Bands like Summoning

[The Bright Beast]

- incase anyone doesn't know summoning. Also, because they're BM, no NSBM suggestions please, I don't want to listen to that.

 

[Krow]

So do you want folky black metal or symphonic black metal or a combination of the two?

 

[The Bright Beast]

hmm, i would say folky please

Hellveto, though I'm not really a fan

Golden Dawn - The Art of Dreaming (the latest album is totally different, but TAOD is great stuff)

Sounds like you need Graveland.

 

[Einherjar86]

I didn't think of Hellveto! I actually love his work.

 

[brooks55]

Elffor.

Enid's Natchgedanken is total Summoning worship

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Hellveto for sure.
I've never been able to get into Summoning

 

[Einherjar86]

I actually like Hellveto more than Summoning.

 

[J.]

all of hellveto's albums sounded the same. if youve got a falkenbach, summoning and graveland album, well, youve got all the hellveto you need

 

[Einherjar86]

I actually beg to differ. He does have a distinct sound that (on some albums) seems to run together, but there are a few where his approach is different. For instance, In the Glory of Heroes sounds different than Stos, which sounds different than Neoheresy.

With regards to something you said earlier; the only Enid I own is Seelenspiegel. Are their other albums (including the newest) worth checking out?

 

[J.]

regarding hellveto, the one that struck me the most was actually the demo Medieval Scream. releasing nearly two albums a year just jumbles everything together.

Enid's Natchgedanken is actually pretty good. very Summoning-esque, and they even went so far as to cover a summoning song on their demo. The next one got more orchestral, but i did enjoy it. i actually though seelenspiegel was the weakest. i never heard gradwanderer.

There is no bands like Summoning and if you think there is then you're fucking stupid.
