Avant-Garde Black Metal

[Sabin Frost]

Big fan of Sigh and Ved Buens Ende. Any other recommendations for Black Metal bands with a style that encompasses a lot of genres of music.

 

[Mort Divine]

I used to listen to alot of it - so let me check what I can find laying around.

Solstafir - Í Blóði og Anda (this is an absolutely fucking great album)
Solefald - The Linear Scaffold
Dodheimsgard - 666 International
Anubi - Kai pilnaties akis uzmerks...

 

[Zephyrus]

Aborym - all albums

 

[J.]

Fleurety - Min Tid Skal Komme

The best of the bunch.

Fleurety - Min Tid Skal Komme

The best of the bunch.

.

pick up the other Fleurety releases as well. and if you like Ved Buens Ende, then you're pretty much obligated to check out Virus

Solefald - The Linear Scaffold

Is there a chance that I'll like this one considering I hated In Harmonia Universalis and that Pills or whatever album? I've heard this one described as being rather similar to La Masquerade Infernale.

Anubi are very good.

 

[Mort Divine]

Yeah, I like it the least of their albums aside from Neonism - but it is more BM related than Pills and IHU, so perhaps.

 

[Alter]

Urfaust.

Borknagar and Arcturus obviously need a mention.

Definitely check out Ephel Duath, particularly their earlier stuff. The Painter's Palette is their most highly regarded (jazz/black metal) but I far prefer Rephormula, a gothic, symphonic, electronic styled black metal album. In fact it's one of my favourite BM albums ever.

 

[Sabin Frost]

Plenty of recommendations so far, thanks guys. Ephel Duath sound really interesting and unique so far.

yehhhhhhhhhh fleurety for sure

painkiller

[tagradh]

Negura Bunget. ;o

 

[Sabin Frost]

Negura Bunget. ;o

I regularly listen to, and enjoy Negura Bunget.

 

[Attilio II]

Arcturus!

Stop all you're doing and listen to each album until you've memorized all lyrics and instrumentation. NOW

 

[jervi]

Solstafir - Í Blóði og Anda (this is an absolutely fucking great album)

Aye!
And the new one too =)

 

[Blue_Jay]

Negura Bunget. ;o

Best band mentioned so far by far.

 

[wandering_taco]

Diabolical Masquerade falls under this genre I think. They are pretty sweet.

 

[Sabin Frost]

Arcturus!

Stop all you're doing and listen to each album until you've memorized all lyrics and instrumentation. NOW

I was actually listening to Sideshow Symphonies the other day, it is brilliant, not sure it could really be called black metal though, still, I dont want to prod at the whole classification thing as I dont wish to get my head bitten off by a troll.

 

[Hubster]

Code, Control Human Delete, Bergraven.

 

[panzerfaust666]

damn i was going to say code, arcturus and dodheimsgard!


agathodaimon at times as well?
