Thou Shell Of Death
The Baltic countries are enormously underestimated when it comes to (Black) Metal, but there is a vivid scene out there with lots of excellent bands and projects. There are undeniable and pretty important parallels with the East-European (more specific: the Russian and Polish) and the Scandinavian (more specific: Finnish) scene, but there is something that characterises the sound from many records done in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. That is why I am (almost) always unhappily happy when I have the opportunity to listen to new stuff from out there.
