New release from Les Acteurs De l'Ombre, fantastic post-atmoblack

Two absolutely different things here:

First, new album from Akasha. Fantastic upbeat style, raw black metal with artwork done by Wrest. This is causing quite some hype everywhere, but I don't remember seeing it here.




Next, second part of the Ex Libris trilogy EPs. I insist, this and the previous chapter must be the only good symphonic releases that came out in maybe... 10 years? The genre is so overdone that I didn't expect anything this good would show up nowadays.
Try to ignore the shitty artwork.

First track from the upcoming leftover tracks Gnaw their tongues album "An Eternity of Pain, an eternity of suffering".

Psychedelic doom from the USA. Their second record and it's quite a bit heavier in terms of sound than their debut from what I remember.

Sorry for reposting this, but I believe Akasha to have enough potential for becoming one of the next bigger things in black metal.

They blend semi-melodic blackness with chaotic dissonance, clean and distorded guitars with audible bass lines, harsh, venoumos vocals with crisp lead themes, bits and pieces of ritual ambient with blackened thrash, galopping riffs with eerie, haunting interludes and short doomy parts with raw, blasting black metal fury and even some sporadic speckles of traditional heavy metal.
The only thing they do not blend, mix or dilute is the filth. The filth is raw but pure and black.

In spite of the many influences and ingrediences, they manage to create a very homogenous atmosphere and the 49 minutes of their debut full-length do sound like a very tight, monolithic and truly unified whole.

Usually, I am not a sucker for dissonant black metal at all, but in this case, the hype is real and rightful.

Tracks that didn't make the upcoming full length album. Hence a new full length album.

Here's some really good French post-black, mixed by Jacob Buczarski from Mare Cognitum.

Immensely sick technical and tightly woven black metal that I would imagine has already been mentioned

Is there any point in listening to new melodeath bands nowadays? WELL, YES.

Dunno if this was posted before or not, but damn that's one of the best death metal I've heard all year. To be released by I, Voidhanger.



Hot damn fun drunk sweaty folk metal

Another year month week, another Mories project and album. Chilled up blackgaze.

Some fun death metal with proper producion:

Great, another thread I'm not gonna be able to keep up with

Tbh no one listens to these recs anyway so I might just keep it down to the very, very best stuff that isn't on MS at the time.

I do

I do

Good then, shame I kinda got bored of music for the time being.

This seems like it'll be great though. Experimental black.




And some slightly dissonant Profound Lore black / death while I'm here, too. Features John Gossard of Weakling, etc.

New BigIBrave single out since a couple of days. Modern, modern doom. It will probably top that magazines list which name I cant remember anymore - as its hip. It doesnt make it bad, on the contrary its great again.

Hellyeah. New track from the upcoming Midnight odyssey album Biolume to be released on I, Voidhanger records.

Advent Sorrow - new album Kali Yuga Crown announced for April, title track sounds promising.

Lovely trance-inducing black metal from the UK on Sentient Ruin. Sadly only 10 minutes long.




Just for the sake of it, another thing from Sentient Ruin. This one is a suffocating industrial affair, with a heavy noise / rhythmic noise component.




Nucleus are back too. One of the best Demilich-alikes.

More crazy blackened psychedelia from Sleepwalker.

Only one track so far though I think

New full length Yhdarl record. Torturous blackened drone doom from belgium.

Kinda glad it's not 5 hours long this time.

Instrumental stoner metal from France. It has a bit of a Stonilla and Universal Hippies vibe. Good atmospheric and punchy sound they got on this album.

Lvcifyre repping the UK's cavernous, nasty death metal scene again.




New thing coming out on Tchornobog's record label. Only 2 songs by the looks of it but this is my kind of psychedelic bm.

Nekrasov bring the quality, hellish black metal / power electronics / noise mashup.

Psychedelic stoner metal with a touch of doom mixed into it. Really enjoyed this one. Vocals are kind of what you expect from the genre but overall they are solid. Guitars sound nice, I only wish the drums would be a bit more prominent in the mix.

Two more Terratvr Posessions delights.

Another Misotheist release coming up, this time a full length.




And some rather nice sounding second wave Polish bm with a heavy folky sense of melody, from Deus Mortem.

Instrumental psychedelic stoner metal from the UK. One of my favourites so far this year. Really nice bass, great guitar tone and drums that are prominent yet not over-ruling in the mix. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this record. Gripping from start to finish.



And another stoner metal record. This one is from Switzerland. Very nice vocals, punchy guitars, powerful sounding drums and pounding bass. Again a blast from start to finish imo.

Suspiral are back. This artwork may be even prettier than the last one. Some kind of cavernous, hypnotic black metal, but something about it sounds different from the usual. Good stuff, nice use of repetition.
