what GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ said. Apparently its an ilx tradition to catch up on the year by listening to nominated albums and voting on the ones you like, just like the big eoy poll.
You can even listen to the collaborative spotify playlist that everyone should subscribe to (and add their nominations)https://open.spotify.com/user/pfunkboy/playlist/2fZQglorvuVBQalU6J0L9Kspotify:user:pfunkboy:playlist:2fZQglorvuVBQalU6J0L9K

'Luonnon harmonia ja vihreä liekki' is by Abyssion not byssion ffs. They're like a rawer Oranssi Pazuzu in any case.
I'd recommend Nameless Coyote - Blood Moon because it's gotten pretty much ignored everywhere, though I can hear why, it's way too weird for the normal blackgaze crowd. It ain't Deafheaven that's for sure. Anyone who likes Mamaleek and/or Pyramids should give it a go though.
Genevieve - Escapism is a great example of the dissonant warped post-BaN sort of thing, and Awe - Providentia is in many ways very much an "orthodox" bm record but it's very good for it and doesn't sound like a lesser Deathspell like a lot of these bands tend to. I kept forgetting to bring it up in the rolling metal thread.

MC Dälek told me after the London gig yesterday that Blut Aus Nord had proposed a collaboration a few years ago, but hadn't turned up to their Paris show, or rather had sent a friend instead that might have been him, and was generally just too weird. Pity coz that'd have been amazing
