We're gonna double down today and do a band and song that start with Q. An 8 minute song no less.
For the last few years I've managed to pull a band out of the air by using the almighty Google. "Bands that start with..." filling in with the weird letters was my most searched stuff in the month of April last year.
I'll be honest though, I've got no clue about who this band is. They're a Black Metal act that were formed in the US, so that's a little bit of a fun thing. I would say it's cool that they managed to take off, but seeing as a misfiling of some work by Bach is overriding any of their song's plays they are clearly the most underground band I'm going to share this month.Of course, if you're a real Black Metal fan you'll know that the more underground a band is the better they are. If they have digital distribution, they're too popular. If they have CDs they're too popular. They're borderline too popular if they have cassettes. If you aren't listening to the band in a Norwegian ice cave off a gramophone, you're probably a poser.
Luckily for me, I'm totally a Black Metal poser and am fine with listening to them online and stuff. I'll be honest, there's some people that get legitimately angry when people try to bring attention to underground bands. The Black Metal (and generally the Metal community to a lesser extent) get really worked up about for some reason.
I suppose this post is way more about people overreacting in BM culture than anything else, but that's ok. Now you know, eh?
You can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+, or even sponsor me on Patreon. No big, do whatever. But yeah, Twitter and Facebook are where I’m most active.
