I've never been the biggest Darkthrone fan TBH. Give me Venom and Bathory over Darkthrone and Mayhem any day. So their newer ultra old school sound is actually my favorite incarnation of their music. I just love how they seem to be giving all their fans and the countless bands ripping them off the finger and have decided that the best way to show their superiority is to go from taking themselves completely seriously and making totally unlistenable music to not taking themselves seriously at all and making music that's actually catchy and (almost) accessible. Darkthrone - 1, Everyone Else - 0.
