| This record was already in my "have to sell this shit" box but after reading this I gave it another spin and yes, it is actually pretty good. |

Nasheim is fucking incredible. The Angantyr split slays. And their cover of Blood Fire Death on the lp is good, too. |

| Donkelheet is another band I highly recommend, but I've only heard the single track released on the split w/ Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult. Has anyone ever heard anything else from this band? |

Wigrid sucks so tremendously. Even for standard B-Grade Depressive BM.

agreed. To Lay Like Old Ashes fucking kills. This Dreadful Emptiness is one of the best DSBM songs out there IMO

I bought that Austere album and it's fucking awful. Not what I was looking for at all. Weakest shit I've heard in awhile, totally limp-wristed. I can sometimes overlook bad vocals, but these are the worst. The screams are those pathetic, hooting/whining type vocals that I hate (Silencer, Sterbend), the clean vocals suck and are more suited for easy-listening, and the songs are completely forgettable. |

| The problem with Austere is that to my ears it is too predictable, almost easy-listeningly so. Everything is done 100% according to the recipe without deviation. However, I can perfectly understand why people love it. |

I'd also recommend Trist and Life is Pain. although both have vocals that are more in the vein of Sterbend, Silencer, etc. type DSBM. Life is Pain is a DSBM "supergroup" to say, featuring Kim Karlsson from Lifelover and Trist from Trist.

this is pretty much just a Strid pastiche. |

Hypothermia's "Köld" (and other material recorded during those times such as the track "Hora") and Abyssic Hate's "Suicidal Emotions" are the most relevant albums from this subgenre in my opinion, and I wouldn't underestimate the value of Nyktalgia either.
Austere's debut is fantastic, love everything about it and it fits perfectly on tape. The second and last album was a disappointment, I couldn't get past the MTV emo vocals and arrangements on certain tracks, sorry. I'm happy the band ended already before venturing even further into that crap, though I guess this Grey Waters will continue the "legacy"... I'll stick to my Katatonia. |
