Never heard of Les Discrets but the first five minutes of this is promising. Kind of shoegazey metal, right?

re: nokturnal mortum, apparently they dropped the NSBM shtick completely before that album

I disliked their most recent one, Esoteric Warfare. The one before Ordo ad Chao, Chimera, was kind of "safe." Ordo, however, is endlessly fascinating. I remember reading someone who said listening to it feels like driving through Chernobyl and that seems accurate. (Ironically it is anything but driving music; it's "put on headphones and astrally project" music.)
It's very lo fi, but not in a noisy way. It has a weird smoothness to it, and probably works similar to something like Darkspace in that more attention pays more rewards.
edit: awesome string of albums there, three of my favs of the era

i discovered this album over the last 3 days and have listened to it obsessively, putting it high up my ballot. absolutely incredible music. slowly encircling, then spectacularly crushing. a showstopper.

Whoa, Isolation sounds great so far (based on the last two tracks). I wonder if he played better when he only had 12 frets/octave to deal with. The solo on the last track is awesome.

I voted for these:

I'm surprised especially to see the Kvelertak place so low, since I thought their album this year was crossing over to a wider audience, and their first album is pretty similar, except maybe a bit more metal.
