National Socialist Black Metal CDs and Tshirts

ABSURD
Absurd - Asgardsrei	Primordial artistry and youthful emotion guide this unabashedly existential and violent album of Oi/black metal crossover from the early 1990s.
BURZUM
Burzum - Burzum/Aske	Prowling early work from Burzum composer shows development of intricate narrative sequences and a panopoly of voices in riff form, almost like an opera made from a gutterfight.
Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss	The emotional mood of the musical aesthetics distinguishes this album; the artist sets a stage and plays out the story that must echo in his own head, that of the slow decay of a dark character into sadness anger and death.
Burzum - Filosofem	Fast guitar smears a distorted flow of notes into chords and melodies, hypnotizing with sound in the simplest components of a song that builds a mood from the ambiguity of the melodic recombinance that emerges.
Burzum - Det Som Engang Var	Further evolved from the context of its generation this music makes suddenly incarnate a voice of the nihilistic, anarchistic and emotional philosophy of black metal, a spiritual holocaust that leaves only sadness and resentful anger.
DARKTHRONE
Darkthrone - Under a Funeral Moon	Norsk Arisk Black Metal! -- extremely minimal, alternating between light flight in melody and crushingly heavy nihilism. Existential, and terrifying, which is a heavy burden for this Bathory-inspired Nordic metal band.
GRAVELAND
Graveland - Epilogue/In the Glare of Burning Churches	Early demos that are half buzzsaw hardcore and half melodic creeling black metal, forming a synthesis between suffering and beauty that became one of the themes of this classic band.
Graveland - Carpathian Wolves	The first Graveland album intended for release is shorter songs that already display the beginnings of this band's trademark atmospheric style and dwelling on topics we fear like quiet in the night when all our misgivings become animated.
Graveland - Thousand Swords	Medieval battle metal rejects the linear tendencies of modern society and returns to a time of naturalistic passion. Combat and divinity combine in this paean to ages before our current decline.
Graveland - Memory and Destiny	In full plumage, Graveland returns with a sound that is a hybrid of ambient black metal and Vangelis-inspired epic movie soundtracks, making an ongoing tribute to the societies of ancients and their influence on us today.
Graveland - The Celtic Winter	The forces that divide both universe and human being in conflict and emotion are here in force, through hardcore-derived but majestic songs of rising melody in the midst of chaotic harmonizations toward the sweeter side of darkly dissonant.
Graveland - Impaler's Wolves	An EP dedicated to Vlad Tepes the Impaler, who resisted Christianity and the onset of modernity in Slavic lands with vicious determination.
Graveland - Following the Voice of Blood	A vicious twist toward the ambient and folky side of the equation makes this noisy album a horror that grows subtly from within past resignation into an inspired mindset.
Graveland - Blood of Heroes	Two epic tracks make this EP the perfect completion to a collection of Graveland. Its obscure nature allows the artist to explore more deeply in atmosphere.
Graveland - Dawn of Iron Blades	Like a movie created in sound, this album descends into the past to find a direction for our future that is not the lifeless ashen grey that accompanies soulless apathy.
INFERNUM
Infernum - Iaur-Nu-Fuin	A melodic playfulness added to the searing drear of early Graveland gives this album a bouncy ready-for-fisticuffs quality in the midst of soaring beauty.
INFESTER
Infester - To The Depths, In Degradation	A hybrid of gurgling guttural death metal and black metal atmosphere, this CD approximates a church -- if that church were dedicated to natural selection, eugenics and a smashing of the horde of conformist, egalitarian, mediocre tools who now hold power in the West.
I SHALT BECOME
I Shalt Become - Wanderings	Spacy, Burzum-inspired wanderings portray a warrior of imagination drifting through a wasteland of shattered illusions.
LORD WIND
Lord Wind - Heralds of Fight	Atmospheric keyboard masterpieces craft a perspective of ancient war and stir the spirit of justice within us.
VELES
Veles - Night on the Bare Mountain	Atmospheric folk/black metal hybrid with lengthy operatic pauses and sudden dynamic shifts. Unlike most NSBM, this seems frightening.
