Almost halfway into February and I’d say we’re rollin’ by this point AND we’ve had some killer albums since the calendar flipped. If you disagree I literally have no idea where your ears have been, there’s been something for everyone just in the past handful of weeks and now we have several more to peruse… Darkspace kicks things off with some atmospheric black metal and Farsot backs them up with their brand of the black arts. Next up is Ihsahn with what seems to be another slappin’ entry from his camp, and Barren Womb gets the noise rock job DONE! Good stuff here and several more hanging out in the list that follows so go check them out and we’ll see you here throughout the week.
