Nice release by these two acts, Portugal’s Bosque plays blackened funeral doom, very spacey composition with some haunting vocals; very atmospheric. Senthil from the states performs some tortured black doom; the highlight are definitely the truly abysmal vocals, all together making quite a psychedelic experience!
All in all a worthy release.
Excellent black metal from Greece, this is their first album; great composition with epic touches and piercing vocals; truly an amazing release. Highly recommended!!!
Another great split release featuring Vrolok, this one is with Kult Ov Azazel; KoV performs some nice fast black metal, the live tracks are great, also features a Sodom cover; Vroloks material sounds a lot like Soul Amputation, which is great, pure raw dark black metal!!
Great split album between these two occult entities, Emit presents some of the most focused work I heard from them, not as abstract as the other works; they really create an eerie dark mood, personally some of my favorite songs by them are on this one. Vroloks side is pure dark black metal, the material is as good as any by them.
Another nice thing about this release is that both artists create a similar dark atmosphere, so it’s almost like listening an album by the same artist.
Satanic black metal from Sweden, amazing riff-driven album, the songs have excellent composition, the sound is perfect and it gives the album a real malignant feel. This is right up there with the best Swedish acts. Recommended!!
Another project from the grade and famous Ukrainian Black Metal musician Roman Saenko, leader of bands like Drudkh and Hate Forest. This thing is something different as we usually know from his production, but it's still a must for fans of this legendary musician. You should make your own opinion in this case...
“concept” album by this mysterious American band, this is a “musical journey” of Nazi Germany through WW2; Excellent release full of great songs, the production is great and everything has a really nice crisp sound; The music is mostly raw dark black metal with some really great experimental touches that make it truly unique, also throughout the album are various samples of WW2 that create a nice mood.
A great, under looked, release that I highly recommend!
A new release by Corpus Christii.
New album by Darkthrone.
Superb “new” band from Germany, Isolation is another one of the bands that fuses doom and black metal with great results. Incredible composition and production with some truly tortured vocals(Think Silencer). Also, one of the members is the owner of the excellent label “Choirs of Delusion”.
Quality all around!
Atmospheric black metal from Belgium, great release full of excellent songs that just ooze with atmosphere, the production is quite raw, but I wouldn’t have it any other way; the release has a really unique sound, something about the composition that really makes it special.
Released on a very nice looking red tape, definitely one of my most played tapes!
Great new band from Belgium consisting of Kilte members. Although they have only two releases out, both are very much worth your time. Trancelike Void performs some excellent slow atmospheric black metal, excellent composition that despite the repetitiveness never gets old; In my opinion this is better then Kilte, looking forward to future releases by them. Recommended!
Raw Russian black metal, buzzing malevolent occult music with excellent vocals, nothing new but done right and with the right spirit!!!
Excellent band from England, started out as experimental black metal, but after the last demo took a 180° turn and started playing some amazing doom laden black metal. Incredible songwriting, great vocals, all complimented by perfect production. Highly recommended!!!
Great split between these two amazing artists, Hunok performs some beautiful pagan ambient, extremely enjoyable (I recommend getting their demo I posted on the other blog); Marblebog graces us with some of their trademark mid-paced atmospheric black metal, as always they fail to disappoint.
- Říjen pod mlhou, Pustota, Trnový labyrint -New band from Australia consisting of some prominent figures in the scene, this is their debut album and it’s truly an exceptional piece of dark music; A perfect mix of doom and black metal, also heavy on the ambience creating a unique pitch black atmosphere of death and desolation.
Highly recommended for both doom and black metal fans!
Hailing from down under, consisting of two members (both playing in some quality bands), Austere plays some exceptional doomy black metal, spacey composition full of incredible passages creating a truly melancholic atmosphere. Brilliant!!
Finnish black metal compromised of prominent members from their scene, and you can hear that it features quality bm musicians, incredible composition with nice catchy riffs and great atmosphere!!
Tracklist:Exceptional band from Poland, their latest album really amazed me (and I believe not only me, since it’s the most downloaded album I ever uploaded hehe), now I finally got my hands on the entire discography; Atmospheric black metal with symphonic touches, all releases are of the highest quality, can’t recommend this enough! Essential!!!
Nightmarish black metal from this British band, industrialized horror landscapes forged by some great black metal, a bit avant-gardish but as dark as it can be, also great use of samples; Imagine if Anaal Nathrakh played too much Silent Hill before recording the Codex Necro and you get this. Great release and a great band!!
My favorite band from Spain (hell, one of my favorites in general), amazing all round greatness, from the excellent composition to the vocals, everything about them just oozes with quality, truly a gem among the sea of mediocrity.
Do yourself a favor and check them out!
