This is wicked

Black metal. It’s not generally a genre I enjoy, in particular I often find that back of the throat high pitch vocal style incredibly off putting, however every so often I’ll find a band that has some stuff I like - usually towards the instrumental/atmospheric/blackened death metal end of the spectrum. I really like Deafheaven musically but vocally it’s not always pleasant.

I heard a track by a polish band called MGLA the other day as it was so sick, and I was hyped that I’d found a black metal band I actually enjoyed. I mentioned t to my mate who is really into his black metal and he said that they have some dubious connections to the far right/white power movement… so that’s the end of that.

Anyone here know of bands that musically sound like Mgla but aren’t affiliated with nazis? If it helps, I listen to a lot of post rock, so that sort of vibe

Deathspell Omega?

Any digital radio alternatives to Marc Reilly’s 6Music 19.00-21.00 show? Usually have the radio on in the kitchen over dinner and I’m over his show. Too much Richard Dawson* and interchangable indie rock and not enough variety.
Aside from Spotify, iPlayer, etc.

  • I fucking hate that guy’s music, voice and general presence, it sounds like a gimp getting his balls mashed on a table with a toffee hammer.

Wait until Gideon Coe comes on after?

At home this weekend but totally up for something like this if you’re DJing next time I visit as I usually stay in Brixton/Coldharbour/Stockwell.
