I’d rather just give them my money and have a little icon. I don’t like the idea of copying Reddit. Even the upvote/downvote thing is cullable if you ask me. The only thing Reddit-like that I enjoy is the familiar UI.

Agreed.

I don’t think trying to centralize a community that relies on a decentralized platform is a very great idea. I get what you’re going for but I think the little pocket communities add a layer of safety from bad actors.

Thanks for setting this up! Looking forward to having a new community to engage with.

Nice! Thanks for the list!

Hey there. It’s nice to find another community for BM outside of Reddit! I have a project with a record out on Avantgarde: astralpath.bandcamp.com if you care to check it out.

I’m a huge Enslaved fan. I think I’d have to say they’re my favourite black metal band. My friend and I jam along to a fully fleshed out Enslaved cover session in Reaper pretty regularly. He plays drums along to a click in his ears and all the other instruments and vocals are piped out of the PA except for the left channel guitar which I fill in myself. All of this was recorded for fun so we could have multitracks to jam to as we see fit. We have a blast with it.

Has anyone seen the piano & drums cover of Deathspell Omega’s The Repellent Scars of Abandon and Election on Youtube? That might be my favourite BM video of all time.
