Sorry for the stupid vague thread title, but I couldn't think of anything better.
I've been listening to a lot of Windir recently. I love the "majestic" feeling on all of their albums (see "Fagning" of Likferd for the best example, with that glorious melodic guitar lead), and they have at least 2 or 3 truly outstanding songs on each album, where they really succeed in creating some truly epic and majestic black metal. However, I don't find any of their albums to be consistently good throughout.
Ehh, I'm really bad at pinpointing exactly what it is I'm looking for. Basically the reason I mention Windir is because the type of stuff I'm looking for is very much in the vein of Windir's style, but I never felt they themselves ever managed to create a 10/10 album, although I really like what they were trying to achieve.
So any suggestions of other stuff? And yes, I've heard [FONT=Verdana,geneva,arial]Vikingligr Veldi (that's another good point of reference)
