Early Rotting Christ is good, as well as anything posted above really

Edit: just so that slayed mention Rotting Christ

 

[Slayed Necros]

Also, Demontage.

Seconded. The Principal Extinction rules.

Faustcoven is probably worth mentioning too:

Surprisingly I'm not big on Rotting Christ yet. Convince me.

 

[EchoForever]

have you listened to Satanas Tedeum?

 

[tagradh]

Especially the second half of the album.

 

[CiG]

Yeah the Reap Of Evil demo rules.

 

[Draehl]

Newer Darkthrone?

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

have you listened to Satanas Tedeum?

Nope. I'll give it a go thanks.

Saw Rotting Christ live for the first time this week. I was surprised how good they were live. I only have scattered familiarity with their more recent records, but the setlist, which was mostly newer material, was very strong and has me wanting to familiarize myself more with their recent discography. That said, classics like Sign of Evil Existence and Nom Servaium absolutely slayed. Highly recommended if you get a chance.

Man that 25 minute track on Filosofem is such a bear to sit through. 10 minutes would've been legit. I know a lot of people think it's a genius trance inducing composition but it really hinders the album imo.

 

[Phylactery]

I somewhat agree, it does go on for too long. It's also not up to the quality of "Tomhet". It's part of the reason why I can't put Filosofem on the same level as Hvis Lyset Tar Oss. I do absolutely love the production on Filosofem, though.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i've had revelatory experiences with that ambient tune on misty mornings. i do sometimes skip though.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Personally, I consider it masterful, especially the deeper it gets into the track. My beef with Filosofem is having "Decrepitude," which is the weakest track, on the album twice.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

Solid new occult Belgian black metal.

 

[B_Creamy]

Absolutely agree the ambient track hinders the total quality of Filosofem.

Fishing for recommendations here but does anyone know an album they feel is similar in style to Kvist's LP?

 

[no country for old wainds]

it's the bass that really sets kvist apart, can't really think of anyone else similar in that regard. there's a band called svikt who are obviously influenced by them lol. they get compared with satyricon a lot but that's a slightly superficial comparison. obtained enslavement mayhaps?

 

[Hubster]

Apologies if this has been mentioned earlier in the thread.

Abominor, from Iceland. Very impressive.

Been listening to a lot of Nokturnal Mortum on YouTube to see which albums I want to buy (most of them tbh) and the comments are pretty hysterical.

"Hey I love this..."
"Wait I just googled the band, zero support nazi scum"

It's not like you talk to your real life friends/family about metal any way is it? Will any of them be able to translate anything out of those lyrics? I really doubt both.

can't let my friends on the internet think I might like something racist because it's racist instead of what it actually is because it's the only contact I have with the outside world.

 

[EspaDa]

I wish there were lyrics for Goat Horns. Love the album and the title track in general.

 

[Vilden]

I think the title track is one of the weaker tracks on the album. Veles' Scrolls, Kuyaviya, Kolyada are all better imo. Still a great song obv (the whole album is).
