Spectral Tombs - Veins as Poisoned Streams (2012)


Epic US black metal. Three sprawling, dynamic songs from one of my all-time favorite Portland metal bands. Despite having worked as a booker for a (hellish) six-month period, I've only booked front-to-back maybe three shows in my goddamn life, and one of them was for Spectral Tombs, solely because I thought they were amazing and not enough people knew it.

Track listing:
1. Veins as Poisoned Streams
2. Succumb
3. Supremacy Unfurled

To burn away this plague

More sick Portland metal:
L'Acephale -
Malfeasance (2009)
Symptom -
Caverns of Katabasis (2014)

  1. Hi, big fan of your blog, first time commenting. Thanks for all the awesome and varied music you've shared. My band Elisa Lam just released an album, if you're at all curious it's on youtube https://youtu.be/J1eD9NluXmc. Feel free to share it, or not, either way keep up the great work man. Cheers.

  2. Between you & the usual sources I've rounded up what I could of your favorite Oregonian metal bands, however I wasn't able to locate this one; any chance you could fit in a re-up (even if only temporarily)? Thanks for exposing this scene overall!
