Within the past decade, black metal has seen bands from all over the world incorporating new sounds to the genre and changing its delivery like never before. As great as the classic bands are, BM bands today seem to be branching out in every possible direction. From the beautiful chaos of the French bands, to the developing psychedelic black metal style, and even the Avantgarde craziness of the Meads or work from Mories... all the experimentation is helping to create a bold new identity for the genre's sound. Black metal today could very well be the one area of metal where we see the most experimentation taking place, and I hope the albums in this list will illustrate this growing trend.

1.Necromantia - Crossing The Fiery Path

2.Ved Buens Ende - Written In Waters

3.Woods Of Belial - Deimos XIII

4.Deathspell Omega - Fas - Ite, Maledicti, In Ignem Aeternum

5.Blut Aus Nord - MoRT

All things modern hardcore. There will be no grind or sludgcore in this list in order to avoid duplicates. You will find some grind here and some sludgecore here. If it is classic hardcore punk you seek, I advise you to try Lit.'s list.

- Since I moved those heavy ones, I'll need some time to rearrange and fill this up with all the hardcore goodness I said no to before.

1.Death Engine - Mud

2.Silent Planet - The Night God Slept

3.Idylls - Prayer For Terrene

4.Plebeian Grandstand - Lowgazers
