Black Metal.

[divine_torture]

I've check out the stuff in the last two pages.
I like stuff like Odal, Heimdalls Wacht, Abigor, the first Farsot, Haive, Fimbultyr, early Manegarm, Nokturnal Mortum, Helrunar...

what I dont want, psychedelic type shit. Not a fan at all! Also, no doom. the doom love that UM gets is fucking wierd

Yeah, I don't get the doom love either.

If you like Odal, Heimsdalls Wacht and the like, check out:

Wolfsmond
Absurd
Hellfucked
Moonblood
Luror

That's just a small list of pretty good German black metal. Lots of awesome melody in the riffs.

 

[Bitencourt29]

Yeah, Furia is our pride. Marzannie, Królowej Polski is damn good.

You should be proud indeed, they're a great band. I own all of their Full-length albums, kickass stuff. Furia, Mgla and Azarath are the best Polish bands around imo.

 

[EspaDa]

Yeah man, but don't forget about Decapitated, Vader, Behemoth or Hate. And of course I mean all Polish bands, not black metal only.

and Devilish Impressions

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

cool, thanks dudes. Now where the hell can I order that stuff from?
I know of hellsheadbangers, what else??

 

[UltimateApathy]

Can anyone here recommend some Symphonic Black Metal to me? Perhaps stuff similar to this:

Or this:

And if you feel inclined to troll me for posting those examples (as I suspect some will), rather go ahead and recommend what you think good Symphonic Black Metal is.

I'd recommend Emperor if you already haven't done so. Especially their first two albums "In the Nightside Eclipse" and "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk" killer albums.

I've also been digging Advent Sorrow lately too. You'd probably like them.

and Devilish Impressions

I could add Frontside, a decent metalcore band, but you can check it out and tell your opinion. Still, they have some nice songs like "Wspomnienia jak Relikwie".

Try Ominous Domain. Prices are a tad more than HHR usually, but they ship media mail & it's dirt cheap. Actually I probably order from them more than any other Site these days.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

kickass! ordering now

Hey you might want to try giving Arcturus album "The Sham Mirrors" a listen. Though more regarded as atmospheric there's quite a bit of symphony in it, and you may enjoy it.

 

[UltimateApathy]

Ok so we got Emperor, Advent Sorrow, and Arcturus so far. Thanks for those recommendations, anyone else wanna weigh in with some symphonic Black Metal suggestions?

 

[Eligos]

If you haven't checked out Abigor yet, they are an absolute essential in the realm of symphonic BM. I recommend starting With Nachthymen and working forward in their discography.

Borknagar is also a great band to start off with, their albums from the turn of the millennium are probably their most accessible.



Dornenreich is also very easy to get into, but their material has plenty of return value and doesn't vest itself completely in catchiness and a quick dollar.

 

[Bitencourt29]

Yeah man, but don't forget about Decapitated, Vader, Behemoth or Hate. And of course I mean all Polish bands, not black metal only.

I love the first three Decapitated albums, superb tech DM. Vader also got some pretty good albums, and play great gigs. Saw them like 3 years ago in Sao Paulo, terrific show. Don't really like Hate's material. Listen to some of Behemoth's albums, I prefer their older stuff.

 

[SomeGuyDude]

This is kinda black/doom, but I figure it'd go well in this thread. Band's called Wound Upon Wound, and a buddy of mine in Ireland was all "hey my friends have this band, you might like them" and the first fucking track had my jaw on the floor.

http://wounduponwound.bandcamp.com/track/i-become

It's what I love about this day and age. People bitch that there's no good music, but there is, and it's CRAZY what you can find.

Also this album art is fucking sick.

Badass! I'm going to check this out when I get home from work. Also Black/Doom might be one of the best fusions of music ever.

@UltimateApathy,

I can't believe I forgot to mention Borknagar! Their newest album "Urd" is amazing. Highly recommended.

Solid, but not quite enough symphonic stuff to make it amazing IMO.
