Wraiths - Oriflamme + Plaguebearer
Here are the first two albums released by Wraith's. An excellent band out of Edinburgh, UK. Haunting drone noise done right, and exceptionally done I might add. They also have a new album out titled The Grey Emperor, I strongly suggest you buy it, if you enjoy what you hear. As for where to start, it dosen't really matter, as both albums are fucking great.
Oriflamme
Plaguebearer
Tentacles For Teeth - Demo
48 minute demo released by black noizer's Tentacles For Teeth. Music to listen to at night in bed with the lights off, then the next morning getting up to wash the brown stains off. download
Snow Lark On The Temple Mt. Doom - Guardian Or Avenger
A remarkable experience, a beautiful gem, flawless through out and worthy of creating mass amounts of erections. Subhumans don't even understand. download
Burial Hex - Thin Hand of Ourla
A short one from Wisconsin's Burial Hex. Although asumming most have heard Initiations, this one is leaning towards a more power electronic influenced album, yet still containing their dark and frightening feel.

Raw Nerve - Demo + Teens in Heat EP
Great hardcore/punk, extremely lo-fi, and very noisy. I have really enjoyed what the band has put out so far, and I am greatly looking forward for their self titled full-length coming out febuary/march of next year on Youth Attack. Here is their demo and their latest ep, copys were very limited, so if you missed out, here you go.

Circle of Ouroborus - Islands
Though already having a few releases this year, Islands is another solid release. Fans of the band already know what to expect. Many people sight flaws in vocals, but personally I think they are excellent. They almost give you a hypnotice feel, layered amongst great atmosphere. Overall this is a great release, and newcomers I suggest Shores, or the split with Urfaust, to get you started.

Portal - Swarth
The lastest offering from australian dether's Portal is no less than a vicious stomp to the face. Pulverising guitars, intense atmosphere, and haunting sound. One of my favorite's to be released this year.

United Mutation - Fugitive Family
Old DC hardcore at its craziest, United Mutation is basically your 80's hardcore accompanied by vocalist Mike Brown's insane yelps. This is their best release in my opinion, not saying Rainbow Person is bad at all, I just find this one much greater. download
Ash Pool - Genital Tomb
I'm sure alot have heard this already, but upon recently popping this in, I forgot how fucking great this release is. Album slayed then, album slays now. Their best they have put out. Ash Pool more like Ash Rule.

Nuit Noire - Once Upon A Night
A demo by french black metallers Nuit Noire. This is my favorite release of theirs. Keep an eye out for their demo compilation that has recently come out this year, which is all of the bands demo's on two discs. Fuck yeah.

Leech - Ten Black Hymns
Leech's Ten Black Hymn's is greatly different from any of the other bands material. The production is very clean, at times sounds like a total different band, but the album itself is outstanding. Aside from their contribution on the Thou split, this is probably their finest effort. To avoid confusion this is not a full-length.

Vordr - Demo 08
Vordr's 2008 demo is exactly what you would expect from them, it is fucking excellent. I have probably said this countless times before, but the band does not have any bad material, so just incase you have not heard this, I sugest you get on it. This demo for me, ranks up with I, in my fav's. If thats not enough then just look at the cover. Enough said.

Mania - The Death of Birth
Full length release by Oregon's very own Mania. Containing members of Leech, Ancestortooth, and Vault Dweller. The album itself is excellent, very raw, but also a great deal of atmosphere and ambient sections. The Death of Birth is a dimentional listen in its forty minutes of entirety. Some could argue about the lack of length, but I can pretty much say it's perfect. Its just a great listen overall and the guitars, bass and drums are all exceptionally done.

