OH YEAH BABY
BLUT AUS NORD - 777 TRIOLOGY

The sexiest wax in my collection at the moment.

Jaw dropped

Just splashed out on these juicy vinyl nuggets:

Hypnosia - Extreme Hatred (Reissue / Petrichor)
Satan - Earth Infernal (Yellow / Metal Blade)
Cattle Decapitation - The Harvest Floor (Reissue / Metal Blade)
Hellripper - Coagulating Darkness (Reissue / Diabolic Might)

Wiegedood - There's Always Blood At The End Of The Road (vinyl)
Gravpel - Power to the Filthy Masses (cassette)

Love both of these albums for the same reason, fast raw punky black metal but modern.

Then on the other end of the scale, some nice dungeon synth cross atmospheric BM

Strixskog - Land of Cursed Spells (cassette)
Strixskog - Strixskog (cassette)

Then I got an album that probably needs no explanation

Drudkh - They Often See Dreams About the Spring (vinyl)

Chain of Strength - The One Thing That Still Holds True (vinyl)

Good old-school posi hardcore.

Cro-Mags - Near Death Experience (vinyl)

God this album is shit, not sure why I got this one.

Devil Master - Satan Spits on Children of Light (Black vinyl)
Devil Master - Ecstasies of Never Ending Night (Violet vinyl)
Bewitcher - Under the Witching Cross (Blue & Orange vinyl)
Ghost - Opus Eponymous (Turquoise vinyl reissue)

Grim Reaper - Grimm Chronicles, a boxed set containing their first three albums

I thought I would never get these three into my collection, but luckily miracles seem to happen sometimes. I don't know if it's some label politics, but these albums have been legendary hard to find around here for years or decades now.

Supuration - The Cube
Cryptic Tales - Valley Of The Dolls

Really glad to be able to expand my prog / avantgarde collection with these two great classics, got them for pretty cheap as well

Vendetta - Search in the Darkness

This was one of the first ever Finnish speed metal ep's out there, my copy is a re-release from the early 2000's. Not a terribly good ep, it's more like a cheap demo but it has some historical value. Had they continued playing this type of music they could've been something like the classic German bands from the late 80's. This little historical curiosity is dirt cheap around here these days, no wonder since few people even know this thing exists.

Nåstrond - Toteslaut: Swedish black at it's best. Originally released in 1995. I've got the 2005 reissue on vinyl by Cryptia Productions.

Glemsel - Forfader LP milky-clear: what a masterpiece! Wanted to order it earlier and finally did in August, but only arrived a few days ago.

Heathen Deity - True English Black Metal LP: speaks for itself. With a member of Thy Dying Light and that's how I learned to know about this band.

Since my last post there's been quite a lot...

Possessed - Revelations of Oblivion (black vinyl)
Danzig - Danzig III How the Gods Kill (Original pressing)
Sacramentum - Far Away from the Sun (reissue)
Eternal Champion - Ravening Iron (black vinyl)
Panzerfaust - Suns Chapter 3 (black vinyl)
The Cure - Pornography (First press)
The Cure - Seventeen Seconds (80's pressing)
The Cult - Electric (First press)
Black Sabbath - Vol.4 (80's pressing)

Fornicatus - Omnium Animalis Terminus (CD)

One of those dsbm bands that was around in the dsbm hay day but went a bit under the radar, done splits with bands like Psychonaut 4, Nocturnal Depression, Happydays etc

Falls of Rauroes - Vigilance Perennial (vinyl)
There second best album.

Wolves in the Throne Room - Two Hunters (vinyl) gold

Another second best album.

Ash Borer - Cold of Ages (vinyl)

Love this album, so stoked to see all three of these vinyls in my local record store.

Beyond the Light - Nocturnal Depression Wedard split

Kind of funny how on the album cover wedard gives an update on upcoming material and links to his myspace, like a Facebook message on his album cover.

Woods of Desolation - The Falling Tide (vinyl)

Obviously this hasn't come out yet or been shipped but I like what I hear so far from the singles.

Ofdrykkja - After the Storm (vinyl)

These guys are even better at neofolk than dsbm.

Ghost - Meliora Deluxe edition (Reissue on transparent yellow vinyl)

Hard to beat the magestic atmosphere of early lustre

Velvet Cacoon - P aa opal Poere Pr. 33 (vinyl)

Krallice - Diotima (vinyl)

Paysage D'hiver - Das Tor (vinyl)

$150 off the shelf and worth it looking at discogs

Had to pick up these two little masterpieces after the reissue was available. Along with Taur Nu Fuin they make the perfect dungeon synth trilogy.

One of the best of 2022, so a nice addition.

Inferno - Paradeigma (vinyl)
Played this a ton these last two years, about time I got a copy.

Dødheimsgard - Black Medium Current (vinyl)
Don't think an album has impressed me this much in a looong time. AOTY material requires acquiring a copy.

Vladimir Pavelka - Spomienky (vinyl)
Cult of Fire playing happy nostalgic post-rock is a must have.

Black Magick SS - Kaleidoscope Dreams (vinyl)
Black Magick SS - Spectral Ecstasy (vinyl)
Black Magick SS - Rainbow Nights (vinyl)
About time I was able to grab a copy for these. Hope I can get Burning Bridges without waiting years.

Havukruunu - Rautaa ja tulta (vinyl)
A little pricey as it isn't that available but I love
Havukruunus early more raw pagan black metal.

Austere - Corrosion of Hearts(vinyl)
So good I had to grab it, such a good come back is rear these days. Also been awhile since I have heard a good dsbm album.

Burzum - Hvis lyset tar oss(vinyl)
Masterpiece, where it all began

Aquilus- Griseus (vinyl)

Mammon XV's debut EP 'Woes and Winter's Breath' arrived yesterday. It's black metal bliss.

Wall of Voodoo - Seven Days in Sammystown (First UK)

Basmu - Infernal Circles Of The Sabbat (vinyl)

I have a soft spot for raw misanthropic bm like ildjarn.


Nocturnal Depression - Four Seasons to a Depression (vinyl)

Though I like to think of myself as not being in a better headspace these days I had to get this album on vinyl as it one of my favorite dsbm eps

Master of Puppets - I mean if you don't know what Master if Puppets is, then... idk what to say
