We've grown incredibly weary of having to navigate tons of sketchy and sometimes downright fash bands being promoted on various YouTube channels and other outlets. Instead, we've decided to simply stop bothering with these ⤵️

Today we're premiering the new @mossknightcometh.bsky.social album, a lovely tale about wet shoes and drying them as the storm passes by, after a day of tiring work in the rain... A soul-warming gift for those who toil and are only met with disdain and hate.

Giving my Bluesky peeps exclusive first-look, I have a new single entitled 'Weeping of the Ainur' coming out next month! This is a standalone track, written for a benefit comp that is TBA. More details to come, just felt like giving a little tease 🙄

"Fucked Into Nonexistence" is a delightfully murky onslaught of death metal and grindcore. These songs will pulverize you into dust, just as the mysterious Dungavenhooter does to its prey.

Sometimes a healthy dose of raw, anguished powerviolence is needed to channel one's own misery... and move beyond it.
For that brand of blackened medicine, we recommend DONE and their "Rest to Rust" EP.
