Hidden Gems - 25 Albums You Might Have Missed
Hidden Gems - 25 Albums You Might Have Missed
What follows are 25 very good albums that seem to have flown under the radar of MS users, as not a one has even 50 ratings. Pulled pretty much from tastes, so largely some death, doom, sludge, stoner, and thrash. So check 'em out, you might find a couple worth your while.

1.
...And Oceans
- The Dynamic Gallery Of Thoughts
49 - Intriguing progressive black meets industrial. Heard my first time on BlackMetalRadio and still enjoy a decade later.

2.
(EchO)
- Devoid Of Illusions
12 - Progressive Doom. The Italians drive all over the various territories of Doom Country in this release.
|
|
4.
Abske Fides
- Abske Fides
22 - Brazilian Urban Jungle Doom. Not everything there is futbol, samba, and really painful dangerzone waxes.
|

5.
Altar Of Betelgeuze
- Darkness Sustains The Silence
34 - Extreme Doom meets Stoner meets Sludge for a rawking bad time.
|

6.
Black Breath
- Sentenced To Life
44 - Punk-influenced 80's flavored death metal from the land of Starbucks, heroin, and endless rain.

7.
Eibon
- Entering Darkness
21 - Blackened sludgedoom which oozes forth and drowns the listener in it's foul taint... but just enough mellow moments to allow you the occasional breath while it continues to constrict away, slowly sapping your life force.

9.
Holy Terror
- Terror And Submission
31 - rampaging 80's thrash. What they lacked in finesse they made up for in droves with boundless, raw kinetic energy, enthusiasm, and the fantastic vocals of Keith Deen.

Lard
- The Last Temptation Of Reid
8 - Ministry + former Dead Kennedys front man Jello Biafra = Industrial Metal with a wicked sense of humor.
|
|
12.
Minsk
- The Ritual Fires Of Abandonment
21 - 2015's The Crash & The Draw is great post-metal. This is a slight cut above.

Procession
- To Reap Heavens Apart
33 - Fantastic traditional doom release from the former Chileans. Crushing riffs and soaring vocals.
|
|
17.
Profetus
- Coronation Of The Black Sun
13 - The album opens reminding the listener "the outer body is a stinking cadaver, because it still lives in poison", and goes downhill from there. Glaciers advance faster than the songs on this album. Empty, reverberating drums, painfully slow guitar melodies, somewhat buried vocals, wrapped in a Yanni-paced organ? these guys sure put the "Fun" in "Funeral!"

Saviours
- Accelerated Living
9 - The Californians party hard and riff harder. A real F.G.T? that's Fucking Good Time to you and me.
|
|
20.
Septic Mind
- Начало [The Beginning]
4 - The beginning of the end. Catastrophic doom vile enough to kill all plant life within 10m.
|
|
21.
Sleestak
- The Fall Of Altrusia
21 - A cosmic stoner jam trip over the waterfalls and through the pylons.
|
|
22.
Station Dysthymia
- Overhead, Without Any Fuss, The Stars Were Going Out
20 - Crushing wall of sound extreme doom with tracks longer than the name of the album. And more punishing.
|
|
23.
Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster
- Exegesis
13 - Great post-metal in and of itself, with some of the best vocals in the genre. Actually sung, not that grating screamo horseshit that is all too common.
|
|
25.
Withered
- Folie Circulaire
21 - A death metal band at its core, with a willingness to incorporate other elements - from black to post.
