And that douchebag from Velvet Cacoon stole all the songs appearing on that Pyha album from a female indie folk singer from Portland that no one has ever seen play live or heard of prior to this very moment.

Speaking of which, VC's new (real) album is apparently FINALLY going to come out. There's a sample here: http://www.fmp666.com/index2.html I guess it's supposed to be 2 discs and released in October. This is good news, but the preview track "Funeral Noir" was pretty disappointing. If the whole album is just ambient synth or whatever it'll be a huge letdown. The three real Velvet Cacoon albums are nothing short of amazing in my book, and I always thought the fake-albums thing was pretty funny because I don't know how anyone would believe it was the same band.

Doesn't the originally-linked page on Pyha say that most of the compositions and recordings are several years ago (i.e. done when the guy was 14 or thereabouts) and that he is currently in the army. Reading comprehension and all that.

Anyway, feel free to hurrrrr all you want but I only last night had a listen to Drudkh's Autumn Aurora. What an interesting album. Conceptually really cool.

Early Drudkh, "Rainchants" by Skogyr, and if you REALLY like Walknut and can handle extreme rawness and minimalism it would be worth checking out anything from Forest, which is probably the most Walknut-like of Kaldrad's past projects.

What all new worth hearing has come out this year? All I've checked I think is the new mirrorthrone and Keep Of Kallesin, even though Gangrene didn't really catch me even as close to as much as Carriers of Dust, but eh.

Also what do you guys think of the new Abigail Williams tracks? mainstream lolo aside, I can't deny this poo poo, and their newer poo poo is A LOT more BM influenced then the older stuff I heard, and by BM I mean Emperor. Even the loving artwork is Emperor influenced/worship.

HELL NO BRAH, THAT poo poo IS METALCORE! FUCKEN SCENE KIDS TRYING 2 BE DIMMU CUZ THEY THINK THEY HARD

Just kidding, I like it. They are very capable musicians and have some pretty good songs. Actually I happened to see them in concert and that was what persuaded me to check them out again, because they were insane. They remind me a lot of Stormlord, and also Emperor like you said. The only thing I don't care for too much is the high-pitched vocals some of the time, but they seem to be better on the album than the EP. Also the singer had a mullet. A really small one, but a mullet none the less.

I really liked both new Menace Ruines, Cult of Ruins and In Vulva Infernum. New Vordr was good too, if you like more straight forward stuff. New Wold or Taake aren't bad either.

Weltenfeind, the split between Absurd, Grand Belial's Key and Sigrblot, finally got released and it's quite good. I'm particularly impressed by Absurd's contribution - it's the best they've sounded in years.

New Taake? Didn't even know about that, I heard they were taking a long hiatus due to Host wanting to work on Ragnarok more. And Abigail Williams, their Legend EP which was all they had out for a few years was pretty drat "core-y", and the guitars didn't really have the BM feel like they do now.

Yeah, that's from the new CD. All his videos are pretty ridiculous. I'm pretty sure he was with them when I saw them live because you could see him pretty well. Everybody was talking afterward about "wow that drummer was amazing!" and so on.

Highlights: Mord, Kampfar, Vreid, Marduk, and Vader. I know these aren't new bands, I've just never listened to them.

Ahhhh Kampfar is awesome. I got one of their CDs a while back but I always forget about it, though it's incredible. And of course Vader is essential listening for anybody into the ol' rockmetal. Are they coming out with a new album sometime soon?

Listen to Pagan Hammer, I release his music and he sounds like Summoning meets Graveland but streamlined and less pretentious than either.

Well this is the internet, so people are probably still angry about the whole "fake albums" debacle, but Velvet Cacoon's Northsuite and especially Genevieve are some of the most critically acclaimed, and certainly best in my estimation, ambient black-meatal albums. It doesn't sound like Summoning but it's nothing if not ambient.

None of this may be up your alley, but you may enjoy Blut aus Nord, Sieghetnar, Karna, Kataxu, Profanum, Xasthur, Leviathan, Beatrik, Aäkon Këëtrëh, Caïna, Negură Bunget,Abyssmal Sorrow, Striborg, Alcest, Drudkh, Eldrig, Empire Auriga, Forgotten Tomb, Fear of Eternity, Funeral Mourning, Hypothemia, Isengard, Lurker of Chalice, Mütiilation, Moëvöt, Nortt, Paysage d'Hiver, Raate, Ruined (or Pyha or whatever), Sacrificia Mortuorum, Sad, Taake, Tyrant, Veil, Velvet Cacoon, Vinterriket, Wolves in the Throne Room

Though I admit a few of these perhaps fits into what some call "depressive bm" I don't think it's that much of a stretch to like it.

Drudkh, Velvet Cacoon, Vinterriket, Wolves in the Throne Room (gently caress what goons say, this band is good), Alcest, some Leviathan, Nortt, Isengard, Hypothemia, Moëvöt are all points to check out, though they aren't like Summoning clones if that's what you're wanting in particular.

Admittedly I've never heard Sworn but it sounds pretty good.

Going through my foobar I see these that kinda sound like what you posted:

Melechesh, Impaled Nazarene, Catamenia, Balam-Akab, Dissection, Keep of Kalessin, Khold, Lyfthrasyr, Naglfar, Slechtvalk, Wolven Ancestry.

Tell me if any of that helped :shobon:

That's a monster of a list. It'll probably take a while to get through that, but I'm sure I'll end up enjoying at least a few of those bands based on sheer numbers. Only one I've heard is Wolves in the Throne Room and I think they're just dandy. Thanks.
