Final - Reading All The Right Signals Wrong

Snag this jewel at the record shop not long ago, didn't know it was even out. The latest from the genius of aggressive music Justin K. Broadrick, it is exactly what you would think. Droning ambient melodies spreading over like waves. the cover is a great example. very spacious and thick with harmonies and noises. 

8/10

Wolves In The Throne Room- Malevolent Grain EP

Highly recommend this record here!  Hauntingly melodic and fast, the side A is my favorite track. Guest vocals by Jamie Meyers are beautiful and choral great addition to the extreme riffing behind it. this record also features the newest member Will Lindsay (formerly of Middian) his influence is a factor in the direction this Black Metal defying band is going. this is an excellent record.

Received my 2x LP w/back patch Xasthur "All Reflections Drained" today and W H O A ...
upon listening it vomits you into a bottomless pit of decaying sounds and horrific ambience, the guitars are eerie and creep like black tar. Malefic with thunderous drumming lurking behind the soundscapes makes your soul pound with fear. absolute brilliant orchestration of blackness, you must hear this record! takes black metal to new depths...seriously

Here is the first piece of artwork for the Swine Suicide cassette tape. this is just half of what is to come, i am currently working on the cover for this release and also working on some artwork for another project called School Spirit. School Spirit is a good old rock n roll/garage/pop band and they are putting out some good stuff in the near future! it can be heard here at:

i also received my Leviathan CD "Verrater" it is G R I M , D A R K , B E A U T I F U L and T R U E black metal. Wrest is a genius orchestrator and people should appreciate his art form, satanic or not it is still music. my values and beliefs are not of his but his music is devastating and incredible. pick this album up!
