sashavonkarl74 Finnish folk metal, not too extreme, quite melodic and varied both in tempos and song structure. This is a well-crafted blend and the album is a rich experience, if you're open to this type of metal with folk elements, which could be called "extreme" only by the use of harsh vocals, but this is almost outweighed by very mellow passages as well (e.g. "Tuonen lehto" feels like a ballad) and some classic guitar (but no clean vocals, which is good!). Time for a new album, please ! Favorite track: Tuulen sanat (The Spell of Wind).

Samarium6 Horns Up! 🤘 Favorite track: Turma (Ruin).

lust4metal very good folk metal Favorite track: Tuulen sanat (The Spell of Wind).

yelworK some of the best black metal from the fruitful quebec scene. don't be a fool: check it out.

Panangelium The frozen essence of the dead of winter captured in sound, a masterpiece of all snowstorms and frosts, powerfully remastered for the ages. Favorite track: Ancienne voix.

allan_brown An icy winter landscape of dark and passionate Ambient Black Metal and one of the most underrated black metal records. Favorite track: Les corbeaux.

Eekhoorntjesbrood TESA keep getting better. Crushing and deliberate. Moving inexorably forward, leaving nothing intact in its path. Every sound is a fleck of ground concrete in a storm of debris.

Blarg Their records are always an experience more than just a listen. It's incredible. This is some of their most dynamic stuff to date, and Interval 4 might be their best song ever. And that's saying something. Will be up there in my top records of the year, no question. Favorite track: INTERVAL 4.

Svmerki Amazing record and totally recommend to see TESA live!!! 🔥 Favorite track: INTERVAL 1.
