Thanks for posting BMP as always we are all too damn spoiled for you to be giving us these awesome releases 🤘🏻
A journey through storms brings me great pleasure
How abt the Lost Relics part? 5 instrumental tracks that I had no idea they existed since no streaming app included them...
😀👍
WOW❤
Remember kids, when an album has blue colors, it is a gem.
Next album cover I design for my blackened drone doom metal band has to have some evil blue in it.
Worked for Dessection.Emperor.Bal Sagoth.Dimmu Borger.ABSU.Dark Funeral.Belphagor and so many more. Purple works too!
I have a collection of full purple and blue albums ;) and all of them are so good!
Lord Belial "Enter The Moonlight Gate"
Sanctuary : Refuge Denied (1988) - RIP Warrel Dane
Dissection, Emperor, Blind Guardian, Summoning, Borkangar, Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, At the Gates...The influences on here just don't stop,
This album is a perfect representation of what people who truly have fondness and passion for metal can create and i love it
I'm a simple man. I see a fortress in a tundra and a wizard. I hit like 2 seconds in then I listed to album and I love it
same,bro.
Classic move!
I done the exact same thing I’m going to listen to the album after my friend goes home.
Never agreed more with a RUclips comment.
Level up and invest into Vitality.
This is everything melodic black metal should be
exactly. This is PEAK melodic black metal. I was stunned from the first note.
@@user-mo5qq5dp6u Me too! My doctor says, it's a "Repeat addiction" - and there is no cure...
🔝👍🏽🤟🤘🏽 👍💗💙💚💛🧡💜🖤
😀👍
But with folk influences jeje. That makes this band unique. So fucking cool
Blind Guardian meets Emperor meets Immortal
Meets
There’s something about the 80s-90s fantasy themes that just draws me in no matter the genre, whether it be Rhapsody or Summoning, there’s just something great about it
Facts
Agreed
This came out 2 years ago
@@Daniel-mn4fu It’s about the vibe, most Rhapsody and Summoning albums were released post-2000 (or late 90s), yet they still have the vibe
i thought of "kings of the nordic twilight" when i saw this album cover
This is some serious gourmet shit
This type of metal and cover art always makes me want to read classic dark fantasy books like Elric.
YES!
Go for it! Whether by book or graphic novel, read and read some more!
Yyrkoon, you paltry bombast, your sorcery is weak!
Would anyone else other than myself lose it if Stormkeep toured with Immortal & Satyricon ? ? ? 😮 🤨 😈 🤤
This is when Blind Guardian Meets Emperor and then Immortal, and then they combine together it turns out to be a gem and this album speaks as well as it is.
This could be a Castlevania soundtrack. Back when it was good that is.
Crazy that the Blood Incantation drummer is doing vocals here. BI needs to utilize his skills.
Yeah, everyone in that band is insanely talented!
i did not know this
Iterrrrrresting
yo, thats crazy!
first I've listened this album and than read the reviews about album. Reading the album review spoiled my mood. I also hear the influence of Borknagar, dimmu borgir or other groups. but when making one type of music, it is normal to take on some features of other music of that type. some of them wrote good reviews, but some of them spoiled the magical atmosphere of the album while trying to interpret it. As someone who has been listening to metal for 30 years, I prefer to trust my own heart and ears, rather than listening to someone's comments. Stormkeep did a very good job. Even I don't like anything American or Americanized. I listened to the album over and over again with pleasure without skipping any songs. And I'm sure I'll listen to it for a few more months and get the same pleasure.
These are my favorite black metal albums--the kind that take you through a dark dungeon crawl. This is without a doubt one of my favorites. These guys are going right up there with Faidra.
Back to the year 95,very strong, Scandinavia touch, this beautiful band from the USA 💪🇺🇸☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️👻🇦🇹🙋♀️❄️
😀👍
Elric of Melnibon white hair flowing in the wind, black sword swinging...things that come to mind while listening to this....
fucken great to see an American band produce art like this, fucken sick skole
TL;DR. Well, this albums is pure gold in my honest opinion. It brings me back to late 90's or early 00's, back to those days when I was like 13-14 yo. I live in Poland and then we (me, and my back-then friend O.) used to got copies of bm albums from local record store. We went there as kiddos (by bikes of course) with tapes and rip some tracks from CDs which were offered to sell. We knew the record store owner, so that was easier. We ripped Emperor, Darkthrone, as well as some Metallica's, Therion's, Iron Mainden's etc. Metal, only metal. We wore only black, with silly crosses from local marketplace hanging on our chests. We got one or two tapes full of new songs. We went back home to O.'s basement to listen to, with only candles lighten up. Pure darkness over there, so many good memories and feelings... damn, this album reminds it all!!!
