Artuma: Top 10 Agalloch Songs

Artuma 07.09.14	sry guys no odal :[ discuss here instead of the serpent thread ffs
Hawks 07.09.14	Needs more Dead Winter Days and As Embers Dress the Sky, but still great list. m/
Artuma 07.09.14	i'm not as much into pf as a lot of users seem to be but those songs rule too. thanks m/
TalonsOfFire 07.09.14	For me 9 is 1, 1 is 2, and 7 is 3 but still sweet list
Hawks 07.09.14	Pale Folklore is my fav Agalloch so that might explain it. :p
Artuma 07.09.14	9 was my first fave agalloch song but in a long run these 8 epics top it
Hawks 07.09.14	9 has been my fav Agalloch song since I first got into them tbh.
ti0n 07.09.14	approved
Mongi123 07.09.14	ODAL! Anyway, yes 1 is 1. What a goddamn masterpiece.
Artuma 07.09.14	@hawks it's a superb and pretty catchy song yeah
TalonsOfFire 07.09.14	Yeah I just got into this band a few months ago so my opinion'll probably change, I just love the last third of Falling Snow, it tops everything else for me currently
Artuma 07.09.14	@talons how much do you like 2?
Mongi123 07.09.14	I reeeeeeally love The Lodge. It's all about the deer skull :D
Artuma 07.09.14	the lodge is awesome but probably the weakest song on the mantle
TalonsOfFire 07.09.14	I love 2, my fav on ashes after the first two and probably top 10 of theirs
Artuma 07.09.14	sweet, i think you still have some hope with your taste :]]
Keyblade 07.09.14	Uh dude, Fire Above, Ice Below?
Artuma 07.09.14	it's def top 15
Atari 07.09.14	sweet. glad to see she painted fire across the skyline in top 5
Keyblade 07.09.14	Bloodbirds? Those are my 2 favorite tracks on Ashes lol :'[
Atari 07.09.14	needs more the white tho :3
KingdomOfTyrant 07.09.14	no bloodbirds lol
climactic 07.09.14	top 2 is yes
KingdomOfTyrant 07.09.14	bloodbirds is 1
Artuma 07.09.14	yeah the white rules. these 10 songs tho
climactic 07.09.14	SOLSTAFIR!!!!!!
Artuma 07.09.14	@key and kingdom bloodbirds is only one part of a song, and overall that song is the one that keeps me not 5'ing ashes
Artuma 07.09.14	SOLSTAFIR!!!!!! [2] best agalloch vox moment ever
climactic 07.09.14	that song is such a jam, i thought i was the only one who liked it the best on ashes. that heavy riff at the beginning gets me every time
Artuma 07.09.14	yeah and the moment when the vox come in is completely unreal... or so you'd think until solstafir makes everything else sound flat out gay
Muisc4Life26 07.09.14	fantastic list!
Artuma 07.09.14	thanks :]
YoYoMancuso 07.09.14	1 is 1 7 is 2 The Hawthorne Passage is 3
Artuma 07.09.14	hawthorne passage was another early fave song for me. the first half of it is ridiculously fun, but the second half drags a bit
KriegdemKriege 07.09.14	Correct list is the tracklisting of the Mantle plus Falling Snow.
YoYoMancuso 07.09.14	second half is the best part man, The Seventh Seal sample sends chills down my spine and that happens again when the winds come in
Artuma 07.09.14	@krieg fucking hell no even tho mantle is easily my fave album
Artuma 07.09.14	"second half is the best part man, The Seventh Seal sample sends chills down my spine and that happens again when the winds come in" it's fantastic agreed but it's just a tad too long
Gameofmetal 07.09.14	I'm getting ready to check out Agalloch for the first time. Starting with Marrow of the Spirit.
TalonsOfFire 07.09.14	While I love 5 I actually prefer every other track on PF for some reason
Artuma 07.09.14	@gameofmetal marrow is an odd one to start with but i think you'll love it
Gameofmetal 07.09.14	I always did have the luck of picking the odd albums when finding bands but it usually works out.
Artuma 07.09.14	just let me know your thoughts on marrow when you've finished
Gameofmetal 07.09.14	Will do.
RadioSuicide 07.09.14	Hawthorne is easily top 5 but good list.
Gameofmetal 07.09.14	Artuma I'm only a little ways in, on Into The Painted Gray but it sounds very cool so far.
Artuma 07.09.14	"no fire above ice below? is this some sort of fucking joke?" less of a joke than you
InFlamesWeThrash666 07.09.14	1 is definetely 1 ...5 is in my top three though
Artuma 07.09.14	@gameofmetal cool, just wait for black lake, it's so goddamn epic
JohnnyoftheWell 07.09.14	The Melancholy Spirit, You Were But a Ghost in my Arms, The Watcher's Monolith! Otherwise, approved
Artuma 07.09.14	dude i have you were but a ghost on here the melancholy spirit is prob my 2nd favorite song on pf and the watcher's monolith is 3rd for marrow so they missed this list with a minimal margin
JohnnyoftheWell 07.09.14	I'm an idiot :P I see, fair enough...you can't really go wrong with Agalloch (even The Serpent was solid enough)
Artuma 07.09.14	serpent was kinda lackluster on agalloch standards but then again it's agalloch so how could it possibly not be great
pedro70512 07.09.14	I Am the Wooden Doors is my #1. I absolutely love that song.
