| Anaon | An Harar hag ar Stereh | Description n/a. |
| Ancestors Blood | Forgotten Times | Third tape, and the return to HH. Without any doubt this is their best recording, surpassing all previous tapes regarding songwriting, sound and originality. Highly EPIC, melodic and atmospheric blackmetal, reminding a bit of old Norwegian black metal, but the material has become so good that it doesn't need comparisons. Six songs,almost half an hour of mists of thoughts and the warcries of a warrior. |

| Apolion | The Mute God of Deaf Men | One man Italian band. Somewhat rough production even though it was recorded in a studio. |

| Arkona/Moontower | W Szponach Wojennej Bestii | Four tracks from each of these long running Polish acts. Arkona plays blazing fast bm.

| Ascaroth | Emperor of Human Fears | Mid-paced, clean sounding, traditional style bm the Nordic way from this Swedish band. Inner Voice Records. |
| Aska | Dar Vanvett Gror | Four years after the first demo and the debut full length finally materializes. I was expecting it to be quite clean sounding. In fact, the rough, raw, dirty guitar tone is still there. Vocal approach is a little different. Seven tracks in total, two are noise pieces. Limited to 300 copies on Kassetten Edition Dreizack. |
| Ash Pool | Genital Tomb | New US band. Interesting demo here. At times some riffs sound like more traditional metal but this is black metal no doubt. Very good guitar work, very good vocals, solid material. A great demo from start to finish. Recommended. Tour De Garde. |
| Aske | Krigere | Demo from 1999, went on to become Odal. |
| Aske/Valgaldar | Split | Only other Aske demo release, now Odal. |
| Askelon | Arts of Penetration | Nothing flashy here. Very simple riffs, pitchshifted vocals, perverted samples. Almost comes across as industrial sounding. |

| AurvandiL | Demo II | One man project from France. Really good raw, gritty guitar tone. Tracks are typically faster than mid-paced but there are also moments of mellow guitar picking. Drum machine but it is not that bad. Not bad compared to most of the other crap recently. Six tracks, forty minutes. Limited to 100 copies on Winterreich. |
| Austere | Withering Illusions and Desolation | Slow, depressive and very atmospheric bm from this Australian duo. The production is on the cleaner side but it fits with this style of bm.

| Beastcraft | Crowning The Tyrant | Latest offering of Norwegian devil worshipping hymns on SPR. |
| Befoul | At the Devil's Mass | Here we have a brand spanking new project from none other than the mad Norwegian behind Unholy Crucifix. This project is not much of a stretch from UC. So if you are a fan of his material then this will probably be to your taste. This is a bit slower than UC but this recording along with the new UC is more lo-fi that Morbid Edifice was. A new blasphemous beast is born....Northern Sky Productions. |

| Black Autumn | Cult of Nihil | Slow German bm. But this really doesn't have the bleak, depressive feel, just a slow, indifferent almost calming atmosphere. Insikt. |
| Black Holocaust | Suffering | Released by the now defunct Goatsemen Records. |
| Black Howling | Alma...uma Floresta de Dor | Recently released by Winterreich on cd, the tape version is basically identical. Black Howling has been dwelling in the underground for some years now but does not release much material. One track, over forty minutes.The band paints a bleak, painful, slow epic composition. The production is typical for Black Howling, which means very rough and raw. For fans of slow, sorrowful black metal. Northern Sky Productions. |
| Black Howling/Pestiferium | Condenacao | One long track from Black Howling. Totally sick and vile, slow and gut wrenching. Pestiferium is more up tempo yet melancholic as well. The bands compliment each other well on this split. |
| Black September | Promo 2007 | One of the Neterlands oldest NSBM bands. Three tracks originall recorded in 2000 now remixed. Even though the tracks have been remixed they are still very raw sounding, nice indeed. Limited to 66 copies on Teutonic Satan. |
| Black Wood | Beyond The Black Forest | This is the first official release of the first album after the ten years of band existence, as stated on the cover. Dating back to 1997-1998. Surprisingly the production is not as shitty as I would have expected, still rough though. Not bad either. Limited to 500 copies. |
| Black Wood | The Call ov Zephyrous | First demo from this Peruvian horde. Eerie ambient soundscapes with some percussive elements. The first release of Sad Spirit Productions. Limited to 100 copies. |
