bonesbreakerone Really looking forward to the new Finsterforst album and will definitely listen to it tomorrow when it releases. They're one of my go to bands for Folk/Viking metal and have never dissapointed before (let's pretend #YØLØ was just a bad dream...) and from a quick listen to some of the already available tracks this will be another great entry. Favorite track: Leere.

bmurator German Folk / Viking Metal. From a town I actually know for a change... :) After their Jenseits album, these guys can do no wrong! I am really looking forward to this. The closest project to this is probably Moonsorrow but even this... :) They are really in a class of their own! Highly recommended!!!

Edit: I simply love this! The blend of Folk / Viking & BM is stunning! It is very nice to hear a new interpretation of the Pink Floyd classic! No faves at all! Highly recommended once again!!!

about

For more than two decades, Finsterforst have been shaping their own distinctive voice within extreme metal, continuously evolving both musically and lyrically without ever losing their core identity. Their sound merges elements from a wide spectrum of heavy music — from black and folk-inspired roots to epic, atmospheric and post-metal influences — forming a style they refer to as “Black Forest Metal”: a blend that feels both deeply rooted and entirely its own.

Rather than fitting into a single label, their music thrives on contrast and fusion: crushing heaviness meets vast, cinematic atmospheres; raw aggression unfolds into melancholic, emotional depth; and monumental arrangements carry a sense of both intimacy and scale. While often described in broader terms as epic, atmospheric or post-influenced extreme metal, Finsterforst deliberately transcend genre boundaries.

The result is a sound that is brutally powerful yet richly layered, where sadness, rage, triumph and grandeur coexist within expansive compositions. Driven by constant progression and a refusal to stand still, Finsterforst continue to refine a vision that is as immersive as it is unmistakable.

Blackbraid II
by Blackbraid

supported by 40 fans who also own “Still”

This speaks to me on such a deep level. Everything is raw, yet so pure. There are no frills, no added anything. If my soul was translated into music, this is exactly what I hope it would sound like... if that makes any sense. No doubt this comes from the heart, and so much more. LaurieR77

Blackbraid III

supported by 39 fans who also own “Still”

I wasn't sure when I first stumbled on this title in a Best BM releases list. I gave it a listen, and now I am a huge fan. It may not break new ground musically, but it can compete with the Black Metal greats. It's something that will have you returning again and again. The Anti Life

This is so raw, honest and powerful. It's everything I look for when I listen to music. So glad I saw Blackbraid at Hellfest (by chance, as I was walking by). Been listening ever since. LaurieR77

After a more direct approach with Origins, Andy is back with the spiritual successor to Guardians. The production is the best it has ever been, plucking you from your seat and whisking you away to the Scottish highlands. gebs
