    Darkthrone is no where close to being the 'originator' of Black Metal. First Wave Black Metal bands such as Venom, Bathory, Celtic Frost and Hellhammer are the originators. Fenriz merely forged a more refined sound to the music.

    There were prototypical heavy metal bands/songs before Black Sabbath. Helter Skelter by the Beatles is commonly referenced there. Mayhem probably were the tipping point for black metal being its own sound, but even Deathcrush wasn't there yet. Darkthrone came in with "black metal" a few years later once they'd given up their death metal sound to be more primitive, but by that point every other Norwegian metalhead was ready to jump on the bandwagon, so to speak.

    saying "black metal has nothing to do with satanism" is pretty silly. Sure it's not the goal of the movement and it can be argued it never was (if there ever was such a thing as a "goal", which I would argue there wasn't), but a ton of bands embrace satanism and "satanic" imagery is probably one of the most essential parts of black metal.

    compression is a really interesting topic, and one that most metal heads don't understand. notice how every cd since 1995 seems louder? when they remaster a classic from the 80's or early 90's.... all they do is compress the fuck out of it and make it louder. they KILL the dynamics!!! there are no quiet parts... just loud loud loud... a brick wall of sound. that's fine if you want to mix it that way (e.g. Transylvanian Hunger) but mastering shouldn't squash the shit out of the recording. nice to hear that Fenriz is across it.

    Coldacre; First of all, in the mastering process, It's very common for mastering engineers to use multiband compression. It doesnt CHANGE the level of your song, thats what LIMITING AND NORMALIZING does, which is apart of the mastering process. You also have to understand that the reason shit has gotten louder over the years is due to demand at radio stations. once you give the radio station the final version of the song, they are going alter the wave forms, etc in order for the level to be correct for it to be broadcasted. Thats completely out of the hands of mixing and mastering engineers. Again, compression is extremely important woth recording, mixing, and mastering. The fact that you are confused about compression and limiting on tje mastering process tells me you know nothing about compression. Compression doesnt make shit louder. When you properly compress something, you attenuate the peaks of what youre compressing whilst bringing up the softer parts. It's all about dynamic control, not level adjustment. compression doesnt make shit louder, lol.

    I think "easy to listen to" is due to the more groove-centric nature of Darkthrone. It's lineage is very Celtic Frost-y, the atmospheric stuff from Burzum for example can put people off I think.

    "The cool dude at the bar that knows everyone" of metal. Love his thoughts on drum sounds and production. Early Black Sabbath had the perfect production, heavy and sinister with a great dynamic range, lot of breathing room. A lot of drum sounds in metal today don't even sound like drums, kinda takes some of the energy out of it for me.

    I like BM. I wouldn't say I am a huge fan of it but I love Fenriz. What he says at the end about primitivism and compression is dead on right! Not just about BM, or metal or even just music. About modern life itself! As a metaphor. Modern needs chopping off the highs and lows and making everything mid just to satisfy the needs of modern formats. Fuck that. That is why things like primitive art is more important now than it ever has been. We are human with natural highs and lows and don't forget that!
