1. How did you get into 29?
Lamb of God
It was a long time ago when I first started listening to "extreme metal". I think a friend recommended them.
2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
Kalmah
I think it was a song off
The Black Waltz, but I didn't like it. I didn't start liking them until I heard
Swamplord way later.
3. What’s your favorite lyric by 33?
Emperor
Probably those from the song
With Strength I Burn
4. What is your favorite album by 49?
Helheim
Hard one, but I'm probably going to have to go with
Av Norrøn Ætt, but the two previous ones are excellent as well
5. How many albums by 13 do you have?
Mörk Gryning
All the full-lengths <3
6. What is your favorite song by 50?
Falkenbach
Well I have to say
Heathen Foray but there are alot of underrated Falkenbach songs as well.
7. Is there a song by 39 that makes you sad?
Gorgoroth
Hardly. Gorgoroth aren't known for having sappy songs, I'll tell you that.
8. What is your favorite album by 15?
Dismember
Now this is a hard one. I'm torn between
Like An Everflowing Stream,
Indecent And Obscene and
Dismember.
9. What is your favorite song by 5?
Amon Amarth
I think that
Victorious March is their best, but really anything off
Once Sent From the Golden Hall could qualify.
10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy?
Bathory
That would be
Ring of Gold, because it is quite beautiful. R.I.P Quorthon
11. What is your favorite album by 40?
Folkearth
By the Sword of My Father, no contest.
12. What is your favorite song by 10?
In Flames
There are some really good ones from the early days. I'm thinking either
Starforsaken,
Behind Space or
Biosphere.
13. What is a good memory you have involving 30?
At the Gates
The first time I heard them and specifically the compilation
Suicidal Final Art when I was just getting into melodeath, I sat spellbound throughout the first part (songs from the first two full lengths).
14. What is your favorite song by 38?
Mastodon
March of the Fire Ants. The only song I know about an invasive species hah!
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Entombed
Well there are a few songs that have funny lyrics.
That's When I Became a Satanist always brings a smile to my face. And while we're on the environmental topic,
When it Hits Home is fucking righteous!
16. How many times have you seen 25 live?
Einherjer
I wish I could have.
17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23?
Týr
I youtube'd them and found the official video for
Regin Smiður and I was hooked.
18. What is your favorite album by 11?
Dissection
There are two albums I would rate 100%,
The Somberlain and
Storm of the Light's Bane R.I.P Jon.
19. Who is a favorite member of 2?
Dark Tranquillity
Well it would have to be Mikael Stanne now, wouldn't it? It was awesome hanging with him at the Dismember show i Gothenburg. \m/
20. Have you ever seen 14 live?
Darkthrone
Have they ever even played live? I think they might have a few times in their early career, when I was like 4, so no.
21. What is a good memory involving 21?
Soilwork
That would be when I met them after the concert in Florida and hung out with them for two hours in their tour bus. Björn kan make one hell of a Margherita! Although truth be told I don't listen to them very much any more, only their old stuff is worthwile imo.
22. What is your favorite song by 16?
Windir
Hard choise here, but
Svartesmeden og Lundamyrstrollet is certainly a good candidate. R.I.P Valfar!
23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47?
Twin Obscenity
Dark Millenium's End
24. What is your favorite album by 18?
Thyrfing
I think
Valdr Galga takes all prizes here, but the earlier ones are excellent as well.
25. What is your favorite song by 27?
Summoning
March of the Grey Company wins this one, although
Let Mortal Heroes Sing Your Fame is prob my favorite Summoning album as a whole.
26. What is the first song you ever heard by 26?
Hate Eternal
Behold Judas no doubt, I really liked Hate Eternal intensively a while and then I had enough.
28. What is you favorite song by 1?
Enslaved
Ahh, jeez. There's hardly one song that overtakes all the others. But I guess the longer their songs are the more greatness they contain. Therefore this one is a tie between
Større Enn Tid - Tyngre Enn Natt and
793 (Slaget om Lindisfarne)
29. What was the first song you ever heard by 44?
Iskald
Warriors of the Northern Twilight
30. What is your favorite song by 8?
Finntroll
Skogens hämnd probably, but I haven't listened to them in a while. Runners up are
Slaget vid blodsälv,
Grottans Barn,
Asfågelns Död... solid band overall.
31. How many times have you seen 17 live?
Moonsorrow
Never unfortunately, although their songs are so long it might be kind of odd in concert like when I saw Opeth, pretty short list of songs they have time to play.
32. Is there a song by 32 that makes you happy?
Korpiklaani
Haha yes there is!
Happy Little Boozer probably most so, but any of their drinking song are fun.
33. What is your favorite album by 12?
Taake
This is a hard one. All the full lengths are awesome, maybe
Hordalands doedskvad has the edge over the others though.
34. What is the worst song by 45?
Strapping Young Lad
I don't care much for either City or Alien albumwize so probably a song off of one of them.
35. What was the first song you ever heard by 34?
Månegarm
Unknown, first time I heard them I didn't like them and thus didn't remember what song I heard. But when I heard their newer stuff I started to like them alot.
Vargstenen!
36. What is your favorite album by 48?
The Duskfall
The Frail absolutely. They're all very good though, just that every song on The Frail is incredible.
37. How many times have you seen 42 live?
Diabolical Masquerade
Again, another artist I've never even heard of touring. Probably hasn't and as such, no. Besides, I really only like
Ravendusk in My Heart...
38. What is your favorite song by 36?
Arch Enemy
Black Earth, which coincidentally is the best album even though that song is not on it.
39. What was the first song you ever heard by 28?
Bloodbath
Mass Strangulation !!!
40. What is your favorite album by 7?
Opeth
Ouch, this is hard. I've got five favorites!
Orchid,
Morningrise,
My Arms Your Hearse,
Still Life and
Black Water Park. I guess I have to go with the first one.
41. Is there a song by 31 that makes you happy?
Gehenna
What is with all this happiness??? I guess
A Witch Is Born brings a malicious smile to my face.
42. What is your favorite album by 41?
Ensiferum
Ensiferum, yup folks, self titled takes this one easily
43. What is your favorite song by 24?
Insomnium
I suppose I could choose
Shades of Deep Green, because of its uniqueness in their discography.
44. What is a good memory you have involving 46?
Ivenberg
First time I listened through
Leben heisst Sterben, quite a headbanger of an album imo.
45. What is your favorite song by 35?
KromleK
Träskens näve, I really like the lyrics for one.
46. Is there a song by 9 that makes you happy?
Kataklysm
Nope, not happy music.
47. What is your favorite album by 4?
Hypocrisy
I really like the new one (
A Taste Of Extreme Divinity) alot, and also
Virus. But I think
The Final Chapter might still take the prize here.
48. Who is a favorite member of 37?
Dimmu Borgir
Don't really have a favorite member, actually I don't even know what they're doing in my top 50.
For all tid and
Stormblåst are good albums though.
49. What is the first song you ever heard by 43?
Hatesphere
Murderous Intent. The Killing EP is my first and favorite release of them.
50. How many albums do you have by 20?
Scar Symmetry
All of them, but I have yet to listen to the new one.
