Top 10 Black Metal Albums of 2025

Описание: In continuation of my end-of-the-year series, these are my Top 10 Black Metal Albums of 2025.
Black metal is a genre I only really started diving into within the last few years, but in that time I’ve discovered an incredible range of sounds, styles, and approaches. For this list, I’m including black metal in all of its forms: traditional, melodic, atmospheric, post-black, folk-influenced, and blackened hybrids. Many of the albums on this list blend other genres into their black metal foundation, and that diversity is part of what made this list so interesting to put together.
Below is the full list of albums in alphabetical order.
👉 Watch the video to see how they are officially ranked from #10 to #1.
Albums Featured (Alphabetical Order)
1914 - Viribus Unitis
Blackbraid - Blackbraid III
