Lemme know if you want specific genres/vibes because I have all kinds of shit I'm into and love giving recs based on what other ppl like!
Also thanks for posting and taking the time to give recs :)
You got anything on deck like agalloch? I really like their vibe. Ragana and panopticon kinda check that box for me a bit as well. Bleak and wintry. I’ve listened to WITTR a bit as well, but somehow never got as into them as I thought I might.
I also love isis and wish they were still making music. In that same vein, the ocean, cult of Luna, and Rosetta mostly scratch the itch.
Maybe check out East Of The Wall (Resentiment specifically) as an Isis/Ocean fan
For Agalloch fan recs, big recommend for Falls of Rauros "The Light That Dwells In Rotten Wood"
Very good atmospheric black metal
Ooh this falls of rauros album is exactly what I was looking for! Will definitely be listening to more of them as well. Thanks again for the recs, you really nailed it!
Also I see they’ve done a split with panopticon, which is a good sign that they’re probably not fuckin nazis. Not that you’d recommend them if they were, but like, I always worry with black metal lol.
Understandable lol, reasonable concern lol but I think they're lefties (anarchists I think, idk but they're cool)
Fwiw, I used to really like Young & In The Way and don't ever give them money, their bassist was a real piece of shit and did some horrific SA shit allegedly and the other guys handled it really poorly
(cool crusty black metal/atmospheric vibes though and a sick logo, really unfortunate they suck, "I Am Not What I Am" was one of my favorite albums of the 2010s)
Checking out ressentiment right now, feels like isis-y meshuggah or something off the bat. Definitely ocean-like. Also maybe some protest the hero vibes? Very much enjoying this so far, thank you!
Edit: yeah, I dug that album all the way through, will definitely have to check out more of their stuff!
You're welcome!
I haven’t heard of either of these! I’m excited to check them out. Thank you :)
Ooh, just thought to rec Pelican, Giant Squid and Russian Circles if you dig The Ocean too
Hell yes to both!
Oh hell yeah. I’m gonna think about this a bit and come back. I’m very excited :)
