Spite Extreme Wing and Martyrdod deserve far more fans than they have.

Anacrusis

Damn straight. You could make a religion out of Screams and Whispers, but no one did.

its definitely one of the most underrated albums ever, although that's much due to the fact it's fairly unknown. Nonetheless an awesome album.

 

[Alongside Death]

Trollheims Grott one of the best black metal bands with symphonic and sometimes industrial elements. Their two albums including their demo from year 2000 are essential.

 

[Machiavellismx]

Death.

a great band that just never got what they deserved.

 

[CF87]

Edge of Sanity.
Centinex.

 

[genocide roach]

Death.

a great band that just never got what they deserved.

Edge of Sanity

People won't shut up about Edge of Sanity. That's usually a strong sign I should check them out...

 

[Eligos]

What about Mustan Kuun Lapset? They broke up a couple years ago, and they were fucking talented.

 

[mutantllama]

Even though they are talked a lot on this forum, Manilla Road.

You should. I've bought Crimson a while ago and it's pretty good. It's my first EoS album, now I want the others.

Master's Hammer

Also, plenty of the bands people posted, including some that were most likely posted seriously, are pretty well-known.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Master's Hammer

Seconded.

Sabbat (Jpn) definitely deserve more credit. They've been around since the early 80s and have consistently made fantastic metal. They're also ten thousand times better than the UK Sabbat, but perhaps that belongs in the controversial opinions thread.
