The Gorgoroth stuff has an impressively spooky scream early doors.

I was listening to Immortal this afternoon whilst gardening. Not via earphones but with a stereo connected to an extension lead. Hope the neighbours enjoyed At the Heart of Winter.

It's a great album to play outdoors. :rockon:

I'll just say that the new Enslaved album is tremendous.

Listened to it through six times already. Each listen is like a journey through an ethereal soundscape.

There are no songs as such in the typical sense - verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solos, verse, chorus - and often tracks that begin with catchy riffs (there are a lot by the way) never end with them as each track seemingly evolves as it goes along.

There's beauty here, definite ear worms, swirling rhythms, clean vocals, Kraftwerk style synths, ancient chants, sinister black metal....

It's quite simply very good!
