Black Metal.

Maybe worth your time checking out Angst Skvadron too. Flukt fits the bill. Also, you should check out oranssi pazuzu's second album, kosmonument if the track you heard was from the first album, this one is a little more straight forward but still spacey.

Also try Abigor's ''Opus IV'' if you dont know it already.

 

[sevag00]

Check out Midnight Odyssey. Highly recommended.

 

[NapalmHorst]

I'll have to check this out soon. I really liked Enochian Crescent.

Hopefully you'll like the new stuff too. If you wonder what the hell is going on in some of the songs the band has provided translations of the songs. Just follow the link to download the pdf-file: RISTI: English interpretations of Finnish lyrics (pdf)

I've always thought Lunar Aurora was fairly "spacey." Check them out as well if you already haven't.

 

[Eligos]

+1 for Oranssi Pazuzu. I also think Dodecahedron's pretty spacey, and comparable to OP's second album.

Also, welcome back, Tara.

Thanks! It's good to see a familiar "face" here .

I'm listening to this Dodecahedron track now and all I have to say is...wow. Next up on the "check 'em out" list is Oranssi Pazuzu.

 

[SentinelSlain]

are Hyban Draco any good?

So, with the exception of some standouts, I've been out of touch with Black Metal for a few years. What albums would you guys recommend on the post rocky, folksy, shoegazing, avant garde and epic fronts?

The last albums I dug were:
Vaura's debut
The 777 Trilogy
Dodecahedron's debut
Todtgelichter - Angst

 

[Sloz]

Bathory, Satyricon and also Behemoth (not sure if they count as Black Metal since they are Blackened Death Metal).

 

[EspaDa]

Alcest's first album was pretty nice shoegaze sample. Still, I don't know what to think about their demo Tristesse Hivernale. It has horrible production, but it is what we're all about in black metal.

 

[Mort Divine]

It really is not a good example of shoegaze at all.

 

[Eligos]

See, it's funny, Mort, because most black metal fans would say the exact opposite: that Alcest is more shoegaze than metal.

 

[EspaDa]

Yeah, but he knows better. I wouldn't even consider Alcest black metal.

Few off the top of my head:

Kawir - ΙΣΟΘΕΟΣ
Eis - Wetterkreuz
Lantlos - (ALL)
Fyrnask - Bluostar
Cloak of Altering - (BOTH)

Checking this right now.

 

[wandering_taco]

I really like Deathspell's latest, it was more of a grower than the last couple for me though. And I remember hearing good things about Drudkh's latest if you like them.

WORD.

I really like Deathspell's latest, it was more of a grower than the last couple for me though. And I remember hearing good things about Drudkh's latest if you like them.

Not sure if your talking about Paracletus or their EP Drought, but both were badass. Deathspell has been on a sick one, been loving all their shit.

The latest Drudkh album was their weakest, imo...Still liked it though.

 

[wandering_taco]

Drought. And I've only heard one song from the newest Drudkh, it dragged on a little too long, little too repetitive. I liked the tone and atmosphere though, hopefully the next one will be better. I looooved Microcosmos and whatever handful of songs I've heard off the albums prior to that. Blood of Kingu's second album, Moon in the Scorpio, which is most of the Drudkh dudes, is really badass too. That came out a couple years ago though, I hope they do another album with that project.

To add:
Celeste - Nihiliste(s) sorta BM with hardcore parts.
Gallowbraid - Ashen Eidolon (folky melodic BM)
Glorior Belli - Great Southern Darkness (BM sludge from France. Awesome stuff).
The Meads of Asphodel - The Excommunication of Christ (avant-garde BM from UK)

Not new but Diabolical Masquerade is quite avant-garde BM. I love their album the Phantom Lodge.
