Question for those of you seriously into black metal...

[Necromunchkin]

En Vind Av Sorg, Black Winter Day, Nicodemix, anyone else. I'd like to hear your recommendations about any most excellent black metal that's come out in the past couple of years. Don't worry about classics, I'm just looking for the stuff I've missed being so out of the scene lately.

So, what should I put on my "NEED" list? :Spin:

Finnugor

my thoughts on finnugor... http://www.royalcarnage.com/Reviews/blackwinterday/finnugor/dawn_rev.htm

necromunchkin... this is going to be a bit difficult considering i don't know what style of black metal you're into. i'll just assume that it is REAL bm and not fake sissy stuff like dimmu.

i'll try to limit it to 10 semi-obscure/overlooked albums that any self-respecting bm fan should hear...

DRUDKH - Autumn Aurora
LUX OCCULTA - Forever Alone Immortal
GRAND BELIAL'S KEY - Judeobeast Assassination
WOODS OF YPRES - Against the Seasons
ASTROFAES - Ancestors' Shadows
BERGTHRON - Jagdheim
NEGURA BUNGET - Sala Molska
SETHERIAL - Nord
HELHEIM - Jormundgand
NOKTURNAL MORTUM - A Taste of Victory


that should get you started

Forest stream are good...

 

[Black Winter Day]

forest stream are keyboard-laden doom metal... or are you just joking around?

 

[Will Bozarth]

meh, i like Finnugor

 

[Necromunchkin]

Yes, real black metal. I've never much liked Dimmu, been much more into Graveland and Nokturnal Mortum and Carpathian Forest and the like. I actually already have Setherial's "Nord" so we definitely have the commonality there, I'll put the rest of the recommendations on my list and check them out.

Grand Belial's Key, haven't heard any of their music in years.

Thanks for the recommendations, all of you.

of course i'm joking around
*shifty eyes*

heh, i don't know much about BM, admittedly.....


but forest stream are good... *walks away*

 

[Spikes]

Nergal!!!!11

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

behemoth! well.. they are more black/death

 

[Necromunchkin]

Behemoth is a good band, though, but I think you're right that they're a black/death mix. But I do have several of their albums. I just have this strong need to add much more true black metal to my collection.

 

[Black Winter Day]

of all the bands i listed, i'd probably reccomend negura bunget and drudkh the most. total atmospheric songwriting perfection. get any and all you can get your hands on by these 2 bands.

 

[Necromunchkin]

Shall keep that in mind. Didn't some of the members of Drudkh used to be in Hate Forest?

 

[Black Winter Day]

yep, and still are. that's where the similarity between the bands end, though.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Woods of Ypres are pretty good

What Sensei BWD said.

 

[Black Winter Day]

you are on the way to destr-- i mean... wisdom.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

slowly, but surely, and trying not to sound too much like an idiot to others of greater knowledge than I while on my path to ultimate wisdom.

Maldoror is pretty good if you're into Emperor and symphonic black metal

Alghazanath (I butchered that) is really good too
