   About Altar of Plagues


"With 'White Tomb' , Altar Of Plagues have morphed their layered sound into an apocalyptic sonic maelstrom that not only upholds the band’s black metal beginnings, but takes that initial paradigm and into more-vast, epic, experimental and ambient cinematic musical terrain. If black metal traditionally conjures scenes of epic nature, massive cascading waterfalls and engulfing forests, Altar Of Plagues create stark images of crumbling skyscrapers, dying and rotten urban structures, empty cracked worn down highways and desolate vast oceans."

Inspired by the unique land of the Burren, Co.Clare, "White Tomb" explores current global condition. Earthly connections have been lost; everything is draining of character and colour.

A White Tomb remains.

The Dungeon Awaits Podcast (NOW ON iTUNES!!!)





Jun 10 2009 8:42 PM


New Podcast
This week: D-FLOx and GRASSHOPPER du Cirque Noir are interrupted by a swirling SATANIC vortex, in which a gigantic purple horned demon emerges and demands
Ambient Black Metal from all over the planet. During the commercial break, D-FLOx and GRASSHOPPER recount the tale of chasing a worthless social vampire with a sharpened wooden stake to the tune of CANNIBAL CORPSE blasting out of D-FLOx's Mazda. GRASSHOPPER threatens to micturate upon D-FLOx for mispronouncing the plural form of "vortex" and promises his deadly stream will bear the stench of stale Jagermeister and old semen. Featuring music from some of the most progressive and experimental Black Metal projects, pushing boundries, and leaving listeners with endless questions.
