Yeah I've got Synarchy, I just don't think they've managed to surpass the brilliance of the track Abscission from Paracletus. That's one of my all time favourite songs. I'll have to give the new one a few more listens.
If you like that sort of thing, and haven't checked it out so far, it's worth hearing some latter day Gorguts. By latter day I mean anything from Obscura onwards. Colored Sands is their latest conventional album I believe, and very good it is too.
Will check out The King is Blind.
i forgot to mention bands like Portal, Cult of Fire and Batuskha. Chk them out!
and yes, Deathspell Omega is simply supreme \m/
but not for daily consumption!
Oh yes and I did pick up Carcass "Surgical Steel" on vinyl....I like the classics such as Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, but a few others:
Death - Symbolic (all Death albums really!)
Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
Anathema - The Silent Enigma
Darkthrone - A Blaze in the Northern Sky
Dissection - Storm of the Light's Bane
Nevermore - Dead Heart in a Dead World
Cryptopsy - None So Vile
Carcass - Necroticism (Descanting the Insalubrious)

Necroticism is an absolute classic. It gets played a lot.
I can't fault any of the Death albums, my fave at the moment is Spiritual Healing but that will change (again).
I don't know Dissection though!!
I don't listen to black or death, but I do like Behemoth. These guys are local to me and I went to a couple of their gigs, very impressive. I like their two recent albums, catchy tunes.
Dissection are great if you like that sort of thing. To me they're in the 'pretty good' category, but a lot of people love them.
If you check them out, do go for Storm of the Light's Bane first. IMO, of course, The Somberlain is 'not quite Storm of the Light's Bane yet', and Reinkaos is rubbish. I did say IMO.
Weird to like something as full on as The Satanist, but not to even listen to anything else that's similar. Fair play. Could be worth checking out some related stuff, I'd suggest the aforementioned Dissection, plus possibly some later Emperor and maybe Vader (who are also Polish).
This is exactly why I started this thread guys, I have so much to discover....
I will seek out all the above and educate myself. I do regularly spin the Vaders Tibi and Empire releases...is the back catalogue worth visiting?
Dave***t can you put me out my misery and tell me what band that is on your avatar, I can't work it out from the obscured band logo.
Entombed - Clandestine
It's Anaal Nathrakh.