And now, I'm 35+ yo, with my own kiddos doing internet stuff. I do not know what O. is doing since like 15 years... maybe he's not alive even. And I'm drinking whiskey with cola listening to this album, kids are sleeping, wife is sleeping. And a little tear appears in my eye... so much emotions with this album. Well done guys, fucking well fucking done.
This is a modern black metal classic, hands down.
black metal is amazing genre of music
2021?! How! I was like this has to be something from '94 that somehow stayed under the radar for years.
The epitome of 90's atmospheres without being trapped into stupid revivalism, with the same kind of freshness/vitality it had back then, and the same sense of grandeur and baroque madness which is the hallmark of the best ones (these bands who understood that there could be an infinity of shades of black/dark). Another masterpiece on the top 10 end of the year list !
(One of the best artworks too).
Man, now I am very interested in you top 10. Nice review
it sounds very much likè dissection do you agree
I think that's what I was looking for trying to describe it to myself!
Totally agree!
Agree. Who are the other top 10?
On my 5th listen in 3 days
2019 best thing in music was Riot City
2020 was Bütcher and Galdrum
2021 Stormkeep all the way
Windir/Dissection vibes. Approved!
This album gets better song after song
There is one comment saying it has Sacramentum vibe too and I definitely agree.
Increíble album muchas gracias por compartir magnífica obra maestra 🎉 🇨🇱 gracias Black metal Promotion ❤❤
seeing this live in 2 months and can't FUCKING wait
Ok Good CD Band Melodic Black metal of USA 🤘🎸😊🇺🇸⭐💛❤️☀️👍🎸🥰😻💗😍🐱💘🥰👄🌹💎⚔️🛡️🔥💕🌠🌟💘❤️
i m a 90's metalhead.and this awesome album reminds me 90's
what 90's albums does this remind you of, exactly ?
@@TheFistler Emperor, Satyricon, Dissection, Immortal....this album have a little bit of everything of these
Wow, wtf. This is some of the best melodic black metal I've ever heard... and I've heard a LOT.
Majestic sound
wow ok,ok,ok so good
This album owns.
I fieal like back to the 90s
This is good.
Holy shit. The most fun I've had listening to metal in a while.
Hands down the greatest melodic sword and sorcery black metal album in decades. Holy shit Stormkeep is S-tier.
Give merch. Now!
Honestly, when you see "black metal" and "united states" in the same sentence your prejudice kicks in. But my gut feeling was wrong. This is solid stuff.
Exactly. I listened to them before I heard where they hailed from. Just goes to show.....
Yup, I always imagine a bunch of peeps in either Denver, Colorado or somewhere in Oregon when I find out about US black metal bands lol. I agree though, sick album.
Agalloch and Caladan Brood are from the United States as well.
Check out Stormruler.
During the last 10 years I've mostly been listening to USBM. Leviathan lifted the bar so high that I can't really even get back to listening to our European bands.
Definetely this album is a gem, the colors of artwork, the cold and somber riffs, all is amazing, thank you BMP for show us this masterpiece
I remember I had tears the first time i heard the part at 17:50 until the end of the song, when the song was still just a preview. Cannot tell why this part killed me.
I wept
remembered your comment
then came back to agree
Because it's epic
discazo!!
Great album. The perfect combination between old Dimmu Borgir's majestic/symphonic black, Dissection's melodic black & Summoning's epic atmospheric black.
nailed it
i can hear elements of Emperor and Bal Sagoth in there as well
Canonical 90's symphonic black metal, a true gem, not need to say more
Enormous 😀👍👍
Can we talk about the part from 27:44 to 28:16? Jesus christ that was incredible.
Goosebumps, It’s almost to perfect.
🔥🔥 100%
Yeah I love the parts with the clean vocals and the screams. Really ood
but first let's talk about 7:52 to 8:25. i'd marry that riff if i could.
It has a Caladan Brood vibe
refreshingly oldschool. if this makes any sense
On another level of good
My ears are so pleased!
Dude, this was sick
Wow, what a journey
Best Album of The Decade thusfar?
