Thing about A.I. is the answer is only as good as the data it uses. While there's absolutely nothing wrong with any of those albums, they're mostly the really well known black metal albums as well...the ones you'd primarily start with when getting into black metal. Makes me wonder what criteria it was using to determine "best" and where it was scraping data from.

BRODER - Skarpretterfossilet https://broder-dk.bandcamp.com/album/skarpretterfossilet Personally, I loathe dubs due to the often poor voice acting, and find U.S. remakes to generally be more miss than hit, but I think there's also an argument to be made that some ideas that make sense to one country just don't translate very well, and that some people do find it hard to follow the specifics of a story when they have to read along, even if they can follow the broad strokes of a plot
