kinda telling when a friend of mine who had not listened to any real undergound bands in year s and was was never into black metal starts telling me he is looking forward to the new darkthrone album.
they have a new audience now and i must say they are welcome to them .
i tried hard to like the newer stuff seeing as darkthrone were my favourite band for years but it comes off as a parody no matter which angle you approach it from. |

It's simply utterly boring and terribly written music to me, nothing more or less. Production is unbelievably bland as well, the guitar sounds like some generic out-of-the-box Guitar Center sound.

Just heard "Leave No Cross Unturned" and loved it!!!
Some Mercyful Fate/King Diamond worship and done well imo.
Thrash Metal until about 2:55 mark where you start to hear that it actually is Darkthrone.
Don't know if the download link will work for everyone. All you need to do is type in your email address and they will send you a download link: http://emailunlock.com/peaceville-burning-shed/darkthrone-leave-no-cross
I will be buying the album for sure. This song is on repeat right now. |

Do they send you the full song or just the same edited that they're streaming? Can't wait to hear the whole record! |

Don't know anything about a song that they are streaming so I never heard it. The song for download is 6:53 long. |

New song is bad... very bad. From "heavy metal" point of view is not lesser shit oppose to "black metal" point of view... song is divided in several parts which doesn't have any clear connection regarding it's musical structure...
First part is like classic heavy/thrash stuff, second part of the song is more like old Darkthrone with some strange effect on vocals and last part is like most obvious Cetic Frost homage with "Tom G. Warrior" vocals in the history of all Darkthrone albums...
I think they just drink too much...

You realize this is Darkthrone we're talking about here? It's a great song. Maybe you prefer to listen to the same riff for 7 minutes? Unfortunately not too many bands can pull it off these days. Even Vikernes failed at this on his last few albums.

Hit the nail right on the head with this one. And what's wrong with that? Seems like it doesn't matter what this band does, those who are set on hating it will find something to pick on. |

You people act like Darkthrone sold out and just released a metalcore album.
The band is playing old school style Heavy Metal, if any band can pull off the sound of old, it's Darkthrone.
Sure you don't have to like this and I can understand this not being your cup of tea, but the way you people bash this is laughable and pathetic. Their last few albums may not be my favorite, but I don't see anything criminally wrong with them. |

I know I would. "Inn I De Dype Skogers Favn" and "As Flittermice As Satans Spys" are my favorite Darkthrone tracks.
I actually like the new song and was not into the last 3 albums. |

Given that metalcore is dying and all those 80's metal revivals are a big thing, if they meant to sell out they would obviously release something exactly like what they're doing.

There's tons of 2nd grade retro-heavy metal that do this kind of stuff better, and there are old bands who still do it better.

What is laughable and pathetic? Pointing out shameless ripoffs ('tributes') or obvious uninspiration and blandness of this song? The criticism I've seen doesn't come from it not being kvlt, but being straight up shit. |
