Looking for Dark, Island-like music

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   So...
I am a huge fan of Island's album Pictures and the prelude recordings Pyrrho. They are just absolutely magnificent masterpieces and I am looking for more in a similar atmosphere and vein as Island, if there is any such prog out there that can be considered in the same wheelhouse. I don't care how niche it is, because at this point I usually prefer one-off niche and unheard of bands to more well-known groups anyways (case in point, wishing for more music similar to a band that sings about "gastric juices").

Any suggestions?

	Island was great, and also pretty much one of a kind. Having said that, I can think of some other things that may evoke a similar mood, even if they don't conjure the particular sound-world of Island. Peter Frohmader's Nekropolis, Hölle im Angesicht from Musik Aus Dem Schattenreich: Shub-Niggurath, Incipit Tragaedia from Les morts vont vite: Athanor, Vos cités sont des tombeaux: http://athanor.bandcamp.com/album/vos-cit-s-sont-des-tombeaux Univers Zero, La Faulx from Heresie: Note: Edited to remove full-album Youtube videos, in line with a policy I only recently became aware of.

	Soldato of the Pan Head Mafia. We'll make you an offer you can't listen to. Bandcamp Profile
