German black metal, not to be confused with the progressive/gothic metal band of the same name. Read this review posted at The Metal Crypt. I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Katharsis – VVorld VVithout End [2006]
Do you like Swedish hardcore/crust? If so, you have probably already heard this album and if you are new to this particular style of music, right here would be a good place to start. This is a must have for fans of Skitsystem and Wolfpack/Wolfbrigade and is available to purchase used or new at Amazon. UP THE PUNKS!
Martyrdöd – In Extremis [2005]
Debut album from The Sisters of Mercy and by far their best material. Despite frontman Andrew Eldritch’s highly vocal rejection of the designation “Goth”, First and Last and Always has consistently been praised in the canon of gothic rock, and in December, 1999, Q magazine included it in their list of “The Best Gothic Albums of All Time”.
I simply cannot praise it enough. Listen and enjoy.
