Ah, Velnias. I forgot that one.

And Inquisition - Invoking the Majestik Throne of Satan which is one of the best black metal albums I have altogether,
and their live set was simply breathtaking.
 
I'm getting tired of everyone who bitches and moans about "USBM" because all they know about black metal in the US are the shitty faggot bands every US black metal kid creams himself over (re: Xasthur, Nachtmystium, Leviathan, etc.). The US "scene" has obviously contributed more shit bands than any other place in the world, but that's because the US produces more shit in general. I never judge a country's musical worth based on its whole, however, but rather on the good that it has contributed. Bands like NME, Von, Profanatica, Havohej, Grand Belial's Key, Absu, Wind of the Black Mountains, Resuscitator, Demoncy, and others should be enough to make an argument that the US has made enough of a contribution to the genre to at least not be damned to be perpetually determined by the quality of the small handful of bands with the loudest voices.
