Black Metal as Ideology dies around '94..now it's just 'music'..much like punk. Still some good stuff going on though:
Nattefrost - Blood & Vomit, Terrorist
Nargaroth - Black Metal Ist Krieg
Dodheimsgard - Satanic Art EP
Carpathian Forest - Black Shining Leather
Leviathan - Verrater, Howl Mockery At the Cross, Tenth Sub-Level of Suicide, Tentacles of Whorror
Katharsis - VVorld VVithout End
Darkthrone - Hate Them, Sardonic Wrath, The Cult Is Alive
Xasthur - Nocturnal Poisoning
There you have it! Happy hunting for those not yet in the know. I've been listening to black metal for almost 10 years now and there's still some stuff I don't even have (more Ildjarn, Absurd, early Graveland, Varathron, etc.)
