My Favorite Metal Band from Lithuania

Lithuania is not exactly well-known for their metal scene. I have albums from two bands from the country. Both are fairly raw black metal bands. Argharus probably wins in a close race just due to the superior productions value over Poccolus. The music has a cold atmosphere and the vocals are reminiscent of Attila Csihar's vocals on Mayhem's De Mysteriis Dom. Sathanas. Argharus sound like they would have been at home in Norway in the early 1990's.

HONORABLE MENTION:
Poccolus

  1. Is it just me, or does it seem that most countries with extremely small metal scenes tend toward raw black metal?

  2. It's not just you. I have noticed this as well. I wanted to do a large post about it, but I am not sure when I will ever get to it. Lots of stuff cooking right now.

  3. Ok, well if/when you get the time to do that, it sounds like an interesting read.
