Myrkur's not a bad choice actually. It's like Tori Amos's idea of black metal

based on "mausoleum" i'd say it's more lorena mckennit's idea of black metal!

You might enjoy Sep's Chaos AD as well, more of a straight metal album but starting to incorporate the influences foun in Roots.

Yeah, I would also look up Soulfly which is the band Max C started to follow up on Roots.
Not the same thing but Clutch's Transnational Speedway League is an absolute classic. I did not even realize Clutch had 12 albums! I'm prob way overdue to tackle their whole discography.

That was their best album imo but also an anomaly in their discography as it was more post-hardcore than the stoner rock they became famous for

Pick one at random. They're all exactly the same.

I like the *sounds* of Myrkur but a lot of her album sounds half-finished

Yeah I mean I thought the album was a solid B-minus but theoretically Lex wd be looking for different things out of BM than I would

the record i heard was "mausoleum" which is her and a choir in a crypt, no metal at all. i guess it's not typical of her? but it sounds better than when she tries to do the black metal thing.

She should collaborate with Mesarthim on her next album

xps- i kinda figured a good groove metal album is some lightning in a bottle shit, and Roots was a 'one good album in an otherwise meritless genre' situation but i'll check some of these out, thx. enjoying Clutch rn, this music makes me lol but in a good way
