American Black Metal - Tumblr Posts

Chicago, Illinois band FIN released this roaring black metal album a few years ago, and if you slept on it, well, you missed out. This band is intense, all wailing riffs and warlike battery.

If raw black metal is your thing, give this album a spin.

The first track, Manias, is probably my favorite, based mostly on the riff. It's a high pitched whine that's almost too much, yet is definitely just enough, and it will get stuck in my head for days.

I was lucky enough to see them perform live at Red River Family Fest III, and they had the whole crowd moving.

Hrukjan/Elegiac

Two book releases from the man behind Sacrificial Sounds Records/Elegiac.

One contains lyrics, essays, and artwork regarding his Elegiac solo project.

The other is a guidebook to runes- their meanings, how to use them, etc.

Both are available via Amazon:
