[no country for old wainds]

[Discovery]

Necromass is hands down the best Italian band!

Agreed, they're damn good.

 

[Orklord]

Wotan
Assedium
Holy Martyr
Adramelch

just some great epic heavy metal bands from Italy

 

[waif]

Alright you faggots, nothing said "Italian death and black metal exclusively." So how about fucking Rhapsody, Luca Turilli, Elvenking, etc?

 

[AchrisK]

Gory Blister ftw!!!

Graveworm also has some great releases.

 

[waif]

Oh yeah gory blister are the shit.

I didn't list a single black or death metal band, and I still listed the best bands, so there.

I agree on Elvenking though, but only the first album.

 

[no country for old wainds]

almost all the bands i posted aren't extreme metal either, mostly amazing trad

 

[Personified Hatred]

I wanna suggest other two good bands:

Opera IX (Black Metal)
Nefarium (Black Metal)

 

[waif]

I like Elvenking's later stuff, but I agree that it doesn't come close to their first.

Black Flame. How's the new album?

Oh yes!!! Opera IX!! I can't belive I forgot to mention them. Tha Black Opera (2000) is such an atmospheric BM album. Cadaveria is my type of woman!!

Black Flame. How's the new album?

Fantastic, get it.

 

[Omni]

Yeah, but what does the album sound like?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

It sounds like death-y black metal, kind of a DSO-like drawl in the slower sections, very "catchy" and well written songs with very dark and evil riffs. Doesn't even sound like humans playing it.

 

[Omni]

I knew it would sound something like Deathspell Omega once I saw the album title, song titles and album art. I remember saying that earlier.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah it's very "orthodox"-y.

 

[Omni]

I hate that term, but the categorization seems to work well since most of them have a somewhat similar sound and image.

 

[sevag00]

Fantastic, get it.

Yes Sir!
