The Hellenic Black Metal scene makes me proud to be greek.. nonetheless awesome video as always brother, keep it up ;3

[@zimorog]

Thanks man! i enjoyed greek black metal before but when i was making this video i discovered nadiwrath and devathorn, amazing bands. Had to do this video but ended up listening to those bands whole night xD

Η αλήθεια είναι ότι αργησα να μαθω οτι η Ελλάδα βγαζει τέτοια διαμάντια

[@OminousIllustrations]

​@@aa-uk5uccheck out Deviser. They are a ruby :)

[@bluewinter6660]

I love hellenic Black Metal also your videos! Keep it up!

[@zimorog]

thanks =)

Greek black metal is pretty unique, different from the scandinavian sound.

[@ejokurirulezz]

Welp, even Scandinavian sounds have their "profile" pretty much. Like Swedish being more aggressive, Finnish being more melodic/punky, and Norwegian being more, well, cold.

[@philipposkasotis8658]

This is awesome. The Hellenic bands are truly the best to me.

[@svartframtid5539]

What an epic beginning with "Hymn to Apollo". It introduced Kawir to me.

[@empousa8680]

Same, now it's my favorite band

[@IAmAleksha]

Good to see some Rotting Christ here. I actually met the band a few months ago after being front row for their set. They signed my Aealo shirt, it was great. One of my favourite bands of all time. You did that killer riff justice.

[@zimorog]

Yeah, Rotting Christ kills. It was hard to choose but i like the message in that song =)

[@IAmAleksha]

Zimorog Band I love Daemons and the older pre-Dead Poem work but In Yumen has a great riff, The Four Horsemen from Rituals too. I'm a fan old and new. Always will be.

[@kostashellspawn7]

Hails from Athens, Greece! Great tribute my friend! Keep up the great work!

[@martinemouth-breaker1939]

I'm half Greek and was very exposed to the culture with going to Greek school every Saturday for 7 years. I love a lot of Greek metal bands, mainly because of that special sound and it makes me smile to myself and think "yep! that's Greek". a lot of these bands are no exception :)

Everyone talks about Scandinavian black metal so it's always nice to hear new stuff. Could you please do more eastern stuff like Russia and Japan? Thanks

[@zimorog]

Well these videos take a lot of time, There will definitely be more but it will take some time. I'll do a lot of countries and i am not looking where the country is located. I'm doing this because of what you said. Only to serve some good black and so people can see every country has it's advantages =)

[@diekrahe.]

Alright, thanks man. Keep up the awesome vids!

[@olan2652]

Just love your version of Hymn to Apollo I love your videos too Greetings from Italy ( Italian Alps )\,,/

[@pa.ro.dy.3045]

I feel so happy, i know that my country that i thought had nothing to do with good music, good black metal bands, just a great feeling

[@abominog888]

I love Sorgelig and Caedes Cruentas, hello from USA. Greek Black Metal Rules!

[@ejokurirulezz]

Great vid! Even though late. Was surprised I didn't see the intro riff of Acherontas' Hermeticism to be honest.

[@paulakrit1308]

Being Greek I can feel that someone from Greece wrote the first one (and some others maybe).

[@ΠαρατηρητήςΠιθήκων]

very good channel bro! you sould make a part2 video! keep up the good work!

[@zimorog]

thanks!

[@giannispapathanasiou8954]

Nice video mate! keep it up!!

[@zimorog]

thanks a lot!

[@NocturnalServant777]

Oh my, that guitar tone at the beginning of the video is absolutely beautiful.

[@partuziusmaximus7969]

Awesome stuff Partuza!!!

[@amogus1303]

Tabs για ύμνο στον Απόλλωνα?

[@Senseimeditacion]

Hey man you do it again!! :D

[@zimorog]

yup :D

[@nightmarenyxcc]

Excellent! Although I expected some Deviser!

[@zimorog]

Thanks! Couldn't put them all :P

[@ColeMacGrathgr]

Threnody

[@ThePandE]

Great list for sure. You guys who are in to extremely complex musical compositions should check out the one man band Spectral Lore. Spectral Lore's III is the best black metal album I've heard in 10 years, check out the tracks called "The Veiled Garden" and "The Cold March Towards Eternal Brightness". Spectral Lore is hellenic progressive atmospheric BM.

[@zimorog]

Thanks for the recommendation! Hellenic black rules!

