Top 2025

Hails!

2025 year has ended, which means it's time for the traditional results. The Finnish black metal scene has produced a lot of interesting and memorable releases in its spirit. Throughout the year finnish black metal maniacs vented their anger and delighted their devoted fans with their work. There were quite a few successful debuts this year, but the gangs that had already proven themselves earlier did not sit idly by and consistently gave out strong releases. I always want to mention as many of my favorite works as possible, but just like last year, I will highlight the 15 most striking albums in my subjective opinion.
