This Toilet Tuesday (2/16/21)
It’s Toilet Tuesday, once again delivering your weekly dose of new tunes. Got a lot on our plate this week, and Hans has picked one out that might tickle your fancy if you’re looking for some interesting black metal. If not (or if it’s simply not enough), there’s a ton of stuff on the way this week, so hit that list and share your listens in the comments.
Spire – Temple of Khronos (Sentient Ruin) [Black Metal]
Listen
Two extremely promising tracks that make me think I should check out their debut. The music effortlessly flows between black metal blasts all the way down prolonged doom parts, almost all the while going hard on trippy reverb and echo effects. The vocal range is fittingly broad, from an agonized howl to snarling proclamations to ominous chanting. If you dug that Grave Gnosis album from a few weeks ago but would like a more polished version, this might be for you. 2/19/21 (Hans)
