Why was the first wave of black metal so much better than the second wave?

This chart is fucking terrible lmfao. Listen to more music

>and for the record I like all music except rap
based boomer

everything here disqualifies you from posting about black metal ever again except maybe Transylvanian Hunger

>Belus
Of all fucking burzum albums why do you choose this one. Trying too hard to be contrarian while also simultaneously being a pleb.
>sunbather
>igorrr
>poppy
>lil darkie
Absolute garbage taste. This feels like something that someone would make and post in the catalog to bait people but it's real and you're an elitist tripfag with below average music taste.

>pulse demon
You dont actually enjoy this album, you just fell for the meme.

You're wrong, considering most people these days start off with black metal and never check out anything before. Trad,NWOBHM, and thrash are all unironically more underground than black metal these days and have been for about a decade, it's pretty funny to witness but that's what happens when something becomes "hip". SJWs even pretend to love Burzum, that's how fucking hip black metal is now.

I gotta at least respect user for still holding onto the whole "pretending Pulse Demon is one of my favorite albums" trope from wannabe music elitists. I feel like that spot has been replaced recently by Daughter of Darkness. I've seen that record on so many zoomers' charts alongside shit like Tyler The Creator lately and I do not believe a single one of them has ever listened to it. Seeing Merzbow was a nice throwback

>you just brought them up to prove a point as if you're more well versed the in the genre than everyone else
wrong. I would never claim that. look at the context. the dude was acting like I knew nothing about the genre. you don't have to listen to obscure artists to know what black metal sounds like.
>when in reality your taste is pretty stock standard
im not under any illusions that these aren't a lot of the first albums the average person finds as they get into the genre of metal
that album rocks faggot
>Listen to more music
what do you think im doing??
faggot
>Trying too hard to be contrarian
I just like the album Belus actually. songs like glemselens elv are so mesmerizing
>You dont actually enjoy this album, you just fell for the meme.
actually I just enjoy listening to pulse demon. I would never claim it has much artistic merit though. I don't care enough to find out more about other noise music, I just listen to pulse demon(usually in the background) when I'm in the mood.
>considering most people these days start off with black metal and never check out anything before
you're just making shit up. this is simply not true of anyone I know in real life that listens to extreme metal.

the only reason you people think that I think my taste is better than yours is some weird projection or something.
I literally just said OP did not post black metal and called some people faggots and suggested suicide along the way. I suggested that OP got filtered by extreme metal and called him a diapershitter, but that simply does not make me an elitist. I don't think my music is better, I just think its good. OP clearly isn't able to appreciate black metal and thats gay and retarded. multiple other people in this thread said similar things about how maybe he just prefers thrash, those albums are thrash, etc, which is what I was saying albeit in a more venomous way.

Idk who they think they're fooling by putting harsh noise and dark ambient albums next to the most mainstream and mundane shit like Tyler the creator or the strokes.
Along with daughters of darkness I've also seen "le creepy dementia record xD"
come up a lot in tourists charts. The age old habit of putting something you'll never listen to on your chart for indie clout continues. And that's sadder than any form of elitism or gatekeeping desu

>he couldn't possibly listen to more than one genre of music. thats impossible
really dumb accusation. if I cared about what you people thought of me I wouldn't post a chart under a tripcode. I already knew more or less what was going to be said about the chart when I posted it.
also where did your mention of the strokes come from? no strokes album to be found on that chart. I listened to one strokes album and it was ok at best

Caretaker I can MAYBE buy a little more consider that it has a whole meme around it so a lot of zoomers probably have listened to it just to say they have. There is nothing like that surrounding Daughter of Darkness. It's just a 6 hour long drone album from 10 years ago. Even drone fans probably haven't listened to that album more than a few times in their life
