Black Metal.

So I was listening to Bergtatt today, and I was wondering, are there any bands that do the whole harmonized cleans in black metal, other than Ulver and Agalloch?

(keep in mind I realize Agalloch isn't black metal, though Pale Folklore is kinda close)

While those recommendations were pretty good, I'm looking for something a bit rawer.

I've been listening to the new Blood of Kingu album on spotify. I don't think any of the other tracks rival the sheer brilliance of the one posted a page or so back, but it's a pretty solid affair.
 
one of my fav black metal bands is swedish "Shining". not traditional black metal, but suicidal, misantrophic black metal with both straight forward blackish parts, and atmospheric parts. first four albums are good, last three less good.
 
Since I haven't heard too much talk about it, I will report that Clair Cassis is very good. It's the follow-up to Genevieve really. The name change seems solely to distance the music from the shenanigans of Velvet Cacoon. Same band though, with live drums now.

I even think now that P aa Opal... is a good record. Far more bassy and groovy than anything else, and almost not even a black metal record.

When you order that vinyl, pick up Schrei Aus Stein - Tulus. Really interesting ambient black metal. It'll be about $3 from Starlight Temple Society, if it's still in stock.
