Kyla - Glory Of Negativity (2005)

Another depressive Black Metal jewel without any doubt, i must say, this is more minimalistic black metal, one monotonous riff, one rythm, cold and harsh vocals as always, this is a side project of Kim Carlsson (Hypothermia, Lifelover, Life Is Pain), is very good, and if you like DSBM as much as me, well you'll like this one.

Kladovest - Kladovest (2006)

The first full-length of this czech-ukrainian band, i like this band because (as a drudkh fan) sounds like drudkh, but more depressive (obviously, it's DSBM) but way more sad and actually you can feel the despair behind every track, is just like the cover of the release, claustrophobic sadness, can't describe it.

Be Persecuted - End Leaving (2009)

The cover of this release says all, it reflects truly what this band try to express, suicide over all, what else could be? being honest, this is not their best release and isn't a good one to describe the asian scene (in that case, you should try Svedhous to know a very good DSBM band coming from asia). But hey it doesn't mean that you shouldn't try this band, give it a chance, and maybe you'll be fascinated.

Be Persecuted - I.I (2007)

Another chinese band, this time we have a very interesting depressive black metal, but to me, being serious, is not so special, although this is the best release in my opinion, on some parts they have a little average depressive sound, and what i would say that is remarcable in this band are the vocals, full of hatred without doubt, sick and reminds me varg's vocals in albums like Det Som Engang Var, if you want to know more about asian scene, you should try this...

Astaroth & Svedhous - Split Album (2007)

Split between the depressibe black metal band and another band from South Korea, very good actually, i would say that the best part is the song of Svedhous "Taste That Mutilate Crowd's Ankles - Percolated" holy shit that's a good name for an awesome song, astaroth part is good but lack of originality, just in some parts, if you like a litlle bit average black metal well astaroth is your band, you know, kinda old school same riffs in some parts, but although, is a good band....

Ruined - Haunted House (2008)

Well for the people who criticize teenagers in the black metal scene (including me), let me tell you that the person who created this awesome album, when he created it he had 14 YEARS OLD, and he writed the songs when he had 12 YEARS OLD!! yes, now you can say "WTF", you have the right to... but not misunderstand, i have to say that this boy is a genious and he has done a fucking great album, some years ago.. and another tip, the lyrics are about Nature, Depression, Sorrow, and... again, WTF? Anti-War themes!!! Holy Shit! but no, this is not a White Metal band, he's just against war, have more ambient atmospheric parts that black metal in general bu it0s awesome!! seriously i recommend this!.

Svedhous - From Despair To Suicide (2008)

Svedhous - Path Of Suicide (2007)

In my opinion, all the releases of this band are great and i would say to you that all is recommended, i don't know you, but this is an unknown genious (G.H.), it's just amazing and very raw in the genre, with a sweet touch of Shoegaze or Post rock in it, makes the perfect combination of sui caedere..

Svedhous - Despair Poetry (2007)

A long time ago i came across this one men band, is from South Korea, very unusual this is, not too much is known about Korean scene, but this is a great example of the perversity and the sickness of the depressive black metal scene in Asia, i don't know why, but asian DSBM to me is very attractive, and this is not the exception, nothing is known about the only member of the band, actually we know nothing about this, except the music, is all we have...

Not too much bands coming from denmark, but the few bands that come from that country, are awesome bands!!, and this is not the exception, with a member of Angantyr, this band only have two releases, but you'll be satisfied if you like DSBM, reaching high levelsof depression and negativity in the lyrics, the name of the band let everything clear, just try.
