Melo Black / Dark Metal
Norway

Dismal Euphony is one of my favorite band, but a lot of people don't agree to say i'ts "black"...
The band have splitted after their 4th full lengh album...
All albums are in the same way... but each one have other particularity, sometime more "symphonic", sometime more powerful in the riffs, etc...
The contrast between the black vocals and the femal ones is well managed...
Here you have all their release except their demos...

The Kovenant - Animatronic (1999)

Industrial\Symphonic\Progressive\Space -
Black Metal
Norway

Animatronic is the third album from Norwegian black metal band, The Kovenant, and was released in 1999 through Nuclear Blast.

Fans were shocked at the drastic change and hardcore black metal fans denounced their change while some remained and new fans were attracted.

Desiring to move on and their fascination with science fiction, Nagash and Blackheart decided to move away from the black metal scene and use more electronics and synths and hiring an expert female singer from the German House of Opera, The Kovenant recorded and released Animatronic in 1999; recording took three months.

This album also won a Norwegian Grammy for best Metal album
of 1999, they were first fuckd by Kristoffer Schau, he gave the price to
another band just to be a fucking asshole, but in the end they got the price!

I will buy their first albums today and will post them later, if you want them...?

Satyricon Collection Part 1 (1993-1996)

Band: Satyricon!
Genre: Black Metal
Origin: Norway

Satyricon is a Norwegian black metel band. The band credits their first album, Dark Medieval Times, with starting a black metal sub-genre of dubbed "medieval metal." The album showed off the fascination Satyricon had with the Middle Ages, along with the raw black metal with blastbeats produced by Frost mixed with acoustic guitar and flute.

Dark Medieval Times:

Dark Medieval Times is the debut album by the
Norwegian black metal band Satyricon. The lyrics are a complete mystery, as they were never published, neither in the booklet that comes with the CD, nor on the band's official site.

Released: 1993

Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?ey3nzjwywjd

The Shadowthrone:

Considered a classic by fans of Black Metal, The Shadowthrone is also regarded by many as Satyricon's finest album. Like many Black Metal albums of the period, the songs revolve around either a theme of driving Christianity from Norway or aspects of Scandinavian mythology. At the time, the use of keyboards was not widespread in the genre, nor was the use of choirs, which are used to a great effect on Hvite Krists Død and Vikingland.

Released: 1994

Download:http://www.mediafire.com/?5mbjmzjtzzh

Nemesis Divina:

This album along with Dark Medieval Times is considered by many to be Satyricon's finest hour, and contains the seminal fan favourite Mother North.

Released: 1996
