Here you can post recommendations or request rec's. However, you must try to list a link to some samples, I think that will make it easier for people to find out about some good music

Finding out that Robbie Williams actually has fans is sort of like discovering that some people get their rocks off by being pissed on.

Long out of print black metal - like a combination of first album Gehenna and early Behemoth. An interesting experiment in highly dramatic black metal. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Worth checking out nonetheless.

too bad gehenna is pretty awful, and early behemoth is pretty much guilty of everything you accused early Ulver of being.

Gehenna's first album is, while not outstanding by any means, consistently effective, particularly in its use of that instrument often violently abused by 'black metal' - the keyboard.
As for Behemoth - their first two albums accomplish what Ulver never managed - to add something to their influences (mid-period Bathory and early Enslaved) to evoke a similar spirit in a new (albeit more contemplative) fashion.

Grom is middle-of-the-road black metal - like a snapshot of a thousand other bands at the time. Sventeith and From the Pagan Vastlands are much more interesting records - particularly in their (still essentially) unique use of accoustic guitar.

yea...their sparce and elementary understanding and use of arpeggio licks overlapping their obviously handicapped understanding of power chords definitely tops Ulver's constantly haunting and (for their ages) impressive use of acoustic guitar, vocal harmonies and flute.
in other words...."0h 0k"
"Haunting and "impressive"? Nigga please. Ulver's habit of tacking on superfluous intros and interludes using 'non-traditional' instrumentation onto otherwise bland songs was technique already old and played out in 1994, and in no way matches the simple (but effective) way incorporation of accaustic guitar work into the heart of the actual music that gives Behemoth's early work its contemplative beauty.

(hoping sharing single songs for sampling purposes isn't going to be a big deal, but if it is...)

The music itself, as I've already pointed out, was the usual run of bad Darkthrone ripoff - the basic style of Under a Funeral Moon and Transilvanian Hunger with shorter, more rock friendly phrases and more consonant resolutions (the better to appeal to people with short attention spans).
The fact that they tried the (by then) ancient metal trick of tacking on intros with flutes and accoustic guitars (you know, the kind of thing that Bathory was doing in 1989 and Tormentor was doing in 1987 and...do you really want me to go on?) isn't terribly relevant - it certainly wasn't integral to the music.
Hey My Man Mahmoud:
You raise interesting points when it comes to BM. I'd love to read your thoughts on this band if you have time:
