Ambient black metal

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah, I'm just letting you know so you don't get some Naglfar thinking it's atmospheric/ambient BM

 

[SkiesAtOurFeet]

Also check out Walknut, Raventale and Peordh.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Second Walknut, great music.

Lord Kur is fucking obnoxious. There has been a conspicuous ambient influence within black metal for a very long time now, from bands such as Burzum and Beherit all the way up to contemporary black metal such as Nocternity. There seems to be a tendency to think that ambient-influenced black metal needs to be minimalistic and/or droning but stuff like Nocternity is most definitely neither of those things.

i believe agalloch would most def qualify

Summoning. I suppose that's really, really obvious, though, but not one mention, so...

For Blut Aus Nor get "The Work Which Transforms God", "Memoria Vetusta I: Fathers Of The Icy Age", and "Ultima Thulée" in that order. Avoid "MoRT".

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I agree.

 

[rms]

altar shadows works too

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Njiqahdda needs to be on this list as well.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Damn...fucking...straight. And yet again I will take time to pimp the fact that I will be splitting with them...and the CD will actually be ambient and black metal. My part is space/dark ambient and theirs is very shamanistic/ritualistic ambient BM as always.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

No shit? Fuck that sounds cool. Are you doing this as a whole new project?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yes, it's under the name Xanafalgue.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Awesome, do you have any other songs or samples somewhere for me to hear yet or are you just starting out?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

No, the music has been recorded for months now...I used it in an art project last semester, actually.

[Master_Yoda77]

Bah. I can't seem to get that link to work.

 

[General Zaroff]

Copy/paste the link into your browser.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

I already tried that, the page just never loads.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Works fine for me. It should load after a bit...should play the sample(s) in your browser, if not right click and save it.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Alright. I got it. Awesome stuff.
