ARE THESE BLACK METAL BANDS GOOD??
What’s up rmember me i’m still BIG PIMPIN lol!
Hay whats up everybody thanks for all the help on the blog I posted before about where I was just getting into metal and stuff!! You guys were super cool and when I read it the other day I was all “lol I sound like such a metal n00b back then” but since then I started reading this site (Metal Suck.com) and got into a lot of way more cool bands (I got a new shirt that I am wearing in the picture at the top of this lol)! One of the things that one of the people said was I should get into some local bands bc they are actually considered better than popular bands, I guess bc if not that many people know about them then it makes you sound like you are more of a real fan if you like them?? Like even though Jobs For A Cowboy are way better than the bands in my town (Edmonds, Washington) I can see how it would be cool to be like “Have u heard this band from my town, they are like JFAC but better” bc then you know about something other people don’t!
Anyways I checked out a couple of bands that are from my area and I thought they were kind of cool but I wanted to see what u guys think before I tell anybody about them! I think these bands are ‘black metal’ not death metal, which I don’t know that much about- it doesn’t sound as good as death metal to me but a lot of the black metal bands seem like they are cooler to like??? IDK, just tell me what you think of these bands!
DRAKUL
OK so the first band is called Drakul, at first I was like “lol you left of the ‘A’ dumb dumb– the movie is called DRAKULA” but I guess there was probably already a band called that. They are from Everett, Washington which is like 2 towns away from where I live and has the very first ever Zumiez!. IDK I don’t go there much it is mostly just full of wiggers who listen to Suiside Silence and Eminem while they smoke and wait for the bus to the Everett Mall so it seems weird that there is a ‘BLACK METAL’ band there!
Drakul doing a concert in Seattle! I can’t really tell what is going on but mb that is what they are trying to sound like???
I havent seen one of their concerts yet but I want to go soon! So far I have only heard the songs that they have on Facebook. A lot of the other bands I listen to like Atryu and As I Lay Dying are on Facebook’s, but IDK it just seems kind of weird for a ‘BLACK METAL’ band to be on Facebook to me?? Like didn’t Facebook start for ppl in College?? They’re songs are like “VALLEY OF THE FULL MOON OVER CASINO ROAD” but then they’re all “like us on Facebook and u will be entered to win a free t-shirt” IDK seems weird?? But yeah they are on their and you can check it out here!
Here is a link to their Facebook
FATHER DAGON
There guys are also from my area but they are from Bainbridge Island, which is on the other side of Puget Sound. You have to take a ferry to get there which makes it sort of like weird and stuff (here is a ferry schedule if you need it), so its kind of hard to get there and most people there are kind of weird or rich. They have this thing where they tell you about their band on Facebook and IDK what is all about lol: “Spawned from the dreams of Dark Gods two thousand and ten years after the death of the bastard Nazarene, Father Dagon set out to summon the dark powers that lurk beyond the void with cold, evil black metal.” Ummmm yah ok!! Haha. It sounds like something from the beggining of a Final Fantasy game!!
This is what it looks like where we are from in Washington, my mom is always like “OMG THIS VIEW IS LIKE A POSTCARD HOW DO I TAKE A PICTURE SHOW ME HOW TO USE THIS STUPID CAMERA WHY IS THIS THING SO HARD 2 USE!” when we go there. There are like sea otters that play in the ocean by the dock IDK why someone would start a ‘BLACK METAL’ band when they grow up here lol we don’t have castles or snow!
I can’t really tell if this band is good or not bc it seems like they are ‘trying to be bad’ if that makes any sense?? Like if u listen to FATHER DAGON then Job For Cowboys or Killswitch Enagge it’s kind of funny bc you’re like “OMG these guys sound like they do not even know how to play their drums and guitars!!!!” But you guys were right, I don’t really know that much about like ‘underground metal’ or whatever so maybe they are good but I can’t tell?? I dunno they seem like they are pretty cool guys tho,, thinking about sending them a FB message to see if they want to meet up at the Kitsap Mall or something, mb there is some stuff on my Zune that they would be into?