[@diegofox9443]

I've found your channel just a few weeks ago and I really enjoy your videos! You know a lot about the genre and share your knowledge in a fun way. I've also been listening to your album "Winter Horns" and it sounds amazing man! Cheers from Argentina! :D

[@zimorog]

Thanks a lot for your kind words, i really appreciate it! =)

[@sakis83]

im from greece and this is a great set listes.epecially the thou art lord song .very good

[@zimorog]

[@codydeshayes9051]

fuck yea dude great playing. can't wait to hear what you do next! \m/

[@Androb3lian]

great performance!

[@zimorog]

thanks!

[@janneplanman6433]

I used to travel to Greece a lot when I was young. I do not really know any greek bands, but I really love the On Thorns I Lay album Orama🇫🇮

[@0777coco]

I hope we'll be able to add _Hail Spirit Noir_ one day. They're one truly awesome band, adding Psych and Prog Rock to their Black Metal sound.

[@KAOTSOUKI]

Congratulations \m/

[@Dolores-Cine]

Hmm some good discoveries and some great classics outa here ! :) It's a shame, in France we don't see these bands very often in tour (except for Rotting Christ ). Hope seeing Zemial and Nadiwrath one day

[@zimorog]

Yeah great bands, thats the problem in every country i think hehe. I'll cover France one day :)

[@Dolores-Cine]

Zimorog Band Great idea ! :)

[@kaos4687]

[@zimorog]

[@МихаилЙотов-з2ю]

[@zimorog]

It is xD

[@johnz1385]

I believe an Order of the ebon hand riff is needen on this video. Hails from Greece

[@abdallahhasheed5622]

Burial hordes??

[@keremali9840]

Rotting chris is grece?

[@valentineshades7235]

hymn to apollo tabs!?!?

[@Mike-san92]

I mean, basically hellenic black metal is for who like summer and sea instead of winter e mountain.. i'm joking, i love both and you choose some great tracks! Unholy funeral is my favorite one.. and His Majesty at swamp my favorite hellenic BM record.

[@ShadarVonHell]

My favourite Rotting Christ song is Ad Noctis from "Genesis" album.

[@cluedoyeah.5653]

Marcin Plewczyński Mine is Demonon Vrosis, keep finding myself listening to it often

[@georgekrutz8292]

Great job! What is your favorite Greek Black Metal band?

[@lucascruz750]

Can you do from Portugal?

[@L4MD4]

No DODSFERD? Holy crap, what a missed opportunity

[@Arpia-Hellas]

nadiwrath ;)

[@kaos4687]

where did you get the guitar tabs for stutthof - wampyric metamorphosis?

[@zimorog]

nowhere, i learned it by ear

[@herrnoatun882]

About to watch it, I hope there's some Kawir in there.

[@herrnoatun882]

Not wrong! Greek Black Metal is really unique, it's sounds evoke a warm Mediterranean night in a graveyard.

[@theRealHS]

FINALLY SOME GOOD FUCKIN MUSIC

[@acid99]

The End of Nadiwrat's Track - The Last Days of the Parasitical Results of Humanity... mindblasting!

[@emanuele20692]

[@zimorog]

On list =)

[@El-Villano-De-La-Pelicula]

Anything Called Dodsferd ?

[@DeadCosmicAstronaut]

I though that you will play riff of The sing of evil existence but Non Serviam is also cvlt :D

[@zimorog]

it's always hard to choose :P

[@DeadCosmicAstronaut]

Zimorog Band I think so :D

[@victimaut7539]

no Astarte :( i'd suggest to listen Darchon. Very cool ambient black metal project from Greece, sad but not iconic (yet) :) i voobshe, kakogo hera ya herachu na inglishe, kogda ti vrode russkiy ponimaesh)

[@zimorog]

Can't put them all :/ thanks for the recommendation =)

[@daedricdemon7029]

No Ravencult or Acrimonious?

[@adrijanl3832]

Oh damn...is Septicflesh a joke to you... :/

[@thanos607]

societas satanas tabs plz

[@j1shin]

Nice, but why no Dodsferd?

[@zimorog]

I planned to put their song also called dodsferd but it was really messy to play, couldn't catch it :/

[@muhammadrezahaghiri]

Don't forget France! awesome bands such as Nocturnal Depression and Anorexia Nervosa :D

[@zimorog]

France is on my list "to do" maybe not soon but it will definitely be here :)

[@HeathenMetalhead221]

Great Video! But needs more Astarte :/ They're the Queens of Black Metal!

[@zimorog]

can't put them all :P
