Hail to everyone!
The time has come to summarize the Finnish Black metal scene for the releases in 2020!
What I`m really happy to announce is that it`s still keeping it`s true canonic way and not going to let it down.
I don’t know how Finland tries to be successful with it as for many years I have lost the interest to the biggest part of other Black metal scenes which I used to love. From those are Swedish, French, Iceland and other ones, except some bands which I still follow and waiting for. Nevertheless, I can`t say the same about Finland which black fire continues to inflame every time despite the weather. For now I decided to create my own symbolic top 13 list of the releases which impressed me most of all.
1. Ymir — Ymir
2. Valravn — Prey
3. Bythos - The Womb Of Zero
4. The True Werwolf - Devil Crisis
5. Aethyrick - Gnosis
6. Curse Upon A Prayer - Infidel
7. Korgonthurus - Kuolleestasyntynyt
8. Blood Red Fog - Fields of Sorrow
9. Förgjord - Laulu Kuolemasta
10. Sammas' Equinox — Tulikehrät
11. Havukruunu - Uinuos Syömein Sota
12. Goats of Doom - Tie on Hänen Omilleen
13. Horna — Kuoleman Kirjo
Finland is one of the most important countries for black metal and metal in general, I love Sargeist, Horna, Satanic Warmaster, Cosmic Church, Azaghal, there are a lot of great bands there, could be the cold weather there?
ReplyDeleteMay be...may be the spirit of Satan is strongest there.
DeleteWhy no Faustian Pact? That should definitly be in the top 5
ReplyDeleteYes, this is a very cool album, but I liked the albums that I indicated more.
