Iron Monkey - 9-13

[Eoin McLove]

Dødheimsgard- 666 International. I've never listened to this album before. It sounds pretty good so far. Similar to the Thorns album with the use of industrial flourishes.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

I have to put my hand up and say that I only really know A Umbra Omega, which I think is excellent but I guess is many miles away from where they started. Are they worth a trip through starting from the beginning?

[Eoin McLove]

Yep, Kronet Til Konge is cool. Very much a typical sounding Norwegian BM album, but a good one. I have Satanic Art too which I'm less familiar with but sounds decent. Again, way more BM in style than what their later stuff sounds like.

Svartkonst  - Devil's Blood

[open face surgery]

I think the first and last DHG are the only amazing albums. The others get grating with the industrial bollocks for me.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Metallica - Ride The Lightning
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Crimson Glory - Strange & Beautiful
I'm actually only checking out this last one for the first time. Strange, certainly, and very much of its early 90s time, i.e. nothing like Transcendence. But it definitely has a charm about it, and the vocals are obviously astounding. It definitely merits further listens anyway. Kinda reminds me of the better parts of Chinese Democracy here and there.

Finding myself more tolerant of that industrial style.

[Scáthach]

Paysage D'Hiver - Im Wald

Svartidauði - Flesh Cathedral
Wormlust - The Feral Wisdom

Very good. Tis the season for icy madness.

Wholly seasonally appropriate. And call me a miserable git, but I am enjoying the fact that it's proper dark by 6 pm at the moment. A lot of black metal just isn't right for listening during daylight hours. 

Wormlust have a new one in the works, but I think it's only at the writing recording stage, still, it's something to look forward to in lieu of there being no gigs.
