That goat - archgoat goat arch shit never ticked any fucking box for me.
As far as Beherit's concerned, only record I like is Engram.the old shit is just a can of wasps covered in vomit violently raping my eardrums so no thanks.
You're obviously more into the second wave of BM. Archgoat, as well as Beherit, have a much more minimalistic approach to black metal, they picked up where Bathory and Hellhammer had left off and took their formula to the most simplistic end, which is more than fine.
There's something alluring about their very crude, sometimes clumsy approach to creating music. The early demo stuff is enjoyable despite how abrasive it is, but they hit the magic spot on Drawing Down the Moon; songwriting is interesting enough without being too repetitive and the warm guitar tone and ghastly vocals create a strange atmosphere that sucks you right in. The ambient period is quite effective for creating atmosphere, although slightly less so. Engram is an incredible come back album with some really heavy songs like Demon Advance, Pagan Moon, and Destroyer of Thousand Worlds which have become some of my favorite Beherit tracks.
I have no horse in this race, as I haven't listened to much Archgoat but here's my take
But from what I've listened to of Archgoat, not really my thing. Same with Beherit, as I don't care much for most first and second wave Black Metal. Though, I do dig Beherit's Ambient work.
Both but beherit !!! one of my favorite bands period . Everything they did i love except when they “cameback” engram is ok and i own multiple presses of it because im a fanatical collector. Archgoat rules i love eveything theyve done obviously angelcunt is their masterpiece but beherit just destroys most bands for me . Werewolf semen and blood 7” drawing down the moon changed how i felt about music using electronics, every demo every ep and every live show just kills. If your not a beherit fan listen to the day of darkness lp its live and straight outta hell plus you get a sarcofago satanas cover. Nocturno cultos talking in between songs in finnish is more evil than 90 percent of the crap thats come out in the last 26 years . Six days with sadistic slayer arggfjfhfhfhfhfhfhfhfh 66 and 6 . All hail the kings .
Beherit. Few things have made as strong impact on me as "Drawing Down the Moon" - ever since I first heard "Salomon's Gate" on a classmate's mixtape I was captivated.
Archgoat are great, and have a more consistent discography, but Beherit is too special to me. Sori, Raikku!

I have tried listening to some of the work of Beherit, don't enjoy it too much apologetically. In my own personal opinion it would Arch-Goat.

I would say Archgoat because of their fairly consistent image. Beherit is experimenting with electronic music and it's quite odd to me.
