That Bekhira album is amazing. Still don’t like the Fin album much.

Kinda surprised the Hail has so few ratings on rym!

You forgot Sorcier des Glace's North which you'd agree is pretty close to the top of that fine list....

varathron - stygian forces of scorn

One of the best Hellenic black metal albums in the last 15 years and one of the greatest comebacks in black metal. I don't think they have competition in Greece nowadays.

Have you checked out Synteleia yet? They're not as good obviously but a cool new Greek black metal band in their own right.

I'll check it out.

The guitarist and drummer from Varathron have a very good band called No Hand Path. Not as good as Varathron, but it's some of the best material available in the latest years.

North is pretty well known around here. It’s Moonrise in Total Darkness that remains woefully underrated it seems.

I thought you’d disappeared - nice to see you posting again.

I actually have an original CD-R of their debut 'Snowland' - as you can imagine, being self-released it is a very amateur CD-R, the cover is probably photocopied and it has no sides. According to discogs it's worth a fortune these days. Definitely an interesting band, with a back catalogue that I should explore some more. I remember there were a few fans of the band back on the old A.N.U.S Metal Hall forums years ago.

Sell it.

New Obsequiae:

I hope it's better than their last album.

Thoughts on new Mgla? Riff quality seems to be a step down from the last few albums, but the drumming (which was already excellent) has gone to next level awesomeness.

 

[Phylactery]

Haven’t heard it yet but I’ve been losing interest since With Hearts Towards None, which I thought was good but they seem to have established a formula now.

Presence EP is my favourite material by them. Especially the first track.

Probably their best since Groza.

 

[CiG]

You're welcome.

 

[The Butt]

Probably their best since Groza.

Exercises in Futility was better. Still solid though.

Really like this.The vocals are a deep shout for some of the album which automatically makes people think its hardcore influenced but I dont get why theyre a problem really. A lot of black metal vocals just suck.

Just checked back many pages and found this. Thank you. I dig this, I would like to find more in this vein.
