Limbonic Art
Biography
Norwegian extreme metal project Limbonic Art was formed in 1993 by vocalist/guitarist Daemon; though originally a four-piece, Daemon soon dismissed his collaborators, teaming with synth player Morfeus to record the 1996 debut Moon in the Scorpio. The follow-up, 1997's In Abhorrence Dementia, was supported by a tour opening for Emperor, and a year later Limbonic Art issued its third LP, Epitome of Illusions. Ad Noctum--Dynasty of Death appeared in 1999, followed a few year later by the savage Ultimate Death Worship. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
Selected Discography
LOL. Yes, world peace throught the superior firepower of the Death Star! Kaiton, my good sir, you are a genius!
|
||
Screw it. Let's just build the Death Star. It'll be simpler.
LOL. |
||
I thought of tethering, but I can't think of any way to do so which would be secure from possible attack.
Perhaps if we generate a star wars style energy shield from a satellite we can protect the support mechanisms in the case of an earthquake. Now that's a solid redundant system! |
||
Well, you'd need a magnet on steroids for each of the 4 faces of the building, then another even bigger one for the bottom of the structure, because it would be the main load-bearing one.
LOL. Your building survives a nuclear blast, only to be destroyed, because an earthquake knocks out you levitation system, sending it tumbling down. Perhaps a tethering system to hold it in place on the 2D ground plane... |
||
True, it would be more like an airbag I suppose. The structure wouldn't experience localized shock, it would be a uniform shock of pressure throughout the entire face of the building. If you could mag-lev in 3-dim, it would be a very interesting experiment. We would need some redundant back-up systems in place in the event of mag-lev failure of course.
|
||
That's true...I guess it does make sense that shock could be transmitted through a magnetic field, but wouldn't a mag field be more forgiving than say...a concrete foundation?
|
||
The system itself would be subject to shock waves however and through the magnetic field, be transmitted to the structure. Also I would be concerned about the anchoring of the structure. How would you keep it in one place? You would need mag-lev in 3 dimensions, or tether the structure in strategic places to prevent lateral movement. And of course, that would be a shock concern as well.
|
||
Like a mag-lev system. The shockwave from an earthquake (or nuke) would pass through the air underneath the building, rather than through the building's foundation. Of course you'd need some seriously beefy electro-magn e t s and a formidable power source. That actually would probably be a pretty profitable invention if someone figured out a way to do it efficiently.
|
||
Interesting notion of suspending in air. What do you have in mind there?
|
||
...Problem with natural barriers is that then the structure will have to resist the shockwave multiple times, because it'll bounce off the mountains. Happened in Hiroshima. None of these problems are that big of an issue, as long as our funding is unlimited. Yeah, liquid shock-absorb i n g system is definitely a must...Heck, why not use the attraction/o p p o s i t i o n traits of magnets, and just suspend the whole dang thing in the air, with no ground contact?
|
||
Other structurally superior forms include a pyramid, or inverted cone. They work the best for managing massive winds while allowing a good vertical dimension. The seismic loading would be the most difficult to account for, maybe install a massive liquid shock absorbing system and use very resilient structure materials like titanium. Bury the foundation 100+ ft in the ground. Perhaps we can find a location with natural barriers such as mountains and canyons to help shield the forces as well.
|
||
Well, aside from intense heat (the sort that can turn people into shadows), there would probably be a significant seismic shock, high-pressur e winds, nuclear radiation, and probably some other unpleasant things. It would have to have some SERIOUSLY strong reinforcemen t , very thick walls, radiation shielding, and some sort of structurally superior form...like a dome, although that makes the height requirement for a skyscraper kind of difficult to obtain...
|
||
Willow's feeble taunts wouldn't hurt a fly. That is a tall order tho. I wonder what forces we would be talking about from a shock wave from a nuclear blast. Obviously that would be the worst case scenario and would control the design.
|
||
Engineering is kind of interesting. . . T o o much math involved in big multi-millio n dollar projects though...Wha t if we designed a skyscraper capable of withstanding a nuclear blast, five airplane crashes, and all of Willow's feeble taunts without falling down? Then we can put an imposing facade on it, worthy of mention in one of Limbonic Art's songs. That would be the most epic structure on the face of the earth!
|
||
I enjoy the engineering involved, don't care much about the structure itself tho.

Love shack would definitely do the trick! Next we should rebuild the Trade Center ... in Iran.
|
||
I'm thinking "Rock Lobster" by the B52s, or better yet, "Love Shack", on repeat.
|
||
10x would be about 9'x5' with a ceiling height of 4'. All we need then is some bars and find bubba. I think we should outfit a stereo and play nothing but Godsmack on repeat. Change the song once a month or so. It would be a great science experiment. See how long it takes for him to crack.
|
||
I was thinking we could make it considerably smaller, you know, like maybe 9' x 5'...Bunk bed against the wall, stainless steel toilet in the corner, large homosexual cell-mate named Bubba...
|
||
Or we can begin with your hole old man. I mean, you and I know we know what goooood shiit is and what is not. Lets team up and teach the children to worship symphonic blackness of the metallic kind. Kay hun?;)
|
||
I say we begin with willow's hole. We can build a structure 10x the size. You know, so that maybe a hobbit could live there. Of course, we'd have to burn the existing structure to the ground, for sanitation reasons.
|
||
@the cadaver: Glad to have helped you out there.
@OMW: Let's do it. We can convert cities from box warehouses and tract housing to gothic stone structures and log cabins one building at a time. Where to start? |
||
Wow, where has this band been all my life? Definitely a gem of a find.
Kudos Plague. |
||
Perhaps if we join ranks, we can take out the modernist school of architecture . What say you?!!
|
||
Yes, actually I have. And I prefer atmosphere and shrieking men in tight black leather with spikes and make-up to GS. Deal with it. You can't single-hande d l y kill all this so-called "fake" metal any better than I can single-hande d l y destroy the modernist school of architecture .
|
||
@Plague: What do you think of 'Echos of Silence'. I am very intrigued by this CA band (although it is more of a solo act). I checked out Antestor. Wow, that is great stuff.
|
||
I'm here huckleberry.
Limbonic Art is my favorite black metal band. They are a cut above, easily distinguisha b l e from most black metal. |

bleed for me you fuccking bittch under some god damn unforgiving black moon for people likke me thatt hate sunnlite.... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
