2. Black metal from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Extreme metal has long had a healthy appreciation of orchestral and folk music, but few have taken the final step to both embrace and contrast these genres with a sophisticated take on black metal. Winnipeg's Noire have achieved this in spades. Noire's music demands a full and immersive listen, weaving around a central pillar of majestic metal which draws from Enslaved and Opeth in influence, while the softer moments recall Agalloch's experimentation. Broad-chested chants blend with snarls and fierce guitar lines. After building a reputation around Manitoba, Noire have since expanded their influence across Canada, including Quebec Metal Fest, Calgary Metal Fest, Farmageddon, and Black Mourning Light in Edmonton.
