Ancient Rites 'Blasfemia eternal'
Somebody mentioned 'Dim Carcosa'. It is also a great great album but 'Blasfemia eternal' is more brutal (don't worry, melodies are still there). Plus, nostalgic reasons.

Oh, I like pretty much everything (actually, scrap the pretty much) Ancient Rites ever did, but in my mind the only thing that can really challenge Dim Carcosa is 'And The Hordes Stood as One'. The thing about Dim Carcosa is that it is literally perfect. I can't think of any changes I'd make to the track order (ommissions or re-arrangements) and very few to the songs themselves (there's a few flourishes from the live versions that could have been pretty sweet on the album). It's the kind of formula that so many people have been trying to get right since, welll, the first Cradle of Filth album, but AR get the balance perfect. It's the viking what does it.

Also, anyone who hasn't got a massive boner for Immortal is nuts. NUTS I SAY!

Kai:
I just didn't get super into them when I first listened. I'll try em out a gain, after I download an album or something. any reccomendation?

Misereatur:
Try At the Heart of Winter.
Thats the album that gave me, as khar said, a bigass boner over immortal.

Although they look ridiculous in pictures they know how to make fine metal.

Zaarin:
I'd list them in some sort of order of "goodness", but I'm too indecisive/lazy, so I'll just sort them by artist:

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works 85-92 (1992)
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme (1967)
Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (1969)
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain (1971)
Funkadelic - One Nation Under a Groove (1979)
Stan Getz & Joćo Gilberto - Getz/Gilberto (1963)
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladyland (1968)
Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsys (1970)
Kraftwerk - Computer World (1981)
Kraftwerk - Trans-Europe Express (1977)
Love - Forever Changes (1967)
Bob Marley - Survival (1978)
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (1991)
Pink Floyd - Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967)
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon (1973)
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut
Primal Scream - Screamadelica (1991)
The United States of America - The United States of America (1968)
The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967)
The Velvet Underground - White Light/White Heat (1968)
The Who - Quadrophenia (1973)
Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention - We're Only In It For the Money (1968)

The fact that there are 23 albums there is irrelevant!

Yes, his playing is some of the most masturbatory I've ever heard, and the guy who does the vocals on "I Am a Viking" is goddamned hilarious, particularly the opening "oh yeah".
