Right? Hooded Menace all the way!

Septicflesh the best death metal of last 10 years I can't believe it...

19:41 - flightoficarus86
Still dubious if you ask me, but no one did.

19:38 - Marcel Hubregtse
Che, one could call Monotheist experimental. So it fits in that category

19:29 - flightoficarus86
They haven't really been black metal since Frost. You could maybe throw Mardraum and Blodhemn in there. Regardless, all good stuff.

19:26 - Apothecary
Yeah, it's a bit strange that that one's considered BM while RIITIIR is considered progressive

19:22 - flightoficarus86
Axioma is a great album too, but it's a stretch to call it black metal.
