Smohalla - Résilience (2011)
Unorthodox, industrial-tinged French black metal. Smohalla's sound is chaotic and cerebral -- a densely layered cacophony of guitars, multi-faceted keyboards, and vocals that range from low growls to high-pitched shrieks to reverb-y clean singing. Same school of black metal as their fellow countrymen Blut Aus Nord, but their sound is their own. It's a diverse set of highly intricate songs, and though you may immediately find Résilience to be rewarding, it will probably take you a few listens to really get your head around it.
