Exclusive EP Stream: Vatican, Spawn of All Pain Taken
Vatican play just the kind of aggressive, post-hardcore inspired metal that we love at The MetalSucks Mansion. Riffy enough to get the Lamb of God devotees headbanging, aggressive enough to get the Converge kids moshing, unsettling enough to make a Gojira fan turn and take notice and hooky enough to catch the ear of a casual passer-by, Vatican have all the pieces in place for a successful recipe to domination. (Anyone remember Unholy? Vatican remind us a whole lot of those guys.)
Today MetalSucks is chuffed to premiere Vatican’s brand new two-song EP Spawn of All Pain Taken, which is out now and can be streamed in full below. You can purchase it on Bandcamp if you like… and why wouldn’t you want to? Trust us, you’re gonna love it.
Catch Vatican and Heavens Die on tour this spring with Old Wounds, Cruel Hand and more on select shows; dates underneath the embed.
