This is going on my '83 list.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i don't think it'll make mine but i'll be happy to see it on other lists, one of the most/best '70s styled NWOBHM albums. i'm surprised you haven't heard them actually as i've posted youtubes a few times when i've mass-dumped nwobhm singles on here. i'm not sure it would be so good if it wasn't for that gorgeous ethereal sound and the vocals could be better, but tis still quite high in my personal NWOBHM canon.

Nope. A Blaze... rules supreme. The 3 follow ups are all great, but not quite on the same level. It's an incredibly daring record, especially considering Darkthrone's origins. They did a complete 180 and released one of the most vile and disgusting albums ever at a time when somewhat technical, polished death metal was becoming all the rage. Of course Darkthrone didn't give a shit about what anyone, including their record label would think. Sums up their attitude perfectly.

Kathaarian Life Code, In the Shadow of the Horns and Paraon Belial are genre highlights. It also features Culto's best vocal performance, absolutely putrid and reeking of hatred and death.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

A Blaze... was my favorite for the longest time though these days Funeral Moon holds the top spot. Blaze is still amazing though. "The Pagan Winter" is one of their finest compositions.

Fleshpress - Tearing Skyholes

I have no idea why but there's that one riff in Paragon Belial right around 1:15 and every time I hear it I always imagine the dude on the cover fucking ice skating to it in the middle of the fucking forest making that facial expression.
