The 2020s have been bleak as fuck, haven’t they? At least we got some great black metal out of it. <\/p>\n
From the Northern cold to the Australian outback, great black metal albums have come from all over the globe this decade. The genre has exploded in Eastern Europe, while black metal’s pegan roots have even infiltrated the lore of indigenous cultures. It’s been an endlessly fascinating era for black metal, so check out these brutal masterworks from the 2020s. <\/p>\n
This band is so fucking great. After the twisted vortex that was 2016\u2019s V\u00e4r\u00e4htelij\u00e4<\/em>, how much deeper into the black hole could Oranssi Pazuzu<\/a><\/strong> go? Instead of topping their previous album\u2019s hypnosis, the band went cinematic with their surrealism and even touched on industrial elements with Mestarin kynsi<\/em>. This record is Oranssi<\/strong>‘s equivalent to what Goblin<\/a><\/strong> achieved with their Susperia<\/em> soundtrack. It\u2019s just a masterpiece.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n
