This record is sick and weird, really hits the spot. Thanks. Never heard of it before but checked it out because of the saturnalia temple connection. I love that Aion of Drakon lp but never bothered listening to anything else by them, I think cause that one left me pretty satisfied and I'm not a big doom/stoner head. Any other standouts in their catalog that you'd recommend giving a spin?
ReplyDeleteI actually haven't listened to anything past Aion of Drakon either, just know that they're a band people care about so it'd be worth mentioning the connection.
DeleteWorth it for track 3 alone.
