Black Like My Coffee

Here is a list of MY favorite black(ish) metal albums (sometimes I like a little creamer...but no sugar). And yes I am aware that bands like Kreator and Amebix and not "Technically" black metal, but I don't care because they had a huge influence and their sound is very "blackened" on certain albums.

1.Emperor - In The Nightside Eclipse
2.Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain
3.Ulver - Bergtatt - Et Eeventyr I 5 Capitler
4.Burzum - Filosofem
5.Alcest - Les Voyages De L'âme
