I say with Mayhem, but Burzum is also an acceptable answer.

1993

When they started playing sludge

what's a hipster?

In before 4000 views; aril contradicts himself

When they realized having men with bulging muscles and loin cloths on album covers was probably a sign of closet homosexuality.

Can we get an exact date that we can all agree on when the term hipster starting getting thrown around? 2006? After the word scene became over used and they started going away

2006? Way before that.

Sept 11, 2001

The 40s

(insert Aril's date of birth here)

It was used to describe a certain segment of jazz musicians.

July 4, 1776

I think hipster was jazz slang? Its been around a long time. "hippie" was derived from hipster.

I love how Alx thinks I'm a hipster when he has a last.fm account, wears tight pants, and suddenly appeared on the local scene in 2008.

Whoops Mike beat me to it. Also csb on my part heh.

I didnt start hearing about hipster till 2005 2006

I enjoyed the story, TP.

I don't have any tight pants. Just might have gained some weight over the years :/

And I was in YOUR scene since 2005.

Feel free to call me a hipster though, I think it's hilarious.

Im just fuckin with ya

that wiki article is the best attempt to define the term i've heard yet.

Dwyer was the first to utter "hipster" when he crawled out of the primordial sea at the dawn of time.

This just in, the O RLY owl is NOT hipster.

I am still a fan of black metal regardless of what it is called....

fact

im not. Fuck black metal

that is unfortunate...

Aril is actually jim from the office I tell ya

In all fairness, only some black metal is hipster.

When in doubt blame Notshaver.

EDIT: DUMB POST.

When in doubt, OPIP

Hipster bm will slowly die off. Liturgy took it too far and now everyone can see how retarded it is. Everything will turn back to normal within the next few years.

Lol I hope so ^

IN all fairness, black metal sucks

bwack metal > black metal

I think if hipster stopped being so hipster it wouldn't be an issue.

Yummy, you missed the new directive. the word hipster was replaced by faggot.



Carry on...

Norman Mailer pretty much invented white belts and ironic mustache tattoos. You folks are behind on your reading.

Fix'd

Directives are for hipster faggots.

I think that's what the new directive would sound like.

...

When the faggotson rttp starting doing rituals and shit.

It's really sad that black metal turned into this thing that's only appreciated by snobby kids that hang out in record shops all day and think that they're the only ones who listen to the bands they listen to.

Bring back the good old days when BM was appreciated by snobby kids that hung out in record shops all day and thought that they were the only ones who listened to the bands they listen to.

^this. Also, eschew the tired gimmicks and come up with something fresh.
