Fun Stuff > BAND
A recommendation thread about black metal!
Johnny C:
What about Bill Murray?
turtlspinr:
keep listening to Ulver.
Ditch Wolves In The Throne Room. Listen to Woods Of Ypres instead. They do it better and have been doing it for WAY longer.
What type of black metal recommendations do you want? Ultra true/grim/necro/Burzum-esque minimal production stuff, trendy Wolves In The Throne room type stuff, or crazy fast stuff like Dark Funeral?
Der Golem:
Hmm, I thought Woods of Ypres only had one album and one demo out. Besides not really sounding all that much like Wolves in the Trone Room.
I would reccomend their demo though, it is pretty good. Their LP is not so good, for every black metal riff on there you get two cheesy rock riffs.
The best reccomendation here would be Agalloch. They are comparable to the first Ulver LP. Their first 2 albums are very folk inspired but the last one has more to do with post rock.
If you want to branch out of the folk/black scene (and I am assuming you have little to no experience with the genre as a whole, otherwise I shoul not have to tell you about these bands), then I reccomend listening to Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss and Dissection - Storm of the Lights Bane. Burzum for long, slow and atmospheric songs, Dissection for some great tremolo picked melodies. That should give you an idea of where you want to head next.
bbqrocks:
Burzum, black/folk? Theres not that much folk in it. IMO, falkenbach, windir, alkonost, menhir and mithotyn are vital bands to check out in the black/folk subgenre.
Der Turm, der Leute frass:
The underground BM-scene ist full ignorant Nazi fucktards, but beside that, there are many excellent Bands:
Nagelfar (with e, from Germany, NOT Naglfar)
Negura Bunget
Deathspell Omega
Arcturus
Shining
Dark Throne
Emperor
Immortal
Summoning
Satyricon
Siebenbürgen
