Not that you have to keep taking on my suggestions, but I'll just throw out another that I would seriously be interested in your opinion on. Arcturus' La Masquerade Infernale. It kind of reminds me of metallized seventies prog, complete with ridiculous, pretentious singing that I find laughable, but if you can take that whole "Hey nonny" goofiness then it might be right up your alley. |
Yeah, I know. Gotta take your fun where you can get it, right? ;)
I'll add that Arcturus one to the list. Hey, only three days into my post and with four months still to go this could end up being one long list! Keep 'em comin'! :thumb: |

I also highly recommend what Loathsome Pete recommended. Sigh is my favourite band and Imaginary Sonicscape is one of my favourite albums by them along with In Somniphobia, Hail Horror Hail, and Scenes From Hell. But Imaginary Sonicscape is still probably the best place to start with them. There's something almost anyone could appreciate in some of their more Avant-garde leaning work.
Now for a new recommendation. Check out Mondstille's album Seelenwund. It's become one of my favourite Black Metal albums, and I think it would be quite accessible for someone who doesn't listen to Black Metal often. Here's the link to the album, though one of the songs is cut short, so you may have to find another video for that song if you choose to accept to review the album.

There's no album I won't accept for Metal Month II.
No, I mean it. Yes, even Slipknot. Slipknot, yes. Mind you, I take no responsibility for trashing your favourite album if I hate it, though those who know me will surely agree I do my best to write as unbiased a review as possible in all cases. Except for 19ADD's "Dead river". That was just human garbage. ;) |

Geist ist Teufel by Urfaust You trashing this album would absolutely be worth it. It's probably my favorite album to recommend people just for their reactions. Everyone's is different. Looking forward to yours, TH |
Also try Gallowbraid's EP called Ashen Eidolon. For some reason the most popular upload of the full album seems to have some issues, so I'd recommend listening to the uploaded versions of the separate songs uploaded by Northern Silence Productions, since that's the actual youtube account for the record label which released the album. You may see there's four songs on the original album, but I'd like you to listen to the fifth song called Stone of Remembrance as well which is a bonus song from the 2012 re-issue of the album.

Fair enough. I personally am a huge fan of ICS Vortex's unusual vocal style, he seems to take from middle eastern or Indian arrangements with it, but I know it's one of those love or hate things. Not to mention that is one of the gayest album covers I've ever seen.
I will leave you with my favorite song off the album. |
