Remnants of Crumbling Empires
by Halberd
Death/doom with absolutely massive production, venomous vocals and interesting war lyrics that might actually teach you a bit about history (no songs about Stalingrad or Waterloo here!).

The Floating World
by The Senseless
An influence on my own works. Upbeat, lightning-fast, pummeling psychedelic death metal à la Mithras with cheery major-scale melodies and an emotional, frank presentation. A modern masterpiece.

Uatism
by The Outer RIM
Another project I was involved in - avant-garde metal (compiled in exquisite corpse fashion with no coordination between composers) with 14 musicians, dozens of genres and excellent riffs.

The Furnaces of Palingenesia
by Deathspell Omega
supported by 4 fans who also own “Morourae”
I've kept this album in my wishlist for a year waiting for the right time, right place. I think this is it now, for reasons known to me. And it's possibly one of the most important albums of this time (together with Mgła's Age of Excuse). Worse still, one of the most important works of art of this time: not just in metal and not just in music. And OK, my lovely one from them. How tf anybody can call DsO fascists because of this remains inconceivable to me.

aevum
by VUKARI
More bleak, enveloping atmospheric black metal from the masters at the Vendetta label, “aevum” is both harrowing & strangely beautiful.

Véhémence - Par le Sang Versé
by Véhémence
Mixing medieval folk and black metal, the French band take us an epic — and loud — jaunt through medieval times.
