Man, I can't wait for the new Taake and Leviathan albums! Apparently the Leviathan album has been done for a while, but Moribund is just sitting on it for some reason... HURRY UP!

This is more of a Recommendations Thread question, but you guys will be more to the point...

So I want to get into Darkthrone but don't know where to begin, and I'm told that their early/mid/late periods are all very different (aren't they like a crust punk band now?). Is the only route in A Blaze In the Northern Sky, or is there another door to take? I'm not huge into BM in general, so anything that's super lo-fi or cheesy is probably a bad route. Punk or death inspired is good. Help?

I would say start out with Ravishing Grimness. The whole album is just so drat catchy!

Its been a little less than 10 years since I spent 10+ years listening to metal 24/7, so I'm a bit out of the loop.

poo poo like:

Taake - Nattestid/Bjoergvin/Doedskvad
Leviathan - Tenth Sublevel.../Massive Conspiracy...

were pretty much my absolute sweet-spots before I dipped out. What have missed in the last years?

2009 was probably when I stopped actively following stuff.

Edit: hahaha, obviously there are probably a million great albums, but I mean similar in production and style to the mentioned albums.

Fair enough.

Already doing that plus jumping down plenty of bandcamp rabbit holes. Just thought maybe someone might have something they wanted to shout out.

Finding new stuff is hard :effort:

Makes me wonder how big of a role nostalgia plays in the older stuff I listen to.

I'm way more critical now, and let fewer things into the mix.

Regardless, point taken.

Sweet, thanks. Yeah, I followed Leviathan and Taake loosely through the years.

Found some newer Chaos Moon material. Randomly found Batushka a few days ago, so already seeing some similarities.
