Todeskult - Apathy

New album from this German horde. Slow despair filled black metal, similar with other bands playing this style; nothing special but very well executed, the song-writing and vocals are top notch and make this a really enjoyable release!

Blackdeath - Vortex

Latest album from this Russian band, released last year. This is probably one of their best releases; excellent riff-based raw black metal with a unique vibe, there are also some more atmospheric songs, all extremely enjoyable. This release is much much better then the disappointing material on the Leviathan split!

The Horn - Dawning of An Ancient Sun / The Silent Land

First official release from this Australian one-man band. The Horn plays a very unique kind of black metal; the music focuses on Egyptian mythology and he really hit the atmosphere spot-on, totally otherworldly and dark. The album seamlessly shifts from really fast songs to atmospheric and slower ones; also, ambient songs are quite prominent, especially on the second disc, and they do an excellent job of setting the dark mood. Even though I really enjoyed this release I do think it’s quite an acquired taste, since the production will probably put off a lot of people not to mention the overly obvious drum machine (that sounds totally awesome in my opinion). Anyway, give it a shot, a highly recommended release!

Black Candle - Nightfire

First LP from this Luxembourgian horde. It ends up being a blend of more midpaced, riff-based black metal, mixed with some fast atmospheric black metal. It's got some odd fucking beats that shouldn't work, but do and rule.

Kult Ov Azazel - Destorying The Sacred

Odal - On Old Paths

Joy to my ears! Fucking awesome atmospheric black metal; not the overly melodic kind of these days but the good ol’Darkthrone kind. The release compiles pre-debut material; absolutely mandatory!

Nihternnes - The Mouthless Dead

New release from this British one-man band. Really melodic atmospheric black metal, the release is worth having mostly for the second song, a 20 minute epic that features everything you’d want from an atmospheric black metal band. The fist song is also good; I’d write some more but I’m not really up for it, basically this guy has a lot of potential to write good material, I haven’t heard the debut but I’ll definitely check it out.
Recommended!!

Vinland vs. Finland

Excellent four way split between these raw black metal bands. Bone Awl and Vordr need no introduction; Hammer and Volkurah play some competent raw black metal, good stuff but no match for the pure awesomeness of Bone Awl and Vordr. Essential!!

Leichengott - Cyrograf

Debut album from this Polish horde. Well played riff-based black metal, the music flows between relentless passages to slightly slower, more atmospheric, sections. The production is excellent and the bass, not only can be heard, but actually adds more depth to album. Excellent release, right up there with the best from the Polish scene!

Bellum / Rhune - Vinland Rising

Excellent split between these two underground us bands. Bellum plays some real good raw black metal, mostly mid-paced with some slow passages; Rhune performs great old-Graveland worshipping black metal. Both bands deliver good material, especially Rhune, so check ‘em out!

Dusk - Örök Halálban

New album from these Hungarian masters. Atmospheric black metal bliss, long monotonous compositions, usually slow with really good use of keyboards; the music does an excellent job of pulling you in. If you enjoyed their previous outputs you're gonna love this one, recommended!!

Ordo Templi Orientis - Where Eternally Autumn Winds Blow

Excellent atmospheric black metal from this Belarusian one-man band. Slow despair filled songs, monotonous as fuck with a spot-on atmosphere. This is right up there with the best in the genre. Highly recommended!!
Also don’t be put off by the low bitrate, the sound quality is actually good.

Oranssi Pazuzu - Muukalainen Puhuu

Debut release from this new Finnish act. Totally awesome psychedelic black metal, spacey rock compositions mixed with (black) metal all coated in raspy vocals sung in Finnish; I think the cover says it all.
Extremely enjoyable material, definitely one of the more unique black metal releases in recent years!

Gram - May I Never Hear Your Voices Again

“Distress and despair, anger, hate and distrust, tiredness (weariness) and the wish for loneliness are the dark feelings of GRAM, but there is also the will to find the place of eternal ecstasy (bliss)…
Expect an album with nature sounding and emotional black metal art!”

Too lazy for a description, good stuff here!
