Looks like mid metal album, never heard it.

UPD Also thrash metal in 1998? It was kind of uncool already.

Pretty popular black metal band (https://rateyourmusic.com/artist/watain), but I somehow missed them, didn't hear even one album.

Speaking of black metal bands I like try Lutomysl (more or less similar to Watain): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd3IO5--FiM

Or first Fleurety album (1995), this one is pretty avant-garde: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAGejbC7BbA
