For a long time I had an impression of Thrash as "fun, but staid"(Not throwing shade, I'm a basic ass OSDM plebe.), but these posts really have shown me that "actually yeah there's a lot of vibrancy and fun melding going on here".

This kicks some serious ass, great find I'd never even heard of these guys. I've really been enjoying seeing these bands that do something interesting with thrash, please keep sharing. Any rate, cool to see these guys share a guitarist with Necrot, which is also one of the more fun Old School Death Metal acts that have cropped up lately.
Fuck yeah man, I was a little worried when I saw "crossover", but nah it works perfectly here. I wanna see these guys live in a hot Tampa Dive bar, that'd be the perfect venue for this.
Glad to see some actually heartening news. I desperately hope at least some people look at this, and realize that treating prisoners like actual citizens and human beings is a basic necessity, and not a privilege they should have to earn.
You can pretty much pick up Summoning from any album, they started out metal-focused with their earlier releases like Minas Morgul, so those might not match the "chill" vibe. That said, everything after Dol Guldur starts to lean all the way into Dungeon Synth. Personally, I think the best album to start with is probably Let Mortal Heroes Sing Your Fame, I've always felt it was the moment they perfected their sound.
The lowest hanging fruit for recommending here is probably Summoning, that's about as close to a band who's entire concept is "Chill Mordor Ambiance". Alternatively, anything in the Atmospheric-Black Metal to Dungeon Synth pipeline, Ornatorpet, Paysage D'Hiver, or Old Sorcery. You might not find the screechy vocals to your taste, but it has unmatched Atmosphere.
Love these dudes, perfect balance of extreme metal with fun with no compromise on either.
Hah same, real shame too because these games have been a treat so far.
The look on Sid's face said it all.
Some of the best hockey I've seen all year.
In contrast US is acting asleep at the wheel for the third so far. One goal isn't much of a lead fellas.
I just stumbled across this while flipping through lemmy communities. This one has always seemed the most active out of the Lemmy metal communities that I've seen, so I figured, what the hell, let's see what's going down.
As for OSDM recommendations? I can't really say for certain how "obscure" these are but I'll try my best, although I'm not gonna be too particular about it being "strictly" OSDM. I've been super into the new LP from Stenched, very slimy production. This new album from Ruinous Power really caught my attention, they kind of give off a blackened Blood Incantation vibe to me at times, super cool but I really feel they need some more time in the oven. I feel morally obligated to at least rep Skeletal Remains, their fairly well known by most people in the scene, but I am literally wearing their tour shirt, and they absolutely killed it live. This is also far from obscure, but please, you owe it to yourself to check out Jungle Rot if you somehow haven't given them a fair shake yet. Seriously, I hardly ever see them get brought up in conversations, and I think that's kinda tragic because they're the closest thing America had as an answer to Bolt Thrower.
