    Sounds of the Rattle Symptom: Thru a thick summer night, crossing boundaries, crawls this short album from the quite obscure, rather mute and not-as-much-as-you'd-like communicative but still potential Belarussian underground. Drones / swamp ambience / Burroughs' cites included.

  • HALLOWED BUTCHERY

    The Hallowed Butchery/Batillus split 12" is out now. It features my prog-doom epic "Coffin Life" - 14+ minutes of disgusting sludge, droning doom, psychedelic folk, post-black metal, & cosmic rock.

    Only $10 to ruin the rest of your fucking summer.

    Cosmic Regards,
    Ryan/HB
