Do you mean Raw as in Gravelands early demo's or Raw as in Ildjarns Strength & Anger? If you mean low quality (which I think you do) then it really depends on the band, for instance Paysage d'Hiver pull it off really well and it goes with the atmosphere however bands like Mutiilation do it stupidly, like one of their EP's has a better recording quality than their full length, which also keeps changing the volume through out so it gets real annoying at times.

If you are referring to Ildjarns Raw then apparently Forest Poetry is the best (Which I have not got yet) and also Deathspell Omega's Infernal Battles is pretty raw... though you would probably perfer SMRC.