With creative forces behind Wayfarer, Blood Incantation, and Lykotonon how could it not be a masterpiece.
Morbid Black Metal Is Beatyful !!!
Best album of the year. In second is hooded Minnis.
Lol, I never thought I'd agree with someone nicknamed "Satanic cannibal", but in this case you are spot on: Hooded Menace is almost as awesome as this album. Also check out Haavukruunu (the album with the two dudes killing each other with swords on the cover).
⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️
I added this to my Good Tunes playlist awhile back. I know everything I add is for a reason, but god DAMN, I forgot how good this is.
Usbm is becoming a real force some really good new bands from there
“A WIZARRRD, WISE AND POWERFUL!”
in one word : EPIC, reminds me of Old SETH, Les Blessures de l'Ame period
Holy f*ck! Great album here.
Holy fuck this rules
awesome
these clean vocals are on another level...
I see a snowy mountain, a wizard and a dark fortress. I hear cheesy and awesome Black Metal. I'm fucking in, let's go LARPing and play DnD.
Dissection + early Dimmuy Borgir + Summoning = Stormkeep. Good stuff!
I hear some Diabolical Masquerade too..
I'm getting EARLY (first 2 albums) Satyricon vibes from it as well
And Borknagar
...and some Bal-Sagoth too.
Also some windir in there!
I can feel the Vintersorg influence
30+ years into metal and a good 20 around academic music theory, I have developed a pretty fast skip reflex... yet this one managed to hook the 90s black metal kid in me and keep me listerning! Great work!
Started listening to death/black metal when I was 14/15 in 1992. No degree in theory, but I have a great ear all around. no skip on this one for sure. For example back in early 1996, I was ahead of all my highschool peers in general, and had discovered Dissection right when Storm of the Lights bane came out. 5 of us headed up to SF to see Dissection/At The Gate and Morbid Angel. Dissection being the opening band that no one really knew much about in my group but I was pumped and get pumping them up about how much they were going to kick ass. Dissection blew the ENTIRE crowd of Death Metallers there to see Morbid Angel and At The Gates. Needless to say, me and all my friends loaded up on Dissection Merch after the show.
Doing some prep work for Party San this week, seen melodic black metal with Dissection influence, decided to have a wee look, and here I am.
One track in and my mind is made up. I am definitely seeing these guys on Saturday! Loving the sound!
Update: Seen these guys on Saturday and they absolutely killed it - an easy recommendation for any fans of Dissection or Windir.
Roll the D20 for initiative.
🤫N.american metal is killing it lately
This album makes me wanna ride a horse into a tornado.
How did ya go? 🤷♂️🤣
This boosts synaptic plasticity🧠🦹♂🦄🕸
I’ve been waiting so long for new Stormkeep
Damn, this is epic as fuck!
This is exactly what I needed. Aaarrgghh
Instant gratification 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Fantastic!
wow, that cover!!!
Great! Thanks and salutes from Brazil!
good stuff
An instant classic, and a perfect album. By far the best black metal album I've heard in years.
damned it's beautifull, it's like going 30 years in the past.
Something tells me those guys are D&D player or atleast heroic fantasy fans
As I've gotten older, structure has become more important for me and this album nailed it! The whole album moves perfectly with the acoustic brakes in song nr. 2 and 5. And the way it all comes together in 'Eternal Majesty Manifest' is so good! I'm on the edge of my seat towards the end and I just feel like playing it again once it's done. 10/10.
yes, structure is vital. i agree. well said.
Same here. I can't just listen to a seven minute, dissonant riff-fest. It has to go somewhere or have breaks that amplify the more abrasive parts.
US is kicking ass recently ! Well done guys !
NICE!
Awesome
this was the fastest insta-buy ever. how did I miss this 4 months ago is a mystery. BMP best channel ever
HOLY FUCK!! AMAZING
I’ll keep my storm.
pure magic build
The serpents stone is still impressive after over 100 times of listening 🖤 this Album is Genius.
This is unbelievable. They absolutely nailed the 90’s sound with something totally fresh. One of the best albums I’ve heard in years.
This album is a miracle, and I'm not even a great black metal fan.
love when i find gems.. as rare as they are nowadays
a breathtaking journey through a cold, fantastic world, told in a beautiful and exciting way, absolutely fantastic!
Wow just wow
Mélange Windir et emperor . Tuerie !!!
my blood pressure dropped when i heard The serpent's Stone
