Well that's because it is their best work.

I haven't gotten around to hearing all of those, but Agalloch and Drudkh regularly make their way to my speakers around winter time. They just seem to evoke the desolate aspects of the season perfectly. Last weekend I brought some blankets out on my back porch and lay there watching the night sky with
Autumn Aurora on my headphones... it was magnificent.
My top 3 black metal bands are Bathory, Dimmu Borgir (omg ther not tr00 black metvl... whatever) and Darkthrone. There are others I play in moderation but those guys are my Unholy Trinity.
