I love the mix of dissonance and melody especially on this album. It has moments that are intensely frightening and ominous, and on other moments it seems so beautiful. Its like being inside a huge destructive storm, and one moment you focus on its destruction and the dread it accompanies, and the other moment you appreciate how majestic and beautiful the storm is despite its destructive nature.
These guys are what really pushed Black Metal into another realm. Id say they revolutionalized the genre. There really is no band like DsO. Theyre very tough to get into for newcomers, but once the initial shock goes away, you see just how amazing they are. DsO forever.
Thanks so much for the great reaction! I'm really glad you ended up enjoying it, and I think that was an excellent three-song run that you chose for the video. I also didn't realize until now that you do some acting, very cool!
You wanted to check out there more "challenging" Avant-garde albums I'd recommend "Fas- ite maledicti in ignem aeternum", "chaining the katechon", or "synarchy of molten bones". Funny enough this album is one of their more accessible albums and the "kenose" EP everyone is recommending is much more tamer than paracletus and leans more towards traditional black metal than avant garde music.
I like your approach to this. Here are two Albums that also might do sth for you or your channel. The Body - I've seen all I need to see and Gnaw their tongues - All the dread magnificence of perversity. Have a good one sir.
He always writes more lyrics than he actually uses. But it's kept in for context. DsO are the ultimate musical trolls. They are trolling the listener, pushing the boundaries musically, philosophically and politically to the absolute limits and perhaps beyond...
So far as the band goes, I really enjoyed this - frantic and dissonance really works for me, but the vocals were just painfully average, the dude's better (for me) with the more shouted style than the "scary" Smeagol type delivery, but even then it's nothing special vocally - and that's a shame, because song-wise, this is awesome. You might dig Zeal and Ardor - they're very pop-y/easily accessible for black metal, but I think you'd dig their intent and concept.
@@wallbangerreactions I don't want to belabour the point, but they've done something pretty smart with the Aversarial/Satan concept, that once you hear/see it makes perfect sense and is the perfect antidote to some of the far-right goons in the black metal genre.

That makes sense to me.
This is probably the best introduction you couldve went for. Good job on picking this.
De nada senor.

It only took me four months to put this suggestion on the poll. Thanks for your patience.
@@wallbangerreactions Thank YOU for reacting.
Nice stuff
Gracias

You are welcome. And, yes, I have done a bunch of acting here in Mexico. About a dozen or more productions. Take care.
I'm glad I found this video, great reaction!
Thank you!! 😁

Appreciate the suggestions.
Rock on Man!
Definitely.
You might want to listen Kénôse EP by them. It's a 3 track record and probably their magnum opus and best drumming I have ever heard.
Thanks for the recommendation.

The Body - I've seen all I need to see and
Gnaw their tongues - All the dread magnificence of perversity.
Have a good one sir.
The Body is excellent.
Thanks Funperson. I made an entry on my spreadsheet for a future community poll.
KENOSE KENOSE KENOSE KENOSE!!!!
36 minutes?? That would put me to the test.
@@wallbangerreactions At the ,minimum, you could just do Kenose I. It's one of the tracks and imo the best one!

Interesting. Thanks for the comment and for watching.

@@wulfgold Glad someone else has picked up on this.
Interesting. Personally, these are my fav vocals of all time haha. Its like, not too aggressive, but so ominous, it sounds like satan himself.
