). Fortunately they let me exchange it for a new shirt or give me a refund.
Phobophile said:
True, but when ever I open the thread, it's full of new obscure BM and DM requests.
Not that I haven't listened that kind of stuff in the past, but for some reason my tolerance for growling has gone quite low.But now that I'm here, I could recommend one of my favorite bands since 2002; Finnish "death rock" band Babylon Whores!
