    That's what I've thought about most of the black metal releases I've heard recently, so I do understand the feeling.

    NP: Crypt Of Silence - Awareness Ephemera

    You might perhaps dig the new Shaarimoth album. It's a nice mixture between a bit of technical death metal and black metal.

    I like the Crimson Moon album - the riffs aren't breaking new ground, but they're solid parts put together in interesting ways, and I like the use of acoustic instruments a lot. It's got a cool second-wave vibe, with a good mix of melody and attitude IMO.

    Hmm yes, I see. For me, it just doesn't grab my attention in any way.

    Wedrujacy Wiatr - O turniach, jeziorach i nocnych szlakach

    ...Somewhat raw-sounding melodic BM from Poland. This one's been getting a lot of year-end love too. The clean breaks are nice, the overall atmosphere is good, I like the vocal tone. The melodies and chord progressions are too predictable for my taste; I think this would be more engaging if they had strayed a little further from the path. Still, enjoyable, may appeal to fans of early Furia and Drudkh.

    Crimson Moon - Oneironaut

    Agreed on the Wedrujacy Wiatr. Nothing new, but still very enjoyable. And good luck on that Crimson Moon one. Quite disappointing releases in my opinion. It lacks any form originality and there isn't really anything else which makes it still enjoyable for me.

    Light of the Morning Star - Nocta

    This debut album will be released via Iron Bonehead on March the 3rd. On the first listen, it sounds like a very interesting mix between Moonspell, Tribulation and the latest Ketzer album. Quite hypnotic at some points as well. 2017 seems to be starting good.

    I really enjoyed their first two albums, but they lost me on that one, it felt like sound over substance. Are you a fan of theirs?

    I've never listened to their first two albums, so I need to do that asap. And this one took quite the time to grow on me, I wasn't immediately fan of it either.

    Well for me, the thing is that labeling different genres helps finding me new stuff to enjoy. When I read for example suicidal black metal, it is not very likely that I will bother to check it out, unless there are some more specific references (to bands) for example. Plus, like Father already pointed out, it's very helpful sometimes to talk about it. A couple of months ago our current photographer asked me if I knew some good black metal bands. But as you might know, it's a very broad genre with a lot of different bands. So in that case, it is good that people get a bit more specific with terms like, in this case, orthodox or raw.

    Also, on a positive note: I am officially in a relationship with this Hungarian girl since a couple of days :D I might upload a cheesy picture soon.
