I regret not listening to this stuff sooner. They're a lot more uplifting than most BM I've heard. Anyway, can anyone recommend any progressive(ish) BM with nature/cosmos-inspired lyrics, decent clean vocals, and good bass work? |

I was going to say Drudkh until I saw the clean vox... |

black metal isn't supposed to be uplifting. |

Yeah, I guess that's the only guy in that category... he's Borknagar's latest vocalist, in case you don't know, Etherhunter. |

Well, if you like Borknagar's debut, Ulver - Bergtatt is an album you can't go wrong with. Some of Enslaved's albums also share some things with ante-Vintersorg Borknagar. |

I agree, and I'd really like to add Mystic Forest - Romances I'm not sure about the bass, but that's truly black metal, with accordeon, female vocals, natural beauty and the rest of the shitload. Daniel wrote a review on this site. You might want to go with Klabautamann - Der Ort as well, for the same reasons. www.klabautamann.de |

The last two Enslaved albums are Excellent Progressive Black Metal, with philosophical lyrics. Other than that Borknagar is a pretty unique band, I most say. And Mystic Forest - Romances is an out-standing release. Woods of Ypres, maybe? |

Bathory come to mind, and Falkenbach. |

Thanks for the recommendations. Falkenbach and Enslaved were already in my music listening rotation. I'll give Mystic Forest, Ulver, and all the others a try soon. |
