a decade of black metal in review[views:23504][posts:93]___________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 3:38pm - arilliusbm ""] Inquisition is stunning live. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 4:18pm - c.DeaD ""] I loved "Ordo Ad Chao". It sounded like Blasphemer was listening to way too much French stuff, but it's got an awesome atmosphere and Attilas vox are fantastic. Great riffage as well. Lugubrum-"Heilege Dwazen" and Lifelover-"Erotik" immediately come to mind as far as recent black metal oriented stuff that I highly dig. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 4:20pm - c.DeaD ""] Yeti said:that reminds me i love Funeral Mist - Salvation as well. Just like Watain, overrated and boring. Though, I really like the songs at first, then they just bore the shit out of me as the record goes on. Have yet to hear the latest one. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 4:41pm - goatcatalyst ""] i was loving the new Funeral Mist when it came out but honestly haven't listened to it in a while. i really like what he does with atmospherics... not typical for the genre. and the perverse religious themes go beyond the genre standard |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 4:46pm - arilliusbm ""] whats the genre standard? |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 5,2010 11:05pm - ArilliusBM ""] there's plenty of different styles of BM so I'm not sure which one you're alluding to.. anyway, here's some more that I can remember... my apologies if they're mentioned above: Alghazanth - Subliminal Antenora (meh, maybe not.. some songs are killer) Asmegin - Hin Vonderde Sod & So Asmodee - Symptomes De Ruine (crazy drunken french black metal frenzy) Astrofaes - Heritage Black Candle - Nightfire (came out in 99 I believe, not sure why I always liked it) Blodsrit - Ocularis Infernum Blut aus Nord - The Work Which Transforms God Camulos - Spiel Des Blutes Carpathian Forest - Defending the Throne of Evil Celestia - Apparitia-Sumptuous Spectre (are they still coming around here??) Clandestine Blaze - Deliverers of Faith Corpus Christii - The Torment Continues Countess - Heilig Vuur Dark Fortress - Tales From Eternal Dusk Darkspace - ALL RELEASES Darkthrone - Too Old Too Cold - FUCKING GRAVEYARD SLUT Deathspell Omega - Si Momentum Requires, Circumspice Dissection - Maha Kali single (this version of Maha Kali blows the album's away IMO) Drautran - Unter dem Banner der Nordwinde demo Drudkh - Autumn Aurora Embraced - Within Enid - Seelenspiegel (not exactly black metal, more on the avantgarde side) Enslaved - Mardraum - Beyond The Within (not black metal, as they clearly point out all the time) Eternal Majesty - From War to Darkness Forefather - Ours is the Kingdom Forgotten Tomb - Love's Burial Ground Foscor - Entrance to the Shadows' Village Frozen Shadows - Hantises Funeris Nocturnum - From the Aspect of Darkly Illuminated Graveland - Memory And Destiny Grom - Pagan War Machine demo Holmgang - Runens Advarsel (similar production to Ulver's Nattens) Krohm - A World Through Dead Eyes Krieg - Sono Lo Scherno Lunar Aurora - Elixir of Sorrow, Zyklus, and Andacht Lunar Aurora & Paysage D'Hiver - (Split) Macabre Omen - The Ancient Returns Magog - Hymns to the Ancient Menhir - Hildebrandslied Misteltein - Divine. Desecrate. Complete (although it sounds a little too much like Dimmu's SBD) Mutant - The Aeonic Majesty Mystic Circle - Open the Gates of Hell Nazgul - When the Wolves Return to the Forest ... the spanish one Negura Bunget - 'n Crugu Bradului and Om Nightbringer - Temple of Not (SPLIT) - Rex ex Ordine Throni Nocternity - A Fallen Unicorn (EP - atmospheric as fuck) Norden - Glory in Flames Oathean - Ten Days In Lachrymation Odal - Sturmes Brut Ondskapt - Dödens Evangelium Pantheon - Vargrstrike Rakoth - Jabberworks (avantgarde) Rivendell - The Ancient Glory Root - Madness Of The Graves (close enough..) Sear Bliss - Forsaken Symphony, Glory and Perdition, The Arcane Odyssey Shining - III Siebenbürgen - Delictum Sirius - Aeons of Magick Sorhin - Apokalypsens Ängel Taake - Over Bjorgvins Graater Himmerik Trollech - Synove lesu Urgehal - Through Thick Fog Till Death Velvet Cacoon - Genevieve Valar - Magic and Wyrmfire (for summoning fans, but not as good) Woodtemple - The Call From The Pagan Woods Wyrd - Songs Of The Northern Gale demo Xasthur - To Violate The Oblivious ....this thread made me realize that most of the shit I listen to is in the 90s. I'm not hugely familiar with that many newer BM bands; there's plenty of them. Germany has a GREAT scene right now, as well as France. |

| _______________________________ [Jan 2,2011 8:47pm - mike29 ""] Don't mean to shit on your list, Ancient Master, but the Weakling album came out in 95 and the Wind of the Black Mountains in 96, I believe. Good albums, though. Judeobeast Assassination is my top BM album for this decade. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 2,2011 9:14pm - ancient master ""] Weakling Dead as Dreams Full-length, 2000 material recorded in 1998 but released after the band broke up in 2000 wind of the black mountains yes you are right, black sun shall rise came out in 00's though, which I guess is what I should have put, however I do not enjoy that album as much. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 2,2011 9:25pm - aril NLI (sXe) ""] ancient, I was half joking about bm this decade. there's been plent of good releases. I'd still argue that 90s bm was better, but this past decade had been good. I certainly don't like the direction most black metal is going in, but then again, I don't listen to blackmetal as much anymore. everything has been done and most bm is emotionless and meaningless now. plus hipsters just ruin everything for me :-( |
| _______________________________ [Jan 2,2011 9:31pm - mike29 ""] I stand corrected. For some reason I thought Dead As Dreams came out earlier. I'll throw in the new Profanatica as well. Not exactly groundbreaking, but evil and dark as fuck. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 2,2011 9:35pm - ancient master ""] yeah hipsters suck but i dont care what they like/ dont like, theyll be on to the next thing when bm isnt cool anymore |
