These are my top Symphonic Black Metal Albums, limited to one per band. Some of these bands have multiple amazing albums, but I wanted to include some of the less heard of bands in this. A few of these might not quite be considered Symphonic Black Metal, but it is close enough for me.

1.Emperor - Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk

2.Anorexia Nervosa - New Obscurantis Order

3.Dimmu Borgir - Spiritual Black Dimensions

4.Old Man's Child - Revelation 666 - The Curse Of Damnation

5.Carach Angren - Death Came Through A Phantom Ship

Obviously, a list of my favorite songs, or songs that mean something special to me at least. I don't remember them all of course so I'll be adding more as soon as I'm reminded of them.
I wanted to pull this off on Spotify but I'm missing a whole lot of songs, so I figured this would be a good place to save it.

1.After Forever - Decipher

2.Ahab - The Giant

3.Amesoeurs - Amesoeurs

4.Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors

5.Between The Buried And Me - The Great Misdirect

5.Slayer - Reign In Blood
