Wolves in The Throne Room (metal, rock, vinyl, Radiohead)

They're my favorite "american" black metal band and I like to hear some alternating opinions about them from you guys, but none of that "Oh, those guys are hippie black metal wannabes." ****.

I don't want to hear any crap from you purist black-metal ****heads.

They haven't been around that long but they've put out some amazing stuff.

Diadem of 12 Stars

Queen of the Borrowed Light - 12:58
Face in a Night Time Mirror part I - 13:21
Face in a Night Time Mirror part II - 13:58
(A Shimmering Radiance) Diadem of 12 Stars - 20:22

and Two Hunters

Dea Artio - 5:58
Vastness and Sorrow - 12:12
Cleansing - 9:55
I Will Lay Down My Bones Among the Rocks and Roots - 18:16
To Reveal (Bonus track on the vinyl release) - 16:39

Their music is very soothing in a very savage way, brutal yet beautiful.
They're a mix of a somewhat avantgarde atmospheric music and vicious black metal, which combine to make each song a genuine masterpiece of composition.

I ****ing love WitTR they're blend of organic black metal and classical influences provide what you'd expect to be a soft listen. But they are one of the heaviest black metal bands of the new millenium, their contrast of harsh and soft bring something that the more mainstream black metal bands can never hope to achieve without losing the fringe audiences. WitTR is a black metal band for proper black metal fans.
