Here is a CD featuring tracks of Delta blues/gospel legend Son House. Heavy music wrenched up from and overcoming tragedies on fertile soil. Watch this video of him performing "Death Letter"
Pesanta Urfolk and Gilead Media collaborate to release a split 7" between Hell and Thou. Relentless sludge on both sides. . Hell's condemns the listener to eternal damnation and you probably know exactly what to expect from a Thou song at this point.
purchase it from Pesanta, (it's in a very pretty jacket o: )
Here is Oregon's Hell's second full-length, orchestrated ov abyssal gut sludge crowned with pretty melodies and blasting black metal teeth. Cassette by Eternal Warfare and LP by Pesanta Urfolk. Listen to this.
Here is Finnish death/doom (excited to hear it yet?) band Swallowed's self-titled EP. It consumes the listener in slow lurking horror and it disintegrates the listener in the churn of vile riffs.
Here is a compilation tape of the music released by Oregon's Ancestortooth. Ancestortooth played utterly heavy, megalithic sludge/doom. Music that sounds like the approach of an immense and unknowable entity.
Here is a 2012 bandcamp demo release from backwoods Georgia's Dead Southern Bishop called "Hymns of Malice and Discontent." The band offers relentless sweltering sludge. Malicious grooves lurch up from the swamp to crush.
Here is the first album from Salem, Oregon's Hell, released on tape by Woodsmoke and LP by Pesanta Urfolk. The true spirit of evil and fell crushing sludge/doom metal. Hell is awesome. You will die.
Listen to "Brutus" on youtube.
Here is a 2009 compilation by Nuclear Winter of Teitanblood's demo and two splits which were released prior to Seven Chalices. This is profane black death. Rawer material from these earlier releases lacks some of the aesthetic detail of their masterful LP and drowns the listener in sheer vomit. Listen to "Necrosemen" on youtube.
