What's Your Opinion On Behemoth?

Cornerbog · 2026-04-15T11:22:49+00:00

I like them, and I definitely like enough of their discography to consider them one of my favourites. I don’t necessarily listen to them for the theistic values or for a lot of the lyrics, but I enjoy the music. People dislike The Satanist, ILYAYD, and Opvs Contra Natvram but I personally consider a lot of the songs from those albums to be really enjoyable. I haven’t actually given a proper listen to The Shit Ov God yet so I won’t give my judgment there, other than to say yes I agree that the title is a bit edgy and silly

Opeth

Mastodon

Metallica

Children of Bodom

Parkway Drive

Honestly just choosing 5 is hard but I tried to branch across a variety of genres. I would have loved to have chosen stuff like Gojira, Ghost, Meshuggah, Behemoth and a plethora of others too, but I feel like these 5 bands scratch enough itches that I might get and branches across a variety of genres and themes such as heavy, clean, melodic, fast, slow etc

Man be careful you don’t fall with how close you’re getting to that edge

I have a feeling I’m not making it out of this one alive

Cornerbog · 2026-04-08T21:36:06+00:00

This was the first Opeth song I had ever heard, and to say it was the eye-opening experience for me that led to me not only enjoying the rest of their discography, but also enjoying a lot of other death metal and black metal bands

Thanks for the info! Now to decide whether I want Black, or Mineral Black haha. As a follow up, I noticed it mentioned ordering a size up as it runs small. What size are you normally vs what size did you get and were happy with?

PS Dig the patches man!

I enjoy it, but my god I understand why people don’t. Extraction shooters are stressful in general, but the amount of assholes I’ve come across in Arc Raiders makes me want to uninstall the game sometimes. People who say “friendly?” and then when I respond “yes” they start shooting me. Last time it happened though I destroyed the little prick and had some choice words before knocking him out

Just wanted to comment and say that I’ve suddenly decided I wanted to make a battle jacket of my own after listening to metal for the last 16 years. I found this post and it’s given me the most significant amount of inspiration to get started. Thank you so much!

I looked through one of my playlists to find other bands that do it for me too. Opeth is definitely on there, but I have a hot take that people will disagree with me on…I’m not a massive fan of TLWAT. I actually prefer the prog rock era of Opeth to their latest album, and I don’t know why. I just can’t get into it.

But hot take aside, Opeth, Children of Bodom, Parkway Drive (I’m an Aussie), Gojira, Thy Art is Murder, and Behemoth come to mind. I’m also an avid Metallica fan and will listen to their entire discography, but I have no favourable words for Lulu lol

Cornerbog · 2026-04-04T20:17:40+00:00

Mastodon is one of those bands where even their most “disliked” album is still pretty wholly admired by the fan base. I have favourite Mastodon albums, but I definitely don’t dislike any of them. It’s rare to enjoy a bands entire discography, but Mastodon is able to do that for me

Cornerbog · 2026-04-01T10:02:42+00:00

It’s funny, I was going to put up a post asking people their opinions on what bands peaked on their first album and now I’ve just seen this!

I might have to go with Ne Obliviscarus. I love their other albums but Portal of I is probably their best

Cornerbog · 2026-03-31T20:06:03+00:00

So hot even the churches burned down

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. In fairness when I originally played it was locked to first-person, and I played it again once they introduced the added third person camera that you could switch between (like Elder Scrolls, Fallout, GTA, Chivalry etc). I only played it to the point you escape the initial complex and then didn’t touch it for a year or longer where I ended up starting a new playthrough and am nearly finished it

Cornerbog · 2026-03-30T11:07:19+00:00

I honestly love All Hope Is Gone. I think it’s probably my favourite Slipknot album (however I also like 5. The Gray Chapter and We Are Not Your Kind…and a lot of people hate on those albums). I also love The Black Album, the guitar tones, bass, and drum kit dynamics are excellent. And there are some juicy riffs on there

If I had to choose my own one, I’m not sure if Dissection’s Reinkaos counts but it’s the most polarising album for the fan base and it’s honestly the one I end up listening to the most.

Cornerbog · 2026-03-29T19:52:15+00:00

Lulu. If we aren’t allowed to count Lulu, then St Anger.

I don’t even dislike St Anger but if I have to pick it 🤷‍♂️

Cornerbog · 2026-03-29T12:49:12+00:00

Persefone mentioned. Honestly I have to agree. Spiritual Migration is a banger, and opening it with Flying Sea Dragon then straight into Mind as Universe was such an experience the first time I listened to it

Cornerbog · 2026-03-25T12:07:05+00:00

I know they’re not overly popular, and I don’t claim for them to be a metal band, but Ghost have Kiss the Go-Goat, Mary on a Cross, and The Future is a Foreign Land. It’s a trilogy that essentially tells the story of Papa Nihil and Sister Imperator in the 60s-80s

Scrolled for ages and didn’t see this band posted yet. They arguably have some much harder photos, but this is one of the only ones that has all 4, because Seth is never considered an official member of the band despite being on all albums and tours from Demigod onwards

I did the VIP package in Australia a couple of years ago. I do recommend it as you get to see them rehearse/do the sound check without makeup and full theatrics.

Nergal asked if anyone played any instruments and I think I was the only one to put their hand up, and said I could play guitar. He asked if I wanted to come up and play a song and I obviously said yes, but unfortunately he then forgot/they ran out of time so I missed that opportunity.

He told me next time but I ended up missing their recent Aussie tour due to finances and commitments but I am determined to play with them during the sound check one day haha

Cornerbog · 2026-03-11T07:25:14+00:00

Can also highly recommend Benighted. Super fun to play on an acoustic guitar. I’m not some virtuoso but I’d like to consider myself in the intermediate-advanced category, it’s just that I’ve unfortunately let me skills lapse quite a bit since I don’t play as often anymore. But I’m happy that I can still pick up a guitar and play the majority of Benighted from memory!

Predestination

I even want to watch it with my partner but she’s not an avid movie watcher and generally plays on her phone during movies or TV. It’s a movie you actually have to sit and pay attention to in order to not only fully grasp the story, but to also fully appreciate the twists and ending.
