WOLD – BADB (CRUCIAL BLAST)

DISTRO ITEM
from - Crucial Blast
(CD)

Originally released on cassette in 2004 in a limited edition of 100 copies, Badb is one of the earliest releases from the Saskatchewan-based black metal/noise duo Wold. The nine tracks featured here revolve around the mythology of the war goddess, the specter of doom that lurks at the edge of the battlefield, and begins at the heart of a roiling black blizzard and proceeds through a charred nightmare soundscape of icy corroded black metal riffs, fractured blasting, melancholic melodies blurred and smeared into malevolent new shapes, and scathing distorted witch-screams ripping through the blackness, all doused and drowned in Merzbowian levels of feedback and distortion abuse. Now presented on Cd for the first time, this early swarm of Wold's psychotropic black metal/noise terror comes with all-new artwork from Pippi Zornoza.

This reissue of Wold's crucial early full length is one of the most extreme releases from Crucial Blast this year, and a stunning blast of black noise metal highly recommended to devotees of extreme distorted evil.

Strange and lovely!
