I like that he mentioned listening to their music alone with headphones. I've went on some plesant "journeys" doing that. Nothing like relaxing to atmospheric music alone with headphones before sleep.
Listening to music through headphones in bed is always a great thing to do. But with some bands it's just a bit more special. wittr is definetely one of em!
This band is amazing, unic style... The atmospher is deep, pure, the riffing are absolut impressive ! On show is fantastic, the band is cool, simple atitude not a posers or superficial. Wolves In The Throne Room thanks for your travel in my mind...
I grew up in Olympia, WA in the forest. Its very eerie and dark. Even on sunny days it is dark because of how intensely thick the forest is. Its so thick its almost impossible to walk through it. I remember we used to dare each other as kids to run into the woods at night and stay there for a certain amount of time. it was terrifying
I lived in the Olympic National Forest for 6-months. Picked that area specifically because of what you said - the forest is so thick, you can easily disappear "off the grid". Definitely experienced lots of unexplainable phenomena during those 6-months..
I love how he plays black metal and mentions Nirvana.. To me...that sells me on him alone..plus David Lynch.. Twin Peaks kicks ass..I wish every black metal band had this attitude..
Cascadian Black Metal is a region. Not a specific flavor. Could be atmospheric, satanic, occultic, nature, etc. Regardless there's vibe to the sound that's noticeably different to that of our European friends across the pond. Which I think is fuckin cool. Being unable to really be apart of the Euro scene spawned adaptations to the genre that fit our environment, and thus a new sound within black metal. No one can deny the influence nature has even in traditional black metal. I find comparing the differences in sound between the two very similar-but-different environments to be fascinating
Aye, I’m aware in the cascadian mountain region. I wasn’t until a couple of years ago. In those terms it’s much like Norwegian black metal which really doesn’t define bands’ style - just the region. It just so happens that many Cascadian bm bands are more soothing and atmospheric, and nature-related, not really satanic akin to Dark Funeral or violent such as Marduk.
@@danielpinheiro6375 I have never been such a very big fan of Leviathan, but yeah, Leviathan (along with Xasthur) is one of the biggest american bands to experiment with the so called DSBM subgenre of black metal. Also one of the defining bands of the Third Wave of black metal bands.
I met one of the guys from wolves of the throne room when they toured with Enslaved, and I met all the guys from Enslaved too and got a picture with the singer. I was starstruck when I met them all 🤘🤘
This is a great interview for me to watch. I lived a few years in Finland and now I am living in Seattle. I have gotten very into black and death metal since I moved here to Washington. There is definitely something special about the nature surrounding the cities in Washington. There are definitely bands from Washington that capture the feeling of this place.
Thank you. I wanted to do a new interview with these guys this year at Inferno, where they played, but they never replied to my email, so ofc it didn't happen. I wish to visit Seattle some year to feel that Cascadian thing while sipping my Starbucks and visiting the space needle.
Great interview,I have always overlooked this band,but I will check out some of their stuff.I overlooked a lot of American black metal.I always liked Black Funeral,and Ceremonial Castings is a great band from the US..
I'm the same way...ignored US bands for the most part (maybe because I'm from the US and most of the legends of BM aren't from here). Started with Leviathan so far and planning to start Inquisiton's discography (thanks to Jerry's interviews).
Watched this interview ages ago but I decided to rewatch it alongside a couple other Jerry interviews. I really adore Diadem of 12 Stars and I think Two Hunters is great too when it comes to WITTR's production. The set up of this interview being done outside was very interesting and I enjoyed Nathan's personality bouncing off nicely from Jerry. Good work!
Lots off negative comments here. Wolves in the throne room , Grima, Caladon brood, Son of the sleepless are the only real black metal type off bands I really listen to these days that are modern. WITR are brilliant IMO and awesome sounding live 👍😊
Thanks Rauta, another great interview. I was brought here by Primordial Arcana... still trying to find some downtime to listen to it without interruptions from the family!!
@@RautaMetal Celestial Lineage and Celestite as underappreciated as they are in the WITTR catalogue compared to previous releases straightened out the Weakling comparisons.
Came back to watch this interview again. They're going to be at Fire In The Mountains Festival. I want that new album so badly :( go back to the woods quickly!
Nice interview. I like everything up to and including Celestial lineage. People can hate on them all they want. Wiitr walk the walk unlike lots of other bands. You really can't compare these guys to Deafheaven and the likes.
@@robr2303 I know man... It so happens that some hipster community took a taste for them, and then all elitists decided to hate on them. There is nothing more poser than to choose one's musical taste on basis like that.
