Yeah, this pretty much defines Enslaved's career. I like every single album they've released.
Castevet's Mounds of Ash is my favorite out of the newly discovered Profound Lore stuff thus far (excluding Krallice, Cobalt, and other bands I'm a huge fan of on Profound Lore).
Not that it has a whole lot to do with black metal, but Caina - Temporary Antennae is a Profound Lore release that totally rules. I don't know why no one mentions this album here. There are plenty of fans of more creatively adventurous metal albums, and I think this is one of the best ones. It's obviously never being different for the sake of being different. If you dwell on the drum machine and the production, I suppose flaws can be found there, but it's too ambitious for me not to like.
I've known about him for the longest time but never paid much heed; however, listening to 'Ten Went Up River', are all the songs as good as this one? The beginning was meh but then it hit like a 90,000 pound semi.
The new Enslaved album is brilliant I think.
