i'm familiar with all of the bands you mentioned (and i dig them all except for red sparrowes), ninjavenom, except i've never heard of karl sanders or melechesh. i will check them out. thank ya'! also, i can do the progressive death metal thing. it's honestly hard to grab me with it, but i'll check that gorguts album out. i was into them at one point, so maybe it'll click... and as for draugar, check aquariusrecords.org and search for them. two nice reviews and about five sound clips. fucking amazing!

i've been reading good things about "in the woods". i will definitely check them out, along with setherial, whom i've never heard of. i used to really like therion, but everytime i listen to them nowadays i'm confused as to why i liked them so much. i dunno. i never liked windir.

and i love all arcturus albums, though "sham mirrors" is probably my least favorite.

thanks for the suggestions! keep 'em coming!

and if you have anything from either Vuotare, Drudkh, or Striborg please do let me know! i can't find shit!