So much butthurt in the comments.. I've listened to some songs by Wolves in the Throne Room, it's an ok band, just not really my cup of tea. Still can't understand why so many black metal people preach about freedom of speech when talking about NSBM, yet when bands like WITTR are being mentioned they sound like religious fanatics whose prophet has been insulted. That's just fucking ridiculous IMO.
It is such a paradox that the people that want politics out of music are the same people that want to bring it up all the time in discussions and not in their songs/art for the listeners to articulate the message personally for themselves, but instead interrogate bands that may have a left leaning world view. (ex: Rage Against The Machine did spoke about politics in their music and only talked about it when asked in interviews. Big difference). There will always be politics in the arts and that is just reality. Bands that have right-leaning views complain about not bringing up politics like this because they know if they did the same thing, it makes them come off like assholes... Seriously, how can you make a song about how great Austerity can be for any economy (when it historically hasn't been in any country) or a song about exploiting the labor of workers listenable? It would not work. If there are songs like this out there, they are not serious and are trolling pink-haired college liberals that would hilariously get triggered easily by this obvious scheme... But those that read and see the bullshit right away know how to counter these pranks with constructive arguments. If black metal is truly "misanthropic" and uber-individualistic as it likes to showcase itself to be, then these artists should walk their talk and NOT release their music to the public. In other words, these "kvlt" bands and their fans don't really believe the values that they state to the media or their inner circles online. So logically right wing black metal bands you know publicly are not true misanthropes and uber-individualistic. They're just trying to be edgy. This guy from WITTR was being diplomatic as he can to Rauta's hawkish questions, but at the same time maybe Rauta was presenting how certain black metal bases feel about bands like WITTR and wanted this singer's view on that. In the grand scheme of things this is all complaining about WITTR is just stupid really whether you like the band or not.
Dude, if you think right wing means austerity and exploiting labor by big capital, you seriously need to expose yourself to a wider range of viewpoints, and clean the stereotypes out of your brain. Stereotypes can be useful heuristic tools, but only if they're relatively accurate lol
14:00 I lived in the PNW for 16+ years (just moved away);and Holy fuck! I can confirm what this man is saying! There is an undeniable bizzarness to the PNW. From the strange way people act which is like no other, to the strange vibe in the area. I honestly think the land has a curse upon it. It has a dark, negitive energy which people do pick up on (consciously or unconsciously) and beings the worst out if people. It's not a good area in any way. aesthetically the PNW is nice but pure hell to live there. I'm glad not to live there anymore.
Fuck what everyone else says I like these guys, and there is plenty of good US black metal, trve and not trve. I like Judas Iscariot and Grand Belial's Key (I'm not a Nazi sympathizer so nobody get triggered) as much as I like Agalloch (I know they aren't pure black metal but the influence is there) and Xasthur.
@@RautaMetal Oh man well Von, what can I say about them. They basically started USBM, "Satanic Blood" is a great jam. Doesn't Profanatica have one of the original of Incantation? I hate to say it but Black Funeral doesn't ring a bell to me and Krieg I have their e.p. "The Church", good stuff. I haven't heard of Havohej either, I hate to say it.
Yes, Von is an originator. Yes, Profanatica has that Incantation tie. Check out old Black Funeral. You might like it! Havohej is very very blasphemous. Totally "cock out" blasphemy. Google it without safe search on!
Like Darkthrone mentioned..."You call your Metal black, but it's just spastic, lame and weak" I wonder if this guy wears his eyeliner while he's examinated by his gynecologist.
@@RautaMetal I used to be in the German BM-Scene in the mid 90s, today i ain't anymore. Got no problem with US-BM at all, still got some stuff of Demoncy, Krieg and several projects of Akhenaten here. No offense in general.
Good bands. I forgot to mention Demoncy earlier when I listed some good USBM bands to others. That's definitely among the better ones. For me the best still are Absu and Judas Iscariot. Really doubt any other USBM band can ever beat those two in my books.
@@RautaMetal Yup...got the first two Absu records, too, also Black Funeral and Black Witchery stuff. Profanatica was also to mention these days, very simple, but a least raw and ugly. Akhenaten and everything he did was pretty well accepted overhere and was, of course, a part of the later german scene. Mentioning all this stuff above, you now might understand my attitude towards a band like Wolfs. For me they are fake, no attitude, no spirit....it's BM for a generation of BM-fans that actually don't like BM. So hating this band, got nothing to do with USBM. They are just boring as fuck.
Kollege Mostrich Yes. I understand you even though I don't agree. I think Wolves have decent stuff. And anyway I like to interview many kinds of bands. Not must my favorites. Absu's debut I never got to like. But Tara is one of the best bm albums of all time.
Well, you should undertstand that "Cascadian" here refers to those mountains in the NW USA. Thus, it's location-related term much like "Nordic Black Metal", nothing more, nothing less.
