Black Metal.

NeChrist is pretty meh compared to the rest of their material but I like it.

That is correct!

Yeah man, definitely check out the newer stuff. They are obviously more folk influenced than the earlier releases, but they are terrific. I understand the fear of folkiness, as I am the same way to a point, but the last two Nokturnal Mortum albums are fucking amazing.

So I just checked out earlier Nachtmystium for the first time. I bought Demise & Eulogy IV at Central Illinois Metalfest & I am quite impressed.

Demise and Eulogy IV are not bad at all. Definitely quite a step above the average USBM fare. Even a really traditional release like Demise holds up pretty well now.

Nokturnal Mortum always struck as too having too much frolicking keyboards and polka riffs, although to be honest I haven't heard much of their newer stuff.

Agreed. I think they hit their high point with Instinctecay, but I dig the newer stuff too.

Nechrist is awesome. I never could understand the hate for that album.

 

[Eligos]

Have I missed out on any new or recently discovered and discussed black metal albums since I've been gone? I'm already looking into Twilight and Petrychor.

 

[cookiecutter]

New Twilight is cool. I bet they are regretting their band name choice right now though.

 

[MasterOLightning]

I have mentioned all these, but my favorite recent releases are as follows:

Clair Cassis - s/t
De Magia Veterum - Migdal Bavel
Schrei Aus Stein - Talus
Dark Fury/Ohtar split

The comments make me hate people.

Have you checked out the new Odem Arcarum Eligos? I was pretty impressed with it.

 

[Episteme]

The comments make me hate people.

The article is funny, the comments are even funnier.

It's msn, what do you expect?

 

[meaperson333]

"omg first off nothing they have done is original...lets see mimic kiss and some cartoon on adult swim..wow really i bet their fans think this is the greatest stunt and most original stunt ever...i agree with the comment if you dont have talent to wow them do something stupid and you wont be forgotten..unless the something stupid has already been done..there is only one true hardcore heavy metal band of all time and that was PANTERA. the rest are just wishing they were as good as pantera was."

Now I like Pantera and all but this was just plain hilarious.

[Slayed Necros]

Archaic Visions took so fucking long that I barely even care anymore. I'll check it out, I guess.
