Sevengill 12.21.16	Honorable mention: Insomnium - Winter's Gate, Kalmah - 12 Gauge, Coldworld - Melancholie, Paramnesia - Paramnesia, Schrei Aus Stein - Wanderwege
DamnVanne 12.21.16	Explosions in the sky, obviously
ScuroFantasma 12.21.16	Great list
Sevengill 12.21.16	scuro have you checked out some of the lesser-known ones?
ScuroFantasma 12.21.16	From these I've heard 1-4, and parts of 6
Sevengill 12.21.16	aye those are the classics.
ScuroFantasma 12.21.16	Which one of the others should I start with?
guitarded_chuck 12.21.16	m/ winter metal is the best
zaruyache 12.21.16	check all of 6 first
DungeonBoy 12.21.16	Under the Moon, under the trees. Into the Infinity of Darkness, beyond the light of a new day, into the frozen nature chilly, beyond the warmth of the dying Sun. Hear the whispering of the wind, the Shadows calling...
InFlamesWeThrash666 12.21.16	Vinterland
DungeonBoy 12.21.16	listening to 4 for the first time right now.
Sevengill 12.21.16	5, 8, and 9 are inspired by Paysage, 7 is great if you love Nattens Madrigal, and 10 is full of huge riffs and some deathiness. Looks like you 5'd Nattens so start with Eismalsott, then go to Hoth.
zaruyache 12.21.16	also Storm of the Light's Bannnnnnne.
Sevengill 12.21.16	listening to that one again because it's never gotten its teeth into me possbily because I harbor personal reservations about Jon Nodtveidt
Sevengill 12.21.16	yeah the leads in this are gorgeous. many of them sound harmonized, which must have been immensely hard to pull off.
Egarran 12.21.16	Dismal Euphony - Soria Moria Slott. Too much keyboard and lousy production, but there is beautiful frost. https://youtu.be/yIaAWeSWarw
Egarran 12.21.16	Oh and of course Arcturus - Aspera Hiems Symfonia.
DungeonBoy 12.21.16	Arcturus - Aspera Hiems Symfonia [2] Have you checked Dzo-Nga? :)
Sevengill 12.21.16	Nah man but that name sounds like a big-bang theory way of referring to tits
manosg 12.21.16	Great picks. 2 and 3 are among my favorites as well. If I had to choose my favorite winter album it would be Theatre of Tragedy - Velvet Darkness They Fear which is also one of my all-time faves overall.
zaruyache 12.21.16	"reservations about Jon Nodtveidt" he was objectively worse than Varg imo, but varg didn't have the decency to sort-of-mostly repent afterward and then off himself... so I don't feel as bad saying nice things about his music.
DungeonBoy 12.21.16	Just finished the first track of 4, and I'm super impressed. Isn't this a user project? It's like atmospheric black metal meets funeral doom. At first I was worried it was gonna be "too" doomy, but it's very versatile and the dynamics really pull you along. Kinda reminds me of Mare Cognitum at times. The drums sound like they might be programmed.
zaruyache 12.21.16	it's Noctus's and "atmospheric black metal meets funeral doom" is basically what he called it.
Sevengill 12.21.16	yeah 4 is DarkNoctus' album. definitely my favorite user project. edit: dammit zar
DinosaurJones 12.21.16	Explosions in the Sky, obviously [2] The Antlers ...I feel like I'm a little out of place in this thread.
DungeonBoy 12.21.16	Nice, thanks for the rec, added to my list!
Sevengill 12.21.16	Ethereal Shroud has a new album in the works too. Roll the hype train.
ScuroFantasma 12.21.16	"5, 8, and 9 are inspired by Paysage, 7 is great if you love Nattens Madrigal, and 10 is full of huge riffs and some deathiness. Looks like you 5'd Nattens so start with Eismalsott, then go to Hoth." Cool, they all sound very appealing, if 7 is even remotely Nattens-y or Madrigal-y I will be very happy. Cover rules for it too.
L4titudes 12.21.16	Haven't heard 5,7, or 8. Gonna check those out tonight.
