Wolfmangler - Dwelling in a Dead Raven for the Glory of Crucified Wolves.



Quote:
Once past the initial smirk of discomfort, we find ourselves a party to the hopes, fears and shattered dreams of a loathsome troll destined to live out his days under a haunted bridge awaiting the occasional victim, and singing to himself of how he dreads their piteous cries as he gnaws at their bones. - Julian Cope
Quote:
Doom fans should start getting giddy now – Wolfmangler is the forest-dwelling pseudonym of a certain Smolken, the Polish political émigré probably best known for his work under the Dead Raven Choir moniker. Sometimes connected to the mysterious Jewelled Antler Collective, Smolken spends his time flitting between peculiar full-moon avant-folk and God-bothering black metal evilness to devastating effect.

However, Wolfmangler sees both leanings combined – we have the sentiment of black metal embedded in a thick mire of droning forest sound, which some describe as ‘death folk’. The result is utterly captivating and sounds unlike anything else you have probably ever heard, with distorted double-bass drones, pagan percussion and fairytale flutes bubbling beneath Smolken’s strangled groans. Imagine if Deaf Center were making black metal and had some help from Fonal records’ folky beauty Islaja and you might be able to get an inkling of what Wolfmangler are going for… but you’ll probably have to be sacrificing a lamb at midnight on midsummer’s eve to really achieve the ‘feeling’. This is demonical sound, and in its lack of the usual extremity you might expect from Mayhem, Burzum, Darkthrone and other such Northern European evil folks it becomes even more frightening. This is the sound of your darkest nightmares, and as we all know – darkness is more beautiful than most people give it credit. Don’t be afraid, or you’ll be missing one of the grimmest treats of the year!

Bought this on Saturday... its damn good, definately one of the best metal releases of the year IMO and its been a good year for metal, especially doom!

couldn't find any full album uploads but i found some tracks:

Rise Up Warriors

The First Elegy


enjoy.

^ Would you mind making some worthwhile posts?

"oh thanks" is nothing, no one even gave you anything to thank them for, make an effort.
