Same here, I still listen to the last one regularly

Blackbraid is one of my most anticipated releases, going on his last 2 records I'm expecting another great album.

Gonna check this new heavy metal project from Christofer Johnsson. Let's see if it's fun :)

Oh yes I quite liked the new Drudkh

I hope Blackbraid III smashes all the other black metal this year like the last two did for me

It's not been one of the best years for atmoblack imo, Saor is probably my pick in the category so far. Drudkh's release isn't too bad either. Not listened to Esox but the other 3 Vellichor mentioned are pretty good.

@Melkor Deafheaven like Boxcar said, and The Great Old Ones, Vermilia, Labyrinthus Stellarum, and Esox are all very good as well.
