Rotting Christ - Thy Mighty Contract (1993)

1) The Sign of Evil Existence
2) Transform All Suffering Into Plagues
3) Fgmenth, Thy Gift
4) His Sleeping Majesty
5) Exiled Archangels
6) Dive the Deepest Abyss
7) The Coronation of the Serpent
8) The Fourth Knight of Revelation (Parts 1 and 2)
9) Visions of the Dead Lover
10) Mystical Meeting

Rotting Christ is an essential band of the second wave of black metal. Although not from the same region, Rotting Christ plays a slightly less aggressive style of black metal very similar to that of black metal giants Emperor. Sakis' vocals also come off deeper than traditional black metal vocals. Thy Mighty Contract is the band's first, and among the best, full-length album.

Ulcerate - Of Fracture And Failure (2007)

This came out last year but I definitely feel it's worth bringing up since I never hear anyone bring this band up. ULCERATE's genre description on MA is brutal death metal, but I want to make it clear that this album is quite technical as well. Warped, twisted, and relentless, this album brings something fresh and new to just about any listener's table.

Kragens - Infight (2007)

1) Deaf and Blind
2) Lake of Fire
3) Angels Among Monsters
4) Tyranny of God
5) Ten Treasons We Fight
6) The Falling Man
7) Only The Weak Survive
8) Mask of the Damned
9) Metalize

After listening to Kragens, I can actually say that there's at least one French metal band I enjoy. Kragens of France plays a brand of power/thrash quite similar to that of Nevermore. However, Kragens vocalist Renaud Espeche (who sounds like a cross between Warrel Dane and Roy Khan) also employs the use of harsh vocals. Infight is the band's third full-length release. I really don't have much else to say, but listen, headbang, and enjoy!

Incubus - Beyond the Unknown (1990)

No, this is not the Incubus you are thinking of, you n00blets. This Incubus is an old death/thrash band from Louisiana that was started in 1986 by two brothers, who immigrated from Brazil. I bet you can guess what this implies? Yeah, this sounds like 80's Brazilian death/thrash. It sounds like a mixture of Sepultura, Possessed, early Death, Obituary, and Massacra. It's raw and it's aggressive. Pretty much, it's just a riff-fest. Just listen to "Certain Accuracy," if you're not sold after one minute of listening, then go listen to In Flames or something, pussy. I'm just kidding, but it's a good record. Worth a listen.

Father Befouled - Obscurus Nex Cultus

Onward To Golgotha worship at its' best. Father Befouled bring you their first full length effort filled with blasphemy and evil. Fans of Incantation and Dead Congregation should definitely pick this one up; for me, it's easily in my top 5 this year.

Darkestrah - The Great Silk Road (2008)

1) The Silk Road
2) Inner Voice
3) Cult Tengri
4) Kara-Oy
5) The Last Step

For a few months, I've been finding that I don't like black metal as much as I thought I did (with the exception of folk/black metal). However, a few bands have managed to spark up my interest a little bit, one of these bands being Darkestrah. Darkestrah is one of the very few heavy metal bands from Kyrgyzstan, although they've recently relocated to Germany. The band's latest album, The Great Silk Road, contains epic black metal suites much like their other work. This album is definitely among the year's best releases.

Total playing time 36:04

I'm sure some of you are familiar with the one man band Toxic Holocaust. There's another one of his albums on this blog. Their latest entry is pretty much the same formula but with better production: you can actually hear bass on this. And I also heard that the guy got a drummer for this record. He used to play all instruments. Awesome thrash for all the thrash lovers. Again, it's a bit blackened. You'll know what I mean when you listen.

Steel - Heavy Metal Machine (1998)

Track Listing :

1. Heavy Metal Machine
2. Rock Tonight
3. Say Goodbye (To Love)
4. The Green Manalishi


This is Mikael Åkerfeldt, Anders Nordin and Peter Lindgren (Opeth members at the time) with Dan Swano (Bloodbath) on vocals. Except this record is nothing like Opeth or Bloodbath, this is old school power metal a la Judas Priest. I never thought those musicians could ever pull off this sound. True 80's heavy metal. Hope you enjoy.
