Plaguewielder and Diablero are two of many other killer Baltimore crust/metal bands that were/are huge local draws, but never managed to attract much of a following outside of their immediate area. Between two of my bands, I probably played upwards of 10 shows with Plaguewielder, and they destroyed every single time. After Plaguewielder, some of them (not sure how many, I don't know them that well and the internet provides very little info) formed Diablero, who thus far have released a single 7" -- not sure if they're still together. Both bands made/make crusty black metal -- or blackened crust -- with Plaguewielder erring on the sludgier, Dystopia-y side of things. I almost feel like I'm giving away secrets by discussing these bands on my stupid blog, but fuck it, more people should know this stuff.

ReplyDeleteSure, will do later today
DeleteDone, enjoy
DeleteActually, believe it or not, i like Plaguewielder much more than Dystopia, and even a bit more than Diablero....
ReplyDeleteNot Completely original, but this band has something.. magic....that kind of blues that only crust bands can deliver.....
It's a real pity they didn't have realized nothing more.....
These bands are immense, but people loves stuff like Avenged Sevenfold or Trivium....
Bah,
In this Upside Down world, could you find the Diablero 7"????
immense thanxxx
