Good share amigo

[Ethan Price]

A while ago Youtube gave me some really atmospheric and drone-y black metal that sounded like the world had already ended. The music was really drawn out and the vocals (I think they were female vocals) sounded like very, very distant. The production was really good as well. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find it. I'm not even into (black) metal so I don't even know where to start looking.
Does any of that sound familiar to you? I think there could be an "ash" either in the band name or an album name.

[Thomas Brown]

sounds pretty gay but heh

[Jaxson Harris]

>Showing 1 to 68 of 68 entries

Well, fuck.

>sounds pretty gay

NO U

[Kevin Phillips]

Nope. I can't seem to find anything that jumps out to me. And with this ends my journey into black metal.

[Aaron Roberts]

this shit maybe? youtube.com/watch?v=e6j0mspIW24
also
>I'm not even into metal
go listen to the black sabbath discography right now you won't regret it

[Cameron Parker]

the only "ash" band i recall hearing about is Ash Borer but i have no idea what they sound like..

[Jaxson Edwards]

Drone-y [x]
Atmospheric [x]
Black Metal [ ] (although it's been called blackgaze)
Sounds like the world has ended [x]
Drawn out [x?] not quite sure if i understand what you mean, i'm retarded
Distant vocals [x]

youtube.com/watch?v=LNu9JuURXL8

[Jace Garcia]

Nah, that's not it.

>go listen to the black sabbath discography right now you won't regret it

B-but I don't like the sound of electric guitars, user.

Oh shit, I think that's it!

Thank you so much, user!

[Henry Ward]

>B-but I don't like the sound of electric guitars, user.
you'll learn to love it
>Oh shit, I think that's it!
it was fucking wsws? I mean it's a solid album but it's only arguably metal and definitly not black metal

[Jason Barnes]

>you'll learn to love it

I've been telling me that for 15 years now and so far it hasn't worked.

>I mean it's a solid album but it's only arguably metal and definitly not black metal
>implying I even know what defines black metal

I also listened to it two years ago and that was all I could remember. Although it was enough to be found by you. So thanks! I will now go listen to all of it.

[Liam Hughes]

>implying I even know what defines black metal
that's (newfriend friendly) black metal

notice the tremolo picking and overall cold atmosphere

[Leo Cooper]

>tremolo picking
Okay.

>overall cold atmosphere
You mean it sounds as if it was recorded in a tin can with holes in it? Because that is what I really don't like when it comes to black metal. I know there are lots of people who love exactly that but it just isn't for me. I'm not a fan of music with as much higher frequencies.

[John Rivera]

user you replied to wasn't the one who found it, but you're most welcome ! it's one of my top 5 favourites of all time, it's so good.
and yeah it's not black metal but literally who cares about genres. what matters is if you like it or not

[Noah James]

I think they do matter somewhat if only for communication. But anyway, it worked and now I've rediscovered them. Thank you, user!

[William Young]

>You mean it sounds as if it was recorded in a tin can with holes in it?
well yeah it's lo-fi, but that's only a small part of what makes it sound cold
I understand that you don't like it, the lo-finess put me off for a long time as well
there's black metal with better production out there, but I'm too lazy to rec stuff, another user probably will do it

[Andrew Johnson]

UK Fag?

[Daniel Reyes]

there's alot of different styles of black metal. This album was my entry point to the genre as a whole, probably because it's not very "harsh" and easy to listen to.
youtube.com/watch?v=KBzO5Un8_ao

[Julian Cook]

Tried Blackened Doom?

Mizmor
Primitive Man
Dead Women's Ditch
Ashtar
Morast

[Levi Robinson]

I'm more into that nice mix of sludge and post-metal that was once called "atmospheric sludge".

The few things in my collection I consider as black metal which I like are things like

>Nocte Obducta
>Fjoergyn
>Endstille
>Shining

And that's probably it. Also thing like Alcest and Les Discrets, but I guess those aren't really black metal.

[Evan Barnes]

Coffinworm
Ancst
Young and in the Way

[Matthew Nguyen]

Ashtar my man.

see

[David Hall]

Listen to Nortt if you haven't already.

youtube.com/watch?v=mZgguxDRSmA

[Dylan Morales]

If this was recorded with less guitars I'd like it.

But then again, it would be more akin to martial industrial then.

youtube.com/watch?v=plgg9sSLRvQ

[Mason Campbell]

well they go less and less guitars by each release pretty much

youtube.com/watch?v=BH5bv7f1PS8

[Ethan Adams]

This is too video game / fantasy flic for my taste.

[Adrian Gutierrez]

fair enough, the lyrics are in black speech of mordor

[Blake Smith]

Anyone listening to any black metal tonight?

Last NBBMN I listened too Graveland's entire discography. Immortal Pride will always be my favorite, but Creed of Iron is great as well.

[Andrew Peterson]

[Elijah Nelson]

can i get more like the output from crepusculo negro and volahn specifically... or like this youtube.com/watch?v=utTrqwYGzeg&t=11s

[Michael Morgan]

What are those five cassettes with indistinct grainy black covers that keep getting posted in /metal/? Is it a meme like the Grifter? A few people have asked for them but they never get responses.

[Aiden Williams]

>A Bundle of Sticks
>cigarette
>menial chores

[Brayden Peterson]

apparently they actually exist, someone has linked me to a Metal Archives page before but the names were entirely ungoogleable. figure they're probably some raw black metal demos, nothing special.