Kriegshög - Hardcore Hell
Your guide to dirty filthy hardcore, 5 tracks of fast, angry hardcore heil. The kind to make you punch fist any inferiority that gets in your way. Get your krieg on here

Hex Noir - Demo's
More raw black, but this time from now defunct band Hex Noir. Real great band out of Dayton, Ohio, who only had a short time to present us with two demo's. Would of really enjoyed further material. Songs from both demo's are also downloadable via last.fm or here
Cult Ritual - Cult Ritual
Sermon of Foulness - The Jericho Drifter
Obscure, wierd, raw d-beat from somewhere in the states. The vocals are great, they do seem out of place some of the time, but excellent nonetheless. Always after I have finished listening I can still hear the high pitched howls distantly in my head. A great 09 release!

Stabat Mater - Stabat Mater
Raw, Lo-fi, Crushing, Full-length, What else could you ask for? It does not get any more solid than Stabat Mater's latest self titled. Alittle short, but that but does defeat the fact that this will rip you a new asshole.
cum get sum
Verivala - Voittomme
Finnish black metal formed by Atvar who you may know from Vordr. Look out for their latest Kalliolle, Kukkulalle, until then.

Leech / Thou - We Pass Like Night, From Land To Land
A great collaboration between two great bands, Thou bring the grush with two great tracks of sludge doom, but pales to compare to blackened folkers Leech, as their untitled track almost mesmerizes the listener with their raw black metalling doom. prepare yourself, this is a good one.

Blood - Impulse to Destroy
Filthy german grind with strong influences of death, almost too filthy to handle. If your looking for an impulse to destroy, you have come to the right place. Such dirty vocals and pounding fast rythms are sure enough to want you to start impulsively destroying some minorites.

Münn - Selbstmordwald Rehearsal
Quite possibly the painfulest, agonizing sludge doom you will ever hear. Woodsmoke's very own Münn basically pack your shit with strong elements of drone, sludge, and doom. As of now it has come to my attention that Woodsmoke is now on an indefinite hiatus, so if you have not got a copy of this, then you are fucked. Also I would like to commemorate bassist/vocalist of the band Joris, who recently has passed.

Thee Kvlt Ov (((Øurøbørøs - Blvd
Where have I even been to not have heard the brilliance of this band. Words can't describe the sheer grush blvd packs you. I never thought getting your shit packed was as easy as 8 strings, but I have been proved wrong. Its time to step aside Om, thee cult is here to stay. The bands music can be put as blackened doom, droney sludge, thrashy blackness. Really looking forward to more material.
4 strings is almost too many. download

Aldebaran - Dwellars in Twilight
I am well aware that alot of people are in need of a crushing once in awhile. Dwellers in Twilight should be your guide, but why? Its because Aldebaran have a nice serving of three tracks of the filthiest sludge doom any fans of getting grushd will dig. Still not convinced, its a must have for fans of Corrupted, Whitehorse, and probably some Asunder.

Black Boned Angel
Why are you even chilling to anything else, Black Boned Angel proves to be one of the greats in the drone genre. Two of their best releases are also two of their best songs.
Verdun
Bliss and Void Inseparable
Ancestortooth - Elephant Boneyard
A cassette best of/compilation of Woodsmoke's Ancestortooth. Those familiar with the label should already know how accessible this lo-fi drony doom sludge is

Teratism - Pure Unadulterated Hate
So you are in search of black metal that does not suck. You decide to download Teratism's Pure Unadultered Hate, you have made a great decision because you will soon realize Pure Unadultered Hate does not include any gay melodys. Its time to get real.

Akitsa
Great raw black metal from Quebec Canada, that now only consists of one member. If you like your black metal straight forward and good then you have come to the right place. Here are three of their full lengths.
Goétie [2001]
Sang Nordique [2002]
La Grande Infamie [2006]

Volahn - Dimensiónes del Trance Kósmico
It dosen't get any more solid than Volahn's Dimensiónes del Trance Kósmico. Just raw black at its finest, and is probably one of my favorite releases, on par with the likes of Vordr. Also incase you did not know, this is the solo workings of guitarist from Ashdautas
