Black Metal.

[Einherjar86]

Excellent album. If you like it, check out Beyond the Wandering Moon if you haven't already. It's probably my favorite album of all time.

Oh, I already own Beyond the Wandering Moon. That album is the reason I bought ...And So the Night Became. I haven't listened to the latter enough to tell which one I like better, but they're both fucking awesome epic albums.

Don't own Dark Sorcery. I'll make sure to look for it; thanks.

Dark Fortress - Ylem has my full attention. I liked Seance quite a bit, but I think they have progressed with this album. It's a tad long, but that never bothers me. "As The World Keels Over" is a killer track!

 

[Hail The Wizard!]

Oh ffs. Time to split up guys, seriously. Universal was quite boring anyway.

It wasn't "quite boring" it was "fucking terrible".

 

[Episteme]

Naglfar = Meh

Nagelfar = Fucking Great

Hard to imagine better examples of a single letter making such a huge difference.

Didn't really like Virus West, but Srontgorrth is fucking awesome.

 

[Eligos]

Dark Fortress is to Germany as 1349 is to Norway. Their music is pretty shallow and has minimal return value. I don't like how they bring this sort of sassy image into black metal. It reminds me of Warrant or Rat or something of that nature.



Let's fucking snap our fingers and walk down an alley cuz we're black metal gangsters and you won't fuck with our shit lest we blow you away with the mighty magic of our ancestors.

Yay, norsecore.

Finally checked out Absu today. I'm liking both Tara & The Third Storm of Cythraul quite a bit.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Good

You didn't check out Absu until today? :zombie:

Haven't been listening to BM all that long. Only really started scratching the surface last year and Windir, Drudkh, etc pulled me into the Folk BM and I'm just now making my way back to other sub-genres =P

Rocking black metal like that is the most boring type of metal there is. I don't quite get what it wants me to feel when listening. Black metal gangsters is a good name, it's almost more like some kind of self-promotion.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Get Dark Sorcery too. One of the best EPs ever recorded.

Yeah, I actually find myself listening to it more than ...and So the Night Became.

 

[wandering_taco]

So I've been listening to Drudkh- Microcosmos quite a bit recently, and it seems to get better with each listen. I need more Drudkh

 

[IntoPhagist]

This album is godly...I can listen to this all day and do nothing.

I'm awaiting the new Nachtmystium which is debatable as "Black Metal" maybe but I sure loved me some Assasins.

Ihsahn's After is kinda blowing me away too.

Like Death Metal I'm kinda picky with what I listen to so my listening experience is limited. I really like stuff like Darkthrone and Immortal but I'm liking the progressive stuff a lot more,like newer Enslaved.

Are there any other bands I should be checking out?

 

[Zephyrus]

The new track from Nachtmystium is incredibly lame.

 

[Bitencourt29]

Srontgorrth is fucking awesome.

Yeah, it's fucking awesome. Check "Hunengrab im Herbst" in case you haven't. It's godly.

I'm digging it.

You'll probably enjoy these:

Blut aus Nord
Absu (especially S/T album)
Misery's Omen (Awesome Progressive BM)
Nazxul
Primordial
