Gorgoroth - Pentagram

Some Personal Thoughts I'm just simply not a fan of technical or progressive music. I just can't help but feel that it's all pretentious. Every type of music has it's market. And I suspect that progressive market caters towards people that want to feel smart or enlightened for listening to music that's technical or progressive. They enjoy flattering themselves for being open-minded, deep-thinking, and totally knowledgeable about stuff. Totally radical, dude. I'm not impressed by  people's musical taste. There's no reason to believe that Motorhead fans are any less intelligent than Dream Theater fans. I enjoy listening to Motorhead. I generally avoid Dream Theater. Gorgoroth, and particularly this album, is not the type of band that will flatter your sense of open-mindedness. Lyrics are not provided, but the song titles give away what the topics are about. None of them are going to make you feel more enlightened. There are no odd-timed sign
