Death Karma (Czech)

 
One more today.  Incredible kvlt-sounding black metal from the same minds that brought you Cult of Fire.  This is the first album to blow me away so far this year.  Visceral, gripping, ugly, yet stunningly beautiful.  The subtle organs are a nice touch and complement the simple-yet memorable riffs.  Rare to find so much conviction in BM vocals nowadays.  The bass drum is like the hammer of goddamn Thor.  Very dark with a sense of purpose and just a touch of the avant garde.  Check it out in full here.
