It would be worth it to save up for a trip to head west and see them. Sonically they are phenomenal and combined with the visuals projected behind them... fucking epic. They usually tour the west coast annualy.

Ash Borer sounds pretty darn tootin' good. I'll check out the other suggestions later.
Although the USBM scene isn't amazing, save for a few bands, it's still shitloads better than rehashed Norwegian black metal. It's been done before and better, it's time to move on. The post-rock influences usually make for a nice listen. Sometimes it's difficult to find new black metal that is genuinely special and not just a nice listen though. More suggestions are always welcome. What did you think of Weakling's album? I assume most USBM bands were influenced in one way or another by that album. | ||

Glad you dug it man, I could talk music forever. Im glad theres actually some people into BM around here. In a perfect world I would want a Metal/Punk EQ Guild. Finding people who like classic EQ? Hard as fuck aside from all you assholes! And people with good music taste? Hard unless im at a show and its usually all the same faces. Both is quite refreshing.
Agreed on the whole TRVE NORWEGIAN BLACK METAL thing. Don't get me wrong, I understand/respect my roots. But those dudes have such ridiculous egos its insane. Mayhem complex, where you seriously convince yourself you are the greatest band ever, anything less? ...not trve cvlt bro haha Dead as Dreams is gold (or platinum... Nyuck Nyuck Nyuck) They put that album out and played shows to no one, before black metal really was a thing in the states. Trying to find a copy of that vinyl under a grand is impossible. Shit needs to be re-pressed BAD. And for sure, Huge influence on what is now known as the norm for USBM sound. If you listen to Wolves in the thronerooms demo compared to Diadem of twelve stars??.. Shit is hillarious, but makes sense. John Gossard of Weakling produced the album which formed them into the band they are today. Then every USBM band drenched their recordings in maxed out reverb haha. I'm sure you have listened to them but he was also the guitarist of Asunder, killer funeral doom. Now hes playing guitar and doing vocals for Dispirit. Basically doomed out weakling. Also if you dudes haven't checked out the documentary One Man Metal you should Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Follows the masterminds behind USBM greats Xasthur, Leviathan and...... /sigh Tastmanian dude Striborg. This gollum looking motherfucker is pretty much every BM stereotype wrapped into one. Bare through it and the other two make up for his ridiculousness. Drunk rambling, back to Hill giant slaying. | ||
