A lot of good recommendations. Especially Fullmetal Alchemist. I went on a bit of a manga reading binge a few months ago. I read through 3 different series from Naoki Urusawa. I read: Monster, Pluto, and 20th Century Boys.
Urusawa is one of the best in the business at building up tension. I would say between these 3 I would go with Pluto or Monster first. 20th Century Boys is good. But very long and wasn’t as satisfying as it could have been. Pluto is technically a remake of an Astro Boy arc that Urusawa grew up loving and worked with Osamu Tezuka’s family to create. If you like Hunter x Hunter, the creator made one of my favorite series ever in YuYu Hakusho. It’s a timeless classic.
Blackbraid - Blackbraid II (Black Metal)
I honestly need to credit Jon for his work as a one man band. The first Blackbraid album last year helped me re-discover a love for black metal. And this album is an improvement in almost every way.
