Hey all, I posted a thread a while ago asking for BM recommendations, and now I have become somewhat familiar with a lot of those bands recommended.

Now I ask, recommendations specifically for SORROWFUL black metal. The saddest/most sorrowful sounding BM you know of. Perhaps somewhat along the lines of Emperor's 'In the Nightside Eclipse'

Cheers.

####1 Abyssic Hate - Suicidal Emotions

One of the only things I don't agree with you on. Can't stand it, though I do like my fair share of Burzum-worship...don't know what it is about it.

Xasthur - Nocturnal Poisoning
Wigrid - Hoffnungstod (PARTICULARLY the title track, such a sorrowful repetitive lead)
Ulver - Nattens Madrigal (can be pretty "sad" at times)

I'm amazed, considering how...

...awful these are. Actually I quite enjoy them, but they really are bottom-of-the-barrel type stuff.
