Yeah, the US is creating some excellent underground black metal. Ered Wethrin, Winterlore, Ifing, Mare Congnitum, Noltem, Hoth
 
Can anyone recommend me some "uplifting" black metal? I often find myself in the mood for some BM, but not in the mood for something incredibly dark (granted that's a bit of a contradiction). Something along the lines of Sacramentum's "Far away from the Sun" is a good example. Very peaceful, beautiful bit of BM. It's far from slow, but it's just... soothing I guess.

Another example would be Drudkh at times.