Kkkkkkkk sorry dude but PROSCRIPTOR from ABSU did this in 90,s already ! I GIVE YOU A ZEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOO ! don’t copy stuff guys.... let’s try to be original in something .... hahahah this PROSCRIPTOR cosplay is TERRIBLE @hipsterblackmetal
Maraloz Safir it’s an opinion (which happens to be fact) but so far anything coming out of the USA these days is this hipster bm like Liturgy and Deafheaven. It really isn’t bm but ok since Nathan likes Cascadian bm let’s just eliminate the word black and call it Cascadian Metal for better accuracy for all those sharp shooters out there.
@@Voyvoda1903 Ivan Pelovski dont get me wrong, i hate liturgy and deafheaven (really), but there is good things coming from the US, im a brazilian and listen to black metal from a lot of countries, from this year i can name the project of bestial devotion from negative plane, its called funereal presence, its a pretty solid album. i also like the raw stuff like bone awl and shit, take a listen to nyogthaeblisz, tetragrammacide, anyway, grand belial key is one of my fav bands so i gotta defend us bm a little, but i agree with you in a degree. from my country i can name two bands for you to check: goatpenis (war metal/black metal) and sovereign. my problem is just that this horrible term 'hipster' is just dated and stupid, just call shitty black metal if you dont like them, but i personally dig their two first albuns (diadem and two hunters), cascadian black metal for me is just a stupid term for atmospheric black metal.
That eyeliner might be there because it was post-gig interview. It's hard to get that corpse paint etc. washed away around eyes. I speak from experience 8-)
People like to hate on this band for no reason, there's no denying they make amazing music.
Well, haters gonna hate, but so what. They hatin' when they see bands like this rollin'.
@Babyfaced Baron How? When did they ever expressed their support for Antifa?
To be honest, I haven't seen any "antifa support" by this or any bm band.
People keep saying this yet no source is ever provided.
This
I like that he mentioned listening to their music alone with headphones. I've went on some plesant "journeys" doing that. Nothing like relaxing to atmospheric music alone with headphones before sleep.
Listening to music through headphones in bed is always a great thing to do. But with some bands it's just a bit more special. wittr is definetely one of em!
They were probably one of the best sounding live metal bands I've ever heard.
I second this
He looks like a thicker version of Frost from Satyricon.
lol Frost gone hillbilly :D
It's the eyeliner lol
This band is amazing, unic style... The atmospher is deep, pure, the riffing are absolut impressive !
On show is fantastic, the band is cool, simple atitude not a posers or superficial.
Wolves In The Throne Room thanks for your travel in my mind...
I grew up in Olympia, WA in the forest. Its very eerie and dark. Even on sunny days it is dark because of how intensely thick the forest is. Its so thick its almost impossible to walk through it. I remember we used to dare each other as kids to run into the woods at night and stay there for a certain amount of time. it was terrifying
Sounds like a fantastic place to visit!
I lived in the Olympic National Forest for 6-months. Picked that area specifically because of what you said - the forest is so thick, you can easily disappear "off the grid". Definitely experienced lots of unexplainable phenomena during those 6-months..
I lived in Forks for a while in the summer and it is a dark place even then
I love how he plays black metal and mentions Nirvana..
To me...that sells me on him alone..plus David Lynch.. Twin Peaks kicks ass..I wish every black metal band had this attitude..
I came to know these guys pretty late, but they are really awesome. Their live performance is also excellent. This was a great interview, thanks!
Thank you very much!
Better late than never. Enjoy it, they are amazing. Especially two hunters is a masterpiece.
So if there's "green metal", is Immortal "weather metal"?
Well, as a Finn you might remember that Immortal was often called "weather metal" or "weather forecast metal" over here.
Fuck the sun
Immortal is "It's looking like we'll be having some winter weather this weekend, folks. Be sure to bundle up and bring the plants inside" Metal.
Indeed. Hence we called it "weather forecast metal" in Finland.
Its tree hugging black metal. WITTR is top tier tree hugging black metal.
I love wolves in the throne room and I love how I can hear Bruce Springsteen in the background
We picked the bar just for you!
Wolves in the Throne Room is my favorite band ever and Bruce is my favorite Songwriter ever :D

First time someone says he loves me, haha! Yeah, well, nobody can't like all the bands understandably.
I cringed at the sight of his eyeliner and then cringed when he said cascadian bm 😂
That eyeliner might be there because it was post-gig interview. It's hard to get that corpse paint etc. washed away around eyes. I speak from experience 8-)
You are probably one of those that hate USBM.

Saw them last month. Stiff, boring, not even interested in their audience in the slightest. Luckily At The Gates made up for it.
