Metal Albums You're Digging

I've really been digging Ghoul's Splatterthrash album as of late, not a big fan of much newer thrash but this band is made up of a couple members from Impaled whose album Mondo Medicale is pretty sick

This is the best black metal album I've ever heard.

I'd known about it for a long time and always put off listening to it, even though it'd always find mention while I search for new music. It didn't have very good reviews on average at the metal archives but then again those guys are just lame all around, and I've regretted not listening to a lot of albums sooner based on poor scores from there. Reviews and ratings really shouldn't mean much of anything to be honest, you have your own ears I'm pretty sure.

Only just listened for the first time last weekend and was blown away twelve times over. And it was so good I wouldn't hesitate to call it my new favorite. It's completely original yet building off foundations already laid in black metal all at the same time. From severely hypnotic drones and riff repetition to gloriously epic slaying.

100/100

"My eyes were jaded, so close to the center I could not see"

Something about the very first line of this album. It's chilling. Though it's not any super distinct style, the way it's sung seems o effective, the way it just slithers in there. The vocals, the lyrics, **** cuts deep. It does a more than amazing and perfect job setting the tone for what you're about to experience over the next our or so.

I've been on a Native Construct kick, really cool stuff!

I love this album so much it doesn't even make sense

It's another example of perfectly executed black metal IMO, and in a genre full of snow boners, Drudkh are distinct with the Autumn themes. At the same time they create totally unique sounding and fitting riffs, with the deeply warm tone, it's definitely top caliber bm guitar work. It's also repetitive but not to massive degrees, it's just a 40 minute album, and it features some amazing moments.

there's one of the best black metal albums released from the last few years I think. It's super pretty and super French (a Neige project, sounding like "Murmuüre + Alcest + Peste Noire", someone said that on RYM and I like it)

I like this as fuck.

Even though there's badass technical, melodic, and blackened death metal albums out there, listening to one that is literally a top notch example of all three is like a revelation

kudos
