Mercyful Fate - The Beginning
Vulcano - Bloody Vengeance
Mortuary Drape - Tolling 13 Knell (their highest quality album that is not a real pain in the ass to acquire)
Bulldozer - Day Of Wrath (or rather the Regenerated In The Grave box set)
Running Wild - Gates To Purgatory

Once you buy what other people have said try and get these. A bit of overlooked bands of that period.

No offence Alter, but I'd much rather stick with the first list. That's Black Metal I can enjoy!

Don't be upset mate; I'm an acknowledged numb-skull when it comes to Black Metal. It's my Kryptonite! I really like the early stuff - you know, Celtic Frost, Mercyful Fate etc - but other than more a couple of bands, I can't really stand anything that's called Black Metal since 1990.

Is it just me or is Epheles extremely underrated? They easily belong in the top echelon of 'contemporary' black metal IMO. Aggressive as fuck, thick, foreboding atmosphere, and epic, dark melodies. Nothing original obviously, but they utilize the BM tools at their disposal remarkably well.

Yeah, they get a good amount of praise but I generally feel that they do get overlooked often times in the French scene to make room for bands like DsO, BAN, Alcest, Peste Noire, etc.

Arckanum is also some more killer shit.
The riffs are composed in a interesting was. It remains raw but has a good amount of solid guitar playing. There are a few bits of folk added and some atonality here and there. The vocals are also among the better I have heard in a good while.

I heard Kampen and was kinda unimpressed...it was OK, but nothing I'd keep around for the most part.
We always talk about French BM here, but we hardly ever discuss Eikenskaden or the equally competent Mystic Forest...any reason?
