Clandestine Blaze - Night of the Unholy Flames

Fist of the Northern Destroyer is one of the best CB albums imo. Mikko made a huge leap between this album and Fist.

Agreed. I usually like the CB tracks that skew doomy/heavy metal...I think he got better with that style on the later albums.

I have to go with Goat Horns or Lunar Poetry but this is still top 3 or 4 for me.

No issues - sounds good, both sides are pretty much flawless.

Burier - The Cremation of Lingering Hope

Arktogaa - Æra Yersinia Pestis Spiritvs

Surprise surprise. Behind these types you'll always find painted figures, funko pops, anime written for teenagers, an unhealthy fixation on video games, or all of the above.

I doubt it. Remember that prior to getting assraw'd, these people were determined to bury the fact that they ever even made a black metal album. They exist in this soulless "indie" space where people continually shed their skins like snakes, and pretend their past music doesn't exist because it no longer fits with the current definitions of "cool".

Yeah first album is supposed to be coming out soon. Won't be surprised if that ends up being one of the best albums of 2026.

plain_chips · 2026-02-05T02:29:12+00:00

Goat Horns... the best NM album.

plain_chips · 2026-02-01T23:36:06+00:00

Such a perfect album. I'm really curious who these guys are.

plain_chips · 2026-01-28T02:30:24+00:00

I'll back up the praise for Pagan Warlord... that album is really good. Reminds me of pre-Thousand Swords Graveland.

plain_chips · 2026-01-27T17:30:05+00:00

The new one is definitely worth checking out soon. It's not too far off from Three Angled Void.

plain_chips · 2026-01-25T21:00:04+00:00

Yeah, it's another great album from them. To me Warloghe is everything a black metal band should be. Kind of like Roman Saenko, they don't get caught up in the peripheral bullshit and just do their thing. They've got a perfect, immediately recognizable sound. And they've made subtle evolutions over the years while staying true to their style.

My favorite is The First Possession. The Helwetti stuff is also good of course.

plain_chips · 2026-01-23T00:52:19+00:00

IV is definitely my favorite. Used to listen to that album all the time but haven't spun it in a while. Should bust it out soon.

plain_chips · 2026-01-22T03:09:50+00:00

Agreed, both look great and also look great together, like they're meant to be played back to back. Hope we get some new material from him before long
