Black Metal Recommendations-Beyond the Obvious

[Thanatopsis123]

I asked about Dormant - Beneath The Mighty Oak in this thread a while back but only now finally got around to hearing the album. It's definitely worth hearing. I think quite a few around here would dig it.

all I can say about this is : epic :Spin:

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

So, how come no ones been talking about the two Deathspell Omega EPs that came out last year, Chaining the Katechon and Mass Grave Aesthetics
They're both phenomenal, more enjoyable than anything on Fas, imo.

I really need a copy of this. I was shunned by the label and I keep forgetting to write the band.

It is OOP but the songs have been pressed, along with an excellent track from their Mémoires d'Alleuze demo and a "Wolf & Fear" cover, on another release called Opus I on Thor's Hammer Productions. Quite the killer item.

yeah, pretty awesome...i listened to them a bit after they came out and kinda set them aside for a while, should go back again cuz they rock

 

[swizzlenuts]

Well Mass Grave Aesthetics came out right after SMRC, and by one spin I can tell that it's very close to that album. Not as fucked up as Kenose, but still slightly fucked up. It's juts creepy, brooding, and down right evil. Fuck yes.

Deathspell Omega, Darkspace, and Lunar Aurora are newer black metal bands that have never ceased to amaze me. Everything I've heard by these bands are just fucking awesome.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

just listened to MGA, now spinning katechon...so awesome. if their next full length is anything like these i'll be first in line. one of those rare bands that bucks the "their old stuff is the best" paradigm, they just keep getting better and better (fapfapfapfapfap)

 

[cthulufhtagn]

anybody know anything about glorior belli? seem pretty cool...i'm into french black metal these days, what can i say

also

heresi - psalm II is pretty good, i guess i should go check out ondskapt now

also

canis dirus - a somber wind from a distant shore is pretty cool atmospheric bm from minnesota eh

 

[Ellestin]

yes

 

[Evil?]

From what I gather Glorior Belli are one of these totally average BM bands that gets attention becasue they are "orthodox". I could be totally wrong and thinking of someone else, but ya.

 

[Ellestin]

you are wrong but their latest album is a failure

I hear the vocalist is a tool.

Grim Funeral kicks ass. Believe that.

Perhaps that is the criticism my mind was recalling.
