Lookin for any recommendations

[LordDarkPoet]

Hi; I'm LDP and have been lurking here on and off. Figured I would post for some recommendations; I am particularly interested in any bands that might harken back to Bergtatt era Ulver, something akin to what Agalloch has been doing lately. Of course I'm big into what Opeth does, especially with the acoustic guitar work; I really dig the newest Novembre album as well. Anyone willing to recommend me something that I haven't come across yet?

[Thorns of Sorrow]

lol u listed all the bands I was going to reccomend

Yeah, I've been honing my taste for about 2 year now. Currently I am entering the detailing stage: bands like Empyrium, Primordial, Mourning Beloveth really do it nowadays. I also love everything In The Woods has done, and I know there are bands out there I'm just tired of going through each label page one by one, and browsing through mp3.com

I second the recommendations for Primordial and In the Woods. Also check out Green Carnation, Hollenthon, Winds. If you can get your hands on it, try Golden Dawn's "The Art of Dreaming".

Also Neurosis.... lovely music.

 

[Parasite]

Garden Of Shadows is pretty cool. No where near as good as Opeth, but Chad has a good growl, very Mikeal-esq.

Grey Skies Fallen isn't bad, but the lead singer doesnt growl as much as I'd like him too, the rest of the time it sounds more like doom metal. "The Purest Form" is a good track.

Also try Mindrot
