Lovecraftian Metal

[EternalMetal]

Im looking for metal inspired by the macabre themes of the short horror stories by HP Lovecraft. Obvious recs such as Nile - Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka are welcome as I am currently drawing a blank as to the many Lovecraftian inspired metal acts and albums that I already know.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Portal



If that doesn't sound like the music of the Old Ones I don't know what will.

Obvious, but had to be posted;





Edit: Apparently Massacre - From Beyond is based on the works of Lovecraft

Axis of Perdition have some Lovecraft-themed material, and their music is macabre as hell:
