darkthrone should give it up. They are a waste of talent. Transilvanian hunger was their last good album. Why do u ppl like this shitty band. They have piss poor production and all their albums sound exactly alike

Darkthrone made many good albums before and after Transilvanian Hunger, and they are all quite different.
As far as the production....I can't stress enough how important the production aspect is to black metal music. So many people fail to understand that the recording isn't "poor" because these guys are just too fucking stupid to make it sound any better - it's recorded like that on purpose; there's a reason for it. It contributes immensely to the overall mood and atmosphere of the music. A polished and crystal clear sound would ruin it.
They're not a waste of talent either. You're approaching this music the wrong way, you're probably expecting epic symphonies and dazzling technical wizardry because more famous "black metal" bands play like that. I'm not going to bother going further into why Darkthrone sound the way they do, I've rambled enough.

As far as the vote, I've got it narrowed down to either Soulside Journey, Goatlord, Transilvanian Hunger or Panzerfaust.
But this is still fucking impossible - Darkthrone are my favorite black metal band, and one of my top favorite bands ever. I can't pick just one.
