[Music] Metal

*shrug* Already know my AotY of 2017 anyway, as a new Portal has been confirmed.

Listening to the new Ghost Brigade album. Fairly by-the-numbers goth rock, but the track 'Departures' is perhaps their best ever. Nice clean/growl vocals and solid riffs.

You got me there for a second, I thought they had a new album this year But yeah you're right, not the strongest band but good for a random listen once in a while.

Waiting the release of the new album of Eluveitie, Evocation II <33

Anyone care to recommend some quality atmospheric black metal? I'm a big fan of Burzum, the more atmospheric Drudkh stuff, Walknut and Elderwind, among others. I don't want to try and name everything, I've already heard, so feel free to recommend something, even if you think I've heard it. Feel free to name drop some good pagan/folk black metal too, just nothing cheesy. No NSBM (Burzum is the closest I'll get to that line...).

On another note, I'm loving the new Wardruna.

Just check the youtube channel for atmospheric black metal.

I'm asking for specific recommendations from my fellow mmo -c posters in a conversational context. Yes I can check a YouTube channel with over a thousand uploads for something decent, or I can see if anyone recommends something specific that they enjoyed.

Your response is the music discussion equivalent of "let me google that for you".

Slightly different. But this album is beautiful. One of my favourites in its genre. But I dunno if this is wha you're looking for since there's so much difference in different atmospheric black bands.

Awesome that you named Falls of Rauros. I've personally known those guys since they were teenagers.

I second the motion to post more atmospheric black! I actually am wondering if there are any good examples of avant-garde as well?

As someone mentioned this channel before, it's a great way to find some new bands. There's quite some awesome bands I found out here.

Also worth checking this out, he uploaded it a few days ago, it's very cool!

Pretty much only YouTube channel I follow, and that Homage to Summoning was great. Loved the Caladan Brood cover.

I'm actually listening to Caladan Brood right now

Amazing album. These type of atmospheric black bands I like. Amazing sounding, clear music.

Caladan Brood is one of my favorite atmospheric BM bands. Their Book of the Fallen album is incredible.

I'll have to do some more listening. There's only a tiny handful of black atmospheric bands I like. For me, the majority is not my style so I have to look extra hard
