All the Cold One Year of Cold3.5
All The Cold is an ambient/atmospheric Black Metal band. For a compilation, there are a few good songs here. Recommended songs are Through the Dead World & Last Sun Before Polar Night (see youtube).

A good, atmospheric, space themed, Black Metal band. I suggest checking them out.

This came in the mail today. Been listening to this, but damn this thing is massive (for only 4 songs). Don't mind the cleaner production but not sure how I feel about the album compared to their S/T.

Asking Alexandria Reckless and Relentless4.5
Better performed than their previous album, plus it has a heavier feel which is nice. Vocals are less annoying, but techno/dance beats are less apparent (WTF guys) and of course breakdowns, but what else is new? Honestly these guys are just fun to listen to.

The music is nice but I cannot get into the vocals. It stands out too much from the music, and changes the atmosphere. I'll listen to it some more though and see if I'll think otherwise. EDIT: Nope...

Dopamine Dopamine4.5
Dopamine Dying Away In The Deep Fall5.0
Thought it was time I write a soundoff for this unknown and under appreciated album. Dopamine is a band that mixes Black Metal and Shoegaze better than Heretoir to be honest. The album, unofficially released, is a compilation of their best songs taken from past splits with other similar "blackgaze" bands, with the inclusion of an extra song. It's unfortunate that this band has already broken up but they were the best at what they played. I highly recommend this band to anyone.

I know its a solo album but at least add more instruments other than your bass. Each song is around 3 mins (10 songs) so you can practically stream half of the damn album on iTunes if you haven't decided whether to buy it or not.

Rhinocervs RH-075.0
Rhinocervs releases a superb album. Some songs are more of a doom theme while others stay to the black metal feel. Hell, I see no wrong with this album and there still is another release right around the corner!

Violet Cold Desperate Dreams4.0
An interesting black metal album with post-rock melodies and atmosphere. May get a little repetitive with the constant blast beats, but sometimes he mixes it up and adds some synths that give it a dream pop feel. Everything melds together wonderfully. Just give it a listen if none of what I said makes any sense, cause at this point I'm name-dropping genre's like an idiot...
