    Check out Aurora Borealis and Unquintessence. They might be what you're looking for. The first is more of a blackened death feel. But like I said in the last thread I'm no expert on BM :P.

    Btw - Naglfar and Immortal sounding similar? :O kekek
    Btw2 - Only LP's should be added, rite? Just wanna clear that up.
    Btw3 - Are we talking here about black metal in it's broad sense? I guess we are, since i can see Solefald, Venom (? O_o) and Enslaved's "Isa" ;e anyway, \m/
    Btw4 - Venom O_o i know it was fundamental to the creation of black metal as a genre, but that band was never BM per se. Should it really be on this list?

    @M-M: Dude, if you wanna BM that's fast and furious, check out Anaal Nathrakh. It's bordering on Grindcore, lol. ;d I especially recommend their latest release, "Eschaton". It owns little teddybears.

    I included Venom pretty much first up, on the bias of their influence on latter bands. So blame me!

    I was choking on a cornflake.

  • Woot! You read my mind, mate. How do we do this demos list thingy?

    And just for the record - CoF is NOT black metal, it's gothic metal. Sheesh. :P And i'm having doubts about Akercocke, they're more death than black, really.

    Anyway:


    Akercocke - The Goat of Mendes (2001)
    Anaal Nathrakh - The Codex Necro (2001)
    Arkona - Imperium (1996)
    December Wolves - Blasterpiece Theatre (2003)

  • ssssh, yeah i know. i went from eminem to red hot chillies to limp bizcuit to akercocke it the space af a week, and i thought it was BM then, and still think it is in a way - what other death stuff has all that spooky evil shit going on?
    as i said, i learned of all those bands from kerrang, a mr dom lawson to be exact, who was singer with the short lived but brilliant 'nu-death' band Matter. he is a great singer, like noone els, really. last i heard the record lable were getting rid of their only cd for 1 pound [last january].

    and f u mate, cradle obviously were a black metal band, and up until midian were really quite good too [bitter suites is good too, but i dont count it]

    I have to agree with madbringer on this, CoF is gothic, heavy/black if you will...and most people who want to classify CoF as BM, I can live with that 'name'. Dani has always distanced his band from the black metal scene, as their intentions were to never make music that even resemblanced to BM - and thats what they did. From The Principle to...whatever album they released recently...it never came even close to BM...

  • Just sayin' - i dont like CoF much myself, but i wont go around and diss their music. I didnt wanna be aggrievin' your style dude, just point out they dont fit on the list. :P

    Oh, and a few other very fast BM bands -

    Reign Of Erebus
    Infernal War
    Kriegsmaschine
    Vesania
    Setherial
    Kult ov Azazel

    with Reign of Erebus and Setherial coming closest (RoE even topping it, imo) to 1349's speed.

    Cheers.

  • From Norway, anno 1994, Bergtatt :



    I've just recommended the newer creations of Ulver at the ambient Electronics desk but they started out as a Black Metal band.
    Bergtatt is thier debut:
    Chanting, clear singing and harsh vocals. Folk music, acustic guitars, flute, droning riffs. The drums are rarely accentuated which creates a flow-together feel.
    A really good black metal album, not a bit monochrome, a real gem.
