What do you think of the USBM scene? Bands like Agalloch, Wolves in the Throne Room, Judas Iscariot, Leviathan, Xasthur, etc.? Some great stuff from the west coast going on.

But Deathspell Omega are really what's doing it for me at the moment. Also Drudkh.
Drudkh is probably my favorite BM band,Autumn Aurora is my favorite album in the entire genre,if not all of metal.Negura Bunget is another amazing band.

I dig some of the USBM bands,I guess WITTR or Absu would be my favorite,but Kreig,Cobalt and Leviathan are good as well.

I love Agolloch but don't really think of them as black metal.

Autumn Aurora is astonishing. You're right about Agalloch ... I should have specified their first album ... they've gone kind of progressive now.

Kreig is just brutal! I like Negura Bunget quite a bit as well. Last night I was listening to some Nokturnal Mortum and had forgotten how excellent they were. Don't really like their politics all that much, though. Same with Graveland. I have everything Darken's ever done, but I've not paid for any of it. I won't support the racist jerk. Love his music though!

Antestor is great! Have not heard Crimson Moonlight ... need to check it out. Just replaced my vinyl copy of Dark Medieval Times with a CD. Gettin' a bit modern here!

I may be nuts, but I love that LLN stuff too. Especially Vlad Tepes and Moonblood. (Well, Moonblood's German, but I toss 'em in with the Frenchies because of the sound).

Listening to Summoning right now.

I've seen Antestor and Crimson Moonlight live a few times each.

Crimson Moonlight is amazing. The lead singer is probably around 6'8, 300lb pure muscle, and his name is Pilgrim. The most brutal looking dude you'll ever see.

(I probably exaggerate his actual size, but he's a big dude.)

I'll try to check 'em out if they come through Little Rock. We actually have some pretty amazing local bands: RWAKE; Deadbird; Fallen Empire; Vore.

My ears are still healing from the last time JUCIFER was in town.

IMO, Entombed's Clandestine is one of the 10 greatest death metal albums ever made ... by any band. That's why I was so surprised at how bad the next album (Wolverine Blues) was. And I'm not very impressed by anything else they've done. But Clandestine ... that album just KILLS!

And Amon Amarth is another band whose first album I love but who seemed to get into the more melodic side of death metal as they went along. Once Sent Through the Golden Hall is classic though.
