Black Metal.

[sevag00]

Meh band.

 

[Eligos]

Really fun to listen to for a little bit, but they get boring fairly fast.

 

[Srontgorrth]

I'm still loving Assorted Armament, it's a fantastic album. I haven't listened to the other two, but I ordered Elect Darkness a couple days ago.

 

[gundamterran]

Enslaved's Axioma Ethica Odini is their best work in years. Amazing fucking album.

 

[Eligos]

Try Slowdive or Ride, I think they're better than My Bloody Valentine

I listened to Lantlos for the first time yesterday. Pretty good, but I still haven't heard any of shoegaze/black metal that approaches Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde.

You need to listen to Dopamine.



Also, I'm a fan of Alcest. Who thought no one liked them here? Iirc challenge_everything and unknown are fans too.

I'm rediscovering black metal......I've been out of it for the past few years but am really recognizing it for its greatness now.

I've read alot of great things about a defunct band named WINDIR. The samples I've heard on Youtube are all stellar.

Is this band as great as the reviews claim?

I'm happy to hear this! Cant wait to pick up this album. I love everything they've ever done but do agree that the last release wasn't quite as dominant as Ruun, which I love.

 

[~Neurotica]

Can't wait for Primordial's new album.

In short, yes.

To flesh that out a bit: they're essentially part of the subgenre of folk-influenced black metal, their guitar parts are utterly fucking awesome, their melodies are sick, and the vocals (both harsh and clean) are amazing. I'd suggest you check out Arntor and 1184.

This is going to be epic.

Done. Just ordered both.....cant wait to hear 'em.

Checking out A Forest of Stars' new one. This could very well be my #1 for the year.

 

[Krow]

I havent gave that a proper listen... I did hear one of the songs and thought it was really good though.

 

[unknown]

I do enjoy Alcest...excited about new primordial...thought the new A Forest of Stars didn't live up to the debut, but I need to listen to it more

Exactly my words.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I've had it on repeat for about 5 hours now. It's fucking incredible. Again they prove to be the masters of their craft. Unfuckingtouchable.

 

[SkiesAtOurFeet]

New Agalloch album in November, titled 'Marrow of the Spirit.' Will be released by Profound Lore Records.

 

[Hubster]

Nice. 2010 is winding up to be a great year.