Gameofmetal 07.10.14	Artuma very much enjoying Marrow of the Spirit. Black Lake was indeed epic. Now an Agalloch fan for sure.
Artuma 07.10.14	good boy :]
Amphoteric 07.10.14	1 will always be 1
Artuma 07.10.14	once 1 always 1
Amphoteric 07.10.14	Well actually it's tied with Embers imo, idk which I would truly rank 1 out of those.
Artuma 07.10.14	dunno man, embers never hit me like that
Amphoteric 07.10.14	That acoustic break with the clean guitar solo is only the greatest thing ever written in the history of music.
pedro70512 07.10.14	Bro do u even music? There's so much better shit out there. Why r all metalheads so narrow-minded and think they're angry shit is tha best? Beethoven, Wagner, Mozart, come on.
Artuma 07.10.14	edgy one, pos'd
Amphoteric 07.10.14	Troll on, brotha
climactic 07.10.14	1 is 1 eternally
Artuma 07.10.14	@fut i know it's your 1st sputversary aka the princess day but no
Amphoteric 07.10.14	That comment was in reference to Pedro
BigPleb 07.10.14	agreed futures, they really aren't.
climactic 07.10.14	agalloch is angry as fuq
climactic 07.10.14	also i dont agree with pleb but i do think this band is overrated HARD, ashes and maybe the mantle are their only albums worth a 4+
Artuma 07.10.14	one does not simply dislike this band, can you see it pleb? :]
pedro70512 07.10.14	Seriously though, I actually don't like typical "angry" stuff. Five Finger Death Punch is my go-to comparison because they're excellent musicians but the music has a 16-year-old mentality focused on giving The Man the finger and stuff. The Mantle is a sentimental 5 for me. Probably more a 4.5 because the second half isn't as good as the first.
BigPleb 07.10.14	Ashes is good but the rest SUCK, hear me Finland boy?! SUCK!!!!!!!
pedro70512 07.10.14	It's like they tried to be Saor and failed, man.
Artuma 07.10.14	saor released their debut last year didn't they?
Amphoteric 07.10.14	"Seriously though, I actually don't like typical "angry" stuff. Five Finger Death Punch is my go-to comparison because they're excellent musicians but the music has a 16-year-old mentality focused on giving The Man the finger and stuff." Same reason I hate Phil Anselmo and similar vocalists/bands like Pantera.
Artuma 07.10.14	hi pleb how you doing? :] do you know the band agalloch? they're great
pedro70512 07.10.14	"saor released their debut last year didn't they?" yep and it was pretty sweet.
TalonsOfFire 07.10.14	Agalloch is barely black metal they have some mild characteristics but they almost never do blast beats, screamed vocals, tremolo guitarwork, or screaming vocals. The music is never even that aggressive, it's more atmospheric. Can't really compare them to bands like saor or the great old ones
Artuma 07.10.14	dunno if you talked about mantle or ashes but they were released waaay before saor so "they tried to be Saor" makes quite little sense
Artuma 07.10.14	ok talons it's nice that you figured that out
Crysis 07.10.14	disagree with several choices and don't agree with the ranking of them at all into the painted grey is terrible
Crysis 07.10.14	also where is "as embers dress the sky"
Amphoteric 07.10.14	also where is "as embers dress the sky" [âˆž]
Artuma 07.10.14	not on the list
BigPleb 07.10.14	god you're moody
Crysis 07.10.14	then apparently this isn't the top 10 agalloch songs
TalonsOfFire 07.10.14	I was just clarifying for these gonks who keep saying that new saor is better and nonsense like that
Artuma 07.10.14	then apparently my opinion differs from yours cool seriously tho i think marrow > pf i know it makes you cringe crysis
TalonsOfFire 07.11.14	I haven't heard more extreme reactions to an album than marrow maybe I should hear it
pedro70512 07.11.14	Marrow was pretty good. The climaxes could have had more oomph and Dekker's drumming is a little shaky but overall it's worth having in your collection.
R6Rider 07.11.14	I know it's a hard list to make, but no Fire Above, Ice Below? damn
Artuma 07.11.14	jesus guys are you still asking for that song?
Artuma 07.11.14	list defines justice now stop
Nud 07.11.14	Needs more folklore
TalonsOfFire 07.11.14	Finally listening to Marrow for the first time, 8 rules
DrGonzo1937 07.12.14	I approve
Artuma 07.12.14	gd
Arnaud 08.23.14	1 is 1 eternally [2]
