A recommendation thread about black metal!
Uber Ritter:
They are as grim and frostbitten as the gay bars of which they sing.

Twilight is a super group composed of some of American true cvlt black metal's luminaries, including Malefic (Xasthur), Wrest (Leviathan) and others.
Also this myspace has all but the final track of Weakling's only album on it:

And somewhere there was a page that had MP3's of some of the best of the San Francisco metal scene. Leviathan, Hammers of Misfortune (not black metal but their first album has a shitload of tremelo picking, as well as some of the best metal album art ever) and Weakling. But I can't find it.

I like Woods of Ypres, but damn their lyrics are silly. Maybe it's just that ALL BM lyrics are ridiculous and WoY's happen to be decipherable, but yeah. Silly.
Also I second everyone's Deathspell Omega recommendations. I feel like they're the closest thing to classical music the genre's birthed thus far- really complex arrangements, impressive compositional and technical skills, and oppressive as fuck. I am thinking specificially of Si Monumentum here.

Am I the only one who found Deathspell Omega to be boring? Whatever, I suppose.
