My favourite Black Metal albums of all time
HellfireHellfire by 1349
Buy new: £6.26 / Used from: £5.54
This is probably my favourite Black Metal album. Frost's drumming (of Satyricon) is just immense!
Diabolis InterimDiabolis Interim by Dark Funeral
Buy new: £8.99 / Used from: £12.03
Amazon spelt it wrong (should be Intirium fool!!) This album is just a masterpiece and the way things are going for Dark Funeral, will probably be their last.
Damned in BlackDamned in Black by Immortal
Buy new: £9.99 / Used from: £6.74
My favourite Immortal album. The ending track 'Damned In Black' is music to the ears!
Goatcraft TormentGoatcraft Torment by Urgehal
Buy new: £8.86 / Used from: £7.75
"This is Satanic Black Metal" is how the first track begins. Yes, yes it is. Don't be put off though. My friend who listens to System Of A Down bought this album and loves it!
By the Blessing of SatanBy the Blessing of Satan by Behexen
Buy new: £12.49
Behexen are unfortunately quite unknown it seems, but this album is very very powerful.
Kill for SatanKill for Satan by Tsjuder
Sister to Urgehal, another Satanic Black Metal band. Again, very very killer music. Especially the track "Kill For Satan" of course!
Plague AngelPlague Angel by Marduk
Buy new: £9.59 / Used from: £11.69
Still my favourite Marduk album. Rom 5:12 should go along side this but not yet as I'm still getting into it!
Spiritual Black DimensionsSpiritual Black Dimensions by Dimmu Borgir
Buy new: £8.84 / Used from: £6.02
The last Dimmu album before their sound changed to what it is today. Don't get me wrong, their new sound kicks ass too, but this is a classic in my view.
TheogoniaTheogonia by Rotting Christ
Buy new: £12.99 / Used from: £10.83
Not really Black Metal anymore, but Sakis' evil voice is still there. I have their poster on my wall!
Artefacts of MadnessArtefacts of Madness by Abgott
Buy new: £10.99
It's Artifact fool! Abgott is a Black Metal band from London (where I am from!) This album mixes elements of horror with metal in a new way. Search Youtube for Abgott and thou shalt see.
EschatonEschaton by Anaal Nathrakh
Buy new: £7.12 / Used from: £6.29
Anaal Nathrakh are also British and their style is more suicidal than Satanic. One of my top favourite artists.
SeanceSeance by Dark Fortress
Buy new: £9.33 / Used from: £5.98
Dark Fortress have made a masterpiece of an album here and there is no doubt about it. More melodic Black Metal though but still very evil.
Sworn to the DarkSworn to the Dark by Watain
Buy new: £10.07 / Used from: £9.02
Watain have emerged from the UGBM scene pretty much in a flash! A must have for all Black Metal listeners.
Sardonic WrathSardonic Wrath by Darkthrone
Buy new: £9.83 / Used from: £23.32
A cross between old and new Darkthrone. My favourite Darkthrone album with some very listenable riffs amongst uncompromisingly unlistenable vocals.
Now DiabolicalNow Diabolical by Satyricon
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.97
Satyricon's style has changed so much in the last decade to something that cannot be individually describled as BM. Still, great tracks all round!
Carnage in Worlds BeyondCarnage in Worlds Beyond by Enthroned
Buy new: £6.19 / Used from: £4.99
Arguably Enthroned's best album along with Towards The... Great atmosphere.
