What would you suggest for someone who loves the old 1st Wave bands and has just realized how cool Gorgoroth are, and just wants some of that grimy, catchy, intense brutality, without all the fancy bull****, and also without the influences of death or thrash metal (i.e. no Aura Noir or Blasphemy, even though I do dig those bands)?

Edit: or at least I'm not looking for blackened thrash or death metal.

Not familiar with the last two, but I just happen to have downloaded albums by Taake and Tsjuder yesterday and today, and I've listened to a bit of 1349. And I own that Marduk album. Swedish black metal could be pretty brutal.

Here's some badass Icelandic black/death metal to blast your ass.

It's one of the best of the year totes, a little bit experimental and not at all formulaic. Dissonant like your Portals and your Ulcerates, but all the while very melodic and cold. And heavy. As ****. Very impressive musicianship and ideas and a great listen for fans of all the bands in their tag list: Deathspell Omega, Gorguts, Mitochondrion, Portal, Ulcerate.

Iceland is just a badass country anyway.

Hail Spirit Noir - Pneuma

So if you are interested in psychedelic black metal and start looking around for some, you'll probably see this name pretty often, because HSN are one if the big boys. This us their first album, and it is a dazzling display of zany black metal fun. You know how there's all kinds of whacky and playful prog rock, whether it's Canterbury stuff or Gentle Giant... This would be the black metal equivalent. These guys are out having a good time and making sick music at the same time.

But yeah, it's basically a prog rock album from a band like any if those, but to the extreme. It is honestly more prog than psych, but it's all intertwined very nicely.

**** yes. Just finished Pneuma, and have moved onto their second album, with their newest waiting in the wings. Thank god I now know I don't hate prog or else I might have dismissed this band, but they're ****ing sick. And even if they don't have that grim 'n' evil atmosphere of most black metal, the atmosphere they do have is phantasmagorically unsettling, kinda like Ved Buens Ende.

And thanks to them for my new awesome avatar.

All black metal carries an atmosphere but it's a very diverse field

You might be interested in

Sign - In Somniphobia

Yeah I'm sure we all know Sigh, but very rarely do I see people talking about my favorite album of theirs. Japan's turn for prog rock by way of black metal. They've come to be known for erratic genre blending from musical polar opposites (disco black metal) and are praised for their album Imaginary Sonicscape. They're capable of mire, really. This still has WTF genre blends but it's more natural. It is a very thoughtful and beautiful album and I will always be the one to recommend this before Sonicscape to sigh novices. Really, it is fantastically delivered extreme and light hearted prog.

Love the album cover so much.

I think I'll have to close down this thread soon. I'm still planning to check all of those out and it'll be just too much if things continue at this pace.
