A Black Metal Night: Celestial Bloodshed
I just came to the Sargeist and Baptism gig last Saturday, with support from Celestial Bloodshed (Norway) and Aosoth (France). Very good Black Metal night !!
I was very happy to be able to see Aosoth for the first time.I failed to see them the previous time for the last Black Metal is Rising fest, because they were playing way too early, and I came after the end of their set.
Also very impressed by Celestial Bloodshed, which I never saw before. They have a very strong impact on stage. The singer is kind of scary ;)
I bought their album Cursed, Scarred And Forever Possessed after that (it's not a new band), and I like it. It's really Black, but it's not at all generic Black Metal like some said.

Black, violent and depressing
This is Shining. Their last album Halmstad begins with a song called Ytterligare ett steg närmare total jävla utfrysning (Yet Another Step Towards Complete Fucking Desolation) !! And here are the first words, a little poem before the screaming:
As I was going up the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there,
He wasn't there again today,
I wish, I wish he'd go away.
This is the beginning of Antigonish, a 1899 poem by William Hughes Mearns. That, with the arrangement of the Beethoven Moonlight sonata, is only an example on how well they are able to mix classical influences with raw black metal.
