LISTEN: WODENSTHRONE’S THRONE OF WHOA
Every Tuesday, u probably slam the brakes on your work/school day to slavishly read Shit That Comes Out Today, the award-winning* MetalSucks new releases round-up. Doing that is both smart and awesome — the former cuz u listen free to all sorts of new shit, the latter cuz u so simply save a sweet record from maybe going undiscovered. So you’re helping yourself jam and helping the record be jammed. That’s really cool. You’re a hero, dude!
Let’s celebrate your excellence with a sneak peek at next week’s awesome STCOT; to u I present “The Storm” by Wodensthrone from their killer sophomore record Curse (out Tuesday duh). It’s incredible black metal: generic but expert, bereft of pretense or foofiness and loaded with passion and force, massively catchy and deeply affecting. Over the last couple days, I cranked Curse until being forbidden to continue; I then cranked Immortal’s All Shall Fall and Kampfar’s 2011 underdog classic Mare — each a cousin to Curse‘s blackly bloody sprawl. U jam! See u Tuesday!
