Haven't managed to find a DSBM-specific thread, so I'm creating a brand new one.

Bombard me with as many recommendations of good DSBM bands (the more underground, the better) as you can, please.

It is preferred for a band to not be classified as anything other than DSBM, but if it is and you feel it's more DSBM than atmospheric black/post-black, for example (like Ghost Bath’s debut), suggest it, too.

I would love getting recommendations of specific songs/albums, but it's not necessary.

The bands I like and have already listened to or plan to listen to:

Make a Change... Kill Yourself
Silencer
Psychonaut 4
Lifelover
Nocturnal Depression
Thy Light
Austere
Xasthur
Suizid
Woods of Desolation
Abyssic Hate
Life Is Pain
Ghost Bath
My Useless Life
Advent Sorrow
Exiled from Light
Hurt
Dismal
Nordicwinter
None
Beyond Melancholy
Deadlife
Autopsy
Abstinence
Silent Path
Begotten
Nymphrenia
Freitod
Sweet Torment
Ter Ziele
Suicidal Inc.
Forgive Me
Strid

The bands I disliked/didn't get into:

Shining
Sterbend
Apati
Anhedonia
Trist
Totalselfhatred
Nyktalgia
Through the Pain
Nihilistum
…When the Darkness Weeps

Looking forward to your replies!

I don't listen to DSBM a lot, but I'll name some bands I really enjoy (underground bands ofc)

Decallius :


Consider the Following: Suicide :


And lastly, Kuthran (these guys made a 4-way split with Decallius, Depression & Alone, so I'll send the split if u want to check the other bands)


Tell me what u think bro

I encourage you to check out what many consider to be the creators of the DSBM scene, Norway's Strid. Their one EP from 1994 is incredibly morose.

I have heard of them, of course, but never really checked them out. Will do, thanks for the suggestion.

There is a band called Drapsnatt which I really liked when I was into DSBM.

Wigrid - Hoffnungstod

Noenum - Black Esoteric Evangelium

Bruhlvahnatu - At War

Kältetod - Leere

Thanks again for the suggestion, both the demo and the EP are awesome, especially "Det hviskes blant sorte vinder".
