The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean - 2024

[blackmetaltv]

Analyzing this complex avant-garde album certainly isn't an easy task. It's a carefully organized piece of art, fusing elements of post-black metal, electronic, psychedelic rock, industrial, and even classical and new-age music. It's hard to characterize this album with a single genre tag - which makes it all the more interesting to study and listen to..

Thy Catafalque

One of my favorite releases this year, a stunning mix of metal, folk, classical, electronica, and whatever else Tamás Kátai felt like, as usual. From bludgeoning death metal to ominous horns to spacey synths to atmospheric, emotionally gripping black metal, this album has it all. If a breadth of style and superbly-blended disparate elements are your thing, this album is worth spinning.

The album can be purchased from Bandcamp and Season of Mist.

Krallice - Years Past Matter

An incredibly album from Black Metal Legends Krallice. This thing is dense as hell. If you want to listen to what might be one of the most complex, technical, and progressive black metal records out there this is the record for you. The drumming on this thing feels particularly powerful. This constant rumbling beneath the insane riffs that pushes the whole thing forward. I know that a lot of "TRU KVLT" losers hate any black metal that doesn't sound like it was recorded in a Norwegian Nazi's basement, but this shit fucks so incredibly hard. From the mastering to all elements of composition and technical performance. A classic for a reason.
