Black Metal.

[Thasis]

I've recently listened to the album Lands of Ancient Cult by Cyhiriaeth. Maybe I'll write a review if I have some time. As to Hubster's review. Great review of the CD. I have that album and I can completly agree with your feelings of it being more of an experiance then an album per say. Great review.

Mörker
Lord Belial
Ulver (Nattens Madrigal)

 

[MasterOLightning]

Although I'm not a big fan, Watain are pretty melodic. I wouldn't go with Nattens Madrigal.

 

[Zephyrus]

I wouldn't go with Nattens Madrigal.

and why not?

 

[Perpetual Catatonia]

I can think of a far higher number of bland generic black metal bands than any other genre.

There are also a lot who don't make very generic music, but it's fucking pointless because it's so damn raw. I swear, if Moonblood didn't record their music with a Crayola Tape Recorder from 50 feet away then they would probably be one of my favorite Black Metal bands.

and why not?

It's not a very good example of a melodic black metal album.

NACHTFALKE - DOOMED TO DIE

 

[Mort Divine]

Black metal at it's very core is melodic :| but Lifelover - Pulver, Alcest - Le Secret, Sun of the Sleepless - split with Nachtmar, Amesoeurs - Ruines Humaines, and Melencolia Estatica - s/t, Mystic Forest - Romances

 

[Hubster]

One of lesser known, yet best Black Metal releases of 2006. Buy it people, you won't be sorry (available through Supernal).

Hateful with chainsaw production, and a snarled thin shrieking vocal style. MGŁA is a band with a strong future ahead, thanks to their inclusion on the "Crushing The Holy Trinity" Compilation along with Deathspell Omega and Clandestine Blaze.

MG£A

 

[MasterOLightning]

Yeah, I thought Mgla was great on the comp. I'm looking forward to getting this one pretty soon, along with OM. Both were out of stock at Metal Haven.

 

[Hubster]

Link to Supernal's entry for it.

Link to Supernal's entry for it.

"Recorded in a raw but not shitty-sounding way"
so eloquent. I suppose it gets the message across at least.

 

[cookiecutter]

I'd rather have honesty like that than the usual label propaganda

 

[Hubster]

Yeah true.

I know some people (well, I've experienced this in the Opeth forum anyway) think that the way Black Metal is described by labels is funny, but I find it refreshing, and far more accurate.

Lifelover - Pulver

DON'T FUCKING DO IT!

 

[Mort Divine]

DON'T FUCKING DO IT!

Actually do it Very good album.

 

[Nico]

Sure, if you like kiddie porn and having your testicles surgically removed through your ears.

 

[Hubster]

ROFL! Im trying to picture testes hanging out of ears, its not a good picture!

True art is never easy to understand.
