Hello!
I came across this place after @mabla linked it in one of the Discords. I really like smaller communities. (Although the best of both worlds, to me, is a small, tight-knit discord server.)
I discovered NW several months ago. My first few songs of theirs were Élan, Alpenglow, and The Islander. I'm still relatively new to the metal genre in general.
I also like electronic and electro-pop music, Celtic and similar-sounding folk music, orchestral/cinematic type music, and some random bands that don't really fit in any of these genres. The metal bands that I like so far (in addition to NW) are Eluveitie, Cellar Darling, Epica, Blackbriar, and Hammerfall.
Fun fact: I was led to NW through Auri, which I found and fell in love with first 😄
