pugna posted:edit: Also, I preordered the Blood of Kingu album from Supernal t'other day and expect it will be immense. The description of it on the Supernal site makes me spritzen in mein hosen: So it's a Ukranian Melechesh  I haven't even listened to Hate Forest but that description makes this sound very interesting.

Sirius Sam posted:How do people feel about Crystal Abyss's new album Word Of The Darkest Ages and Walknut's Graveforests And Their Shadows? I've had Walknut's album spinning since I it got a couple weeks ago, and it is amazing in my opinion. So is the new Crystal Abyss. This has been a good year for melodic BM. I'm usually a fan of most of the melodic BM I hear, the Crystal Abyss album was great on first listen but none of the songs really stood out for me. It's a good album but I can't say a great one, I'll check out Walknut though.

Gvaz posted:Just got some of Mirrorthrone's "Of Wind and Weeping" and it comes in a nice packaging, and Shining's "V" album too. drat I can't get enough of Shining, anyone know a band like them I should give a try? I thought you were talking about Mirrorthrone's new album  Has that leaked yet? The release date was supposed to be in March anyway.

Finally got to listen to Mirrorthrone's new album, Gangrene. I usually don't judge until a couple of listens but goddamn this is awesome.

It's called hipster metal because for whatever reason it just happens to appeal to them. I've never been to one, but everyone that's been to a Wolves In The Throne Room concert said it was more hipsters than metalheads.

Death Rotisserie posted:Darkspace - Dark Space III is out and it's the best BM album I've heard thus far this year. Ambient as hell but there are some loving killer riffs in here; totally unexpected. Yeah, it's a bit too ambient for my tastes but the album itself makes up for that.

deltawing posted:If you enjoy Sons of Northern Darkness, you're in luck because At the Heart of Winter and Damned in Black are both in the same vein. Highly recommended. Mirrorthrone's been pimped a lot in this and the other thread a lot of it was by me I think  I really like his newest album, unfortunately I cannot say the same for Keep of Kalessin's. It's not bad but I find myself just listening to Armada again.

WantlessPonder posted:I only know of one record store we have in Stockholm that would work like that, and at the same time actually have a decent range of black metal albums, but I forgot its name... I don't even know if it's still active these days. All other decent stores (that I know of) have had to close down unfortunately. And if I'd go to, for example, Rocks or Åhlens (popular store chains) they would have higher prices, and probably not have the albums I was looking for (and I've never seen any "used bins" at these places). This way I at least got 98% of the stuff I was looking for, and scored a book for $1! Man all of Europe has super expensive CDs. I was in Sweden, Norway and Finland and you would think Metal would be cheaper there; $20 for an EP?!

Misogynist posted:There's a lot of different styles, so here's my typical laundry list of avant-garde/progressive metal in the black/viking vein so you can pop on MySpace or wherever and find them for yourself: Good list, but another pretty commonly mentioned one is Unexpect - the easiest introduction to their music is the WE_Invaders EP, their latest album is really jumpy. Also the vocalist from Peccatum released a new album under the name Starofash (It's Ihsahn's wife!) It's similar to Peccatum without the metal aspects so its still worth checking out.

anticake posted:Wasn't Gallows Gallery received so poorly they got dropped from their label? The followup, also alliteration at work Hangman's Hymn, is pretty awesome though. They left their label because the production the label did on it was so poo poo.

Gr31lly posted:Yeah, it was bland and uninteresting. Having folk elements that for once aren't European in origin = bland and uninteresting? For what it's worth I like Darkestrah a lot for at least trying something different. I like the music too though.

Gr31lly posted:No, the album just never seemed to take off, the pacing is too singular. I know that there are a lot of bands that don't use European instrumentation/rhythms but it's nowhere near as widespread as the European ones - I'll check out Xibalba, though

Stoo posted:
I've only heard their latest album but I liked it, it's sort of a bunch of other rock subgenres mixed with black metal, which is becoming increasingly common. Different songs switch it up but I can definitely hear some similarities to Primordial, Anathema and Amesoeurs.

Morbid Florist posted:eh I saw that documentary but to be honest the only thing I liked about it was seeing these countries. the music is nothing special. I appreciate what they're going through but to me it was more informative about the region than it was about anything music related. There are lots of metal bands in the middle east, the only reason it's a life or death thing in Iraq is because leaving your house in the morning is a life or death thing in Iraq Still enjoyed the movie though

QPZIL posted:I picked up the White/Grey vinyls at the last Agalloch show I was at, it's one of my prized posessions now. The White is such an amazing album. Man I have the limited edition of Ashes that came with pics of the band looking forlorn and an actual bag of ash (lol) and even I know that their non album releases are generally not that great. I dig all the main albums (Pale Folklore, Mantle, Ashes, Marrow) But I remember people being so dissapointed by The Gray they thought Agalloch would never release another good album.
