Dissection sounded much more Death metal than Black metal to me, however I still enjoyed the album. Negura Bunget's 'Om' is impressing me immensely.

Yeah they are a good blend of death metal and black metal. I think they are perfect for getting into black metal if you're already a death metal fan. So I think they are one of those bands that can really break the ice.

Another one thats good if you like death metal is Old Man's Child. They have a lot of death metal riffs in their songs.

Three bands I'd highly recommend:

Limbonic Art

Naglfar

Nokturnal Mortum

I got into an asian black metal group a while ago called "SIGH", they're not too bad and one I've been meaning to check out is "Aurora Borealis".

Anyone heard them? Recommendations as to where to start would be great.

Why all this emphasis on melodic black metal? People seem to forget that there were many great bands in the West playing black metal in the late 80s; Sarco***o, Blasphemy, Order from Chaos etc. all deserve far more praise than they get.

Here's some great non-melodic black metal albums:

(artist - album - youtube link)

Blasphemy - Gods of War http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKrxMS9aoNI

Sarco***o - INRI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v==KRVb4r3_6o

Angel Corpse - Hammer of the Gods http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZY5t_EezZY

Black Witchery - Desecration of the Holy Kingdom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4Fw5TfV6fs

To answer someone else's question, I like them but they are really commercial.
