Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.

A Diabolic Thirst
by SPECTRAL WOUND
supported by 8 fans who also own “Throne of Frozen Blood”
Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass). Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended.

From the Other Side of the Mirror
by Glassing
On this pummeling new LP, the Austin group blend up screamo, black metal, and noise rock into heady, urgent music.

Killer, knotty blackened prog from Norway, full of ferocity and complexity, with blistering guitar leads aplenty.
