Morrigan. Need to listen to these guys more, they play killer black metal.
I blasted these guys this morning! Celts, specifically. I don't really like the album start to finish but "Giants of Stone" and "Dance of the Leprechaun" are among the best black metal songs I know. I got a little teary-eyed during the soaring chorus of the former.
Three songs in and so far really cool and about 20 minutes shorter.
I'm curious if it can top the debut. I'm not convinced.

The debut album was extremely average heavy metal with epic leanings. It shouldn't be that hard to improve on that if they actually put in effort.
Maybe a little harsh. If you cut the Manilla Road cover and the last song the debut is pretty decent. Maybe I'm a sucker for the style though. I've got the new one coming in the mail tomorrow.
I generally think that Visigoth's debut is good but I don't listen to it too often. I remember gravitating towards it due to not having found much in the way of metal I liked back in 2015 but I doubt that it would seem as good if I really looked back through the albums that came out that year.I dunno. Too many reissues of actually good trad metal are happening nowadays for me to care about every one of these retro bands. Gatekeeper is the best one out of all of the ones that seem to pal around on Facebook but some of the others are less exciting.
