My fav black metal release so far is Mandragora by Botanist. It's one of the most interesting black metal albums from the decade as it doesnt even have any guitar on the album. Instead he uses a dulcimer along with Inquisition-esque vocals. It's really quite great and a step above his previous releases imo
Also along with some of the previously mentioned albums, Ive really enjoyed:
Das Tor by Paysage D'hiver
Anarchic by Skagos
Cypher by Spektr
Astral Glow by Zgard
Its been a pretty good year for black metal i say
