Agreed, I liked both of the new releases just fine. Nothing groundbreaking, but they came back cold and black and evil as ever.

I've been listening to Mayhem's Chimera album recently. I forgot how much this album kicks rear end and Mayhem's recent material kicks rear end.

Let's hope that he never gets a paying gig from one of the big great bands again.

Neither of the gorgoroth or immortal albums is anywhere near as good as Pest's Tenebris Obortis. I mean, I fully expected that, but more of you really should check it out.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trV6Ewu2M18 Why does this exist, and perhaps more importantly, what on earth was the creator thinking? This video creates a deep philosophical crisis, which is furthered by the startling atmosphere of the song itself. I just wanted to youtube a song to show it to someone and this is what I get?!

Anybody got any recommendations for some black metal like Satyricon's Nemesis Divina? Usually I prefer more straight up black metal stuff like early Mayhem and Immortal but unlike most symphonic black metal, the stuff in Nemesis Divina actually seems more or less apart of the song and not a gimmick.

Check out Over Björgvin Gråter Himmerik by Taake. It always reminds me of Nemesis Divina. I asked a while ago if anyone knew anything else that sounded like this but got no feedback.

Very straight-forward, no bullshit, makes it sound religious. The Gorgoroth album is very good.

Their 2005 album Doedskvad is good too. Nattestid Ser Porten Vid from 1999 is really good but the production is lovely. That's all I've heard. Just relistening to it while I post makes me wonder why I haven't listened to these albums more- they're loving awesome.

Taake is a great band, one of the best current Norwegian bands in my opinion. In addition to the recommendations already made, their eponymous album from 2008 is really good as well.

Yah, the guy behind Taake is a bit of a ridiculous assclown but he has not yet made an album I haven't liked. And hey, this is the perfect time of year to load 'em up on the mp3 player. Thanks for the reminder. Groke fucked around with this message at 12:48 on Oct 9, 2009 |

OK fine I will do my metal homework you slave driver you   Which Ossadogva album was it you recommended as well, instead of Born From A Tomb? You, in return, need to listen to Nightbringer - Death And The Black Work. Lovely dense slab of an album which reminds me a lot of Darkspace. And Nyktalgia, too, they're gorgeous DSBM. I don't see either of those on your Last.fm charts so hopefully they'll be new to you.

For anyone into depressive stuff, Miserere Luminis just released their debut album, and it's sounding pretty drat good. The band is a side-project featuring musicians from Gris and Sombres Forêts. Also, I'm seeing Gorgoroth in Trondheim next monday, after seeing them twice with Gaahl and King. Even though I was a bit underwhelmed by the new album, I must admit I'm really looking forwards to seeing them with Pest.

So, I just got into Walknut and their album, Graveforests And Their Shadows, and wow I'm really digging it. I love the, well I can't really describe it, the sort of distorted noise in the background. I guess that's why they call it atmospheric because basically I could listen to this forever. Any recommendations on similar atmospheric stuff with like, that noisy distored sound in the background? I can't quite qualify it right now but perhaps it does have a name...

I'm throwing these out there in the off chance you haven't heard them already: - Any Darkspace - Drudkh (particularly Forgotten Legends) - Some of The Angelic Process feels a little reminiscent to some parts on GATS

Yeah, I figured one weird question in the interview would be alright. And the theories we threw around for why anyone would ask that were A) Germans look alike, B) the question was thought up in a drunken stupor, and C) all Germans are somehow related to one another. They didn't seem offended by the question (thankfully), just confused.

The rough clips from the band's myspace sound rather promising... DIMMU BORGIR Frontman, Ex-GORGOROTH Bassist Join Forces In OV HELL  Out of Norway's biggest and darkest metal bands rises OV HELL. This group of Satan's all-stars has been sharpening their teeth in some of black metal's most influential bands for many years. Known as key figures in bands such as DIMMU BORGIR and GORGOROTH, Shagrath and King have come together to bring forward a new chapter in Norwegian black metal history. OV HELL will carry on in the same tradition for which King and Shagrath are known, but the collaboration between the two will mark a new era for them both. Frost, Ice Dale and Teloch have been recruited for the first full-length release. The album, whcih is due in early 2010 via Indie Recordings, will contain all of the power and blast beats worthy of their evil pedigrees. Expect an assault on all false gods and hypocrisy that is of this world today. "The first OV HELL release will contain music I've worked on in my GORGOROTH and GOD SEED years," says King. "It's been a little hell to actually see this music form into a band, so the name of the band is quite suitable. Through the first song I got from Shagrath, I knew that he would be the perfect man to join forces with. He has strong individual qualities and a strong will to power. I am very positive that when we finish up this album it will be an album that won't sound like anything we have done before, and with a quality that won't stand back from anything presented in black metal earlier!" "With both of our demanding music careers and other projects, timing was not on our side," adds Shagrath. "After last year's Inferno festival, King and I yet again joined forces to brainstorm our need to collaborate our passion for dark art. Over the course of the past year, King sent me demo ideas that were so inspiring it made me put my skeptic feelings aside. I wasn't sure if I wanted to have another black metal project but my unquenchable thirst to explore my darkest beast launched the birth OV HELL. The majestic OV HELL has become a band that reflects our roots, raw, ugly, arrogantly blasphemous with uncompromising truth from two influential Norwegian musicians needing to express our primitive side, straight out OV HELL." Two new tracks, "Devil's Harlot" and "Ghosting", from the yet-untitled upcoming album, has been uploaded to the band's MySpace page. https://www.myspace.com/ovhell OV HELL studio lineup: * Shagrath (DIMMU BORGIR, CHROME DIVISION) - Vocals * King (GOD SEED, GORGOROTH, JOTUNSPOR, I, SAHG, AUDREY HORNE) - Bass * Ice Dale (ENSLAVED, I, AUDREY HORNE, TRINACRIA, DEMONAZ) - Guitar * Frost (SATYRICON, 1349) - Drums * Teloch (NIDINGR, GOD SEED, 1349, UMORAL) – Guitar

Baron Von Ghoulosh posted:OV HELL I'm skeptical. I can't loving stand Shagrath, but the rest of the line-up is solid as hell. With King's writing, along with Frost's, Ice's, and Teloch's playing, this band should be a home run. Don't know though, something isn't sitting right with me. I'll admit the tracks sound pretty good, and the album will probably be worth a listen.

I took a swing at Walknut based on this as I haven't been all too keen on the ideology of the band before. I really like the bass drone in the background, I know what you mean. You've had some recommendations posted but they don't have the same kind of depth and warmth to it (maybe excepting The Angelic Process, but that's not really metal and certainly not BM).

Yea, the recommendations aren't the best. It's hard to find a band with a similar sound, I'd really love to hear more suggestions because this has been one of my favorite CDs in a VERY long time. The guitar tone on the production is just massive. I can't get enough of it.

So, my brothers and sisters in I need some more melodic/folk tinged black metal. I'm a tad burnt out on the Unholy Trinity of Borknagar/Vintersorg/Solefald, and I'm looking for something different. Bonus points if they shriek in foreign languages and/or use bizarre instruments. (For the record, I also like Darkthrone). Something like the bastard child of Darkthrone and Alcest would be ideal. Thanks!
