    This is right up my alley; it’s going on my collaborative playlist called ‘forks in a blender’ which is just me and my bud making a playlist.

    I really, really like Vvilderness. Huge fan. Also like panopticon, Unreqvited, Witchcraft, Nordic Winter, Skrm (I think?) Elderwind. Psychedelic Witchcraft and Blood Ceremony are up there too.

      Ok, I can work with that. If you are a Panopticon fan you may already be familiar with this, but if not it’s worth a listen: Eneferens. A little more toward the VVilderness vibe, but essentially purely folk, check out Ekstasis. And to go with the psych vibe, if you haven’t heard Hexvessel - Dawnbearer then give that a spin and thank me later.

        God, how have I not heard any of these metal bands in this thread? I listen to metal every day, most of the day. Such a huge genre.

        I’m going add these to the list.

        Holy shit I’m in love with Eneferens and I listened to about 40 seconds. Thanks. Checking out the others .

        They do a Kettering cover? Fucking wow

          If you care to, let me know what you think of these. I think I’m on the right track, but I’d be curious to hear how these strike you.

            Eneferens is top notch. That’s going to be a deep rabbit hole with associated bands, once I have time to sit down and explore.

            I liked hexvessel and Ekstasis (in that order). Again, need to check out more before I really pass judgement, but they have a lot going on that I like
