Void of Light – Enshroud (2023), Asymmetries (2026)

Well babes*, looks like the week’s about halfway over. I’m already kinda dragging my feet on getting any actual work done, looking ahead in the calendar to another weekend coming up soon.

Let’s talk about some music to pass the time, what do you say?

Today I’ve got two releases to share with you, from a band whose name means Darkness (although no word on whether they believe in a thing called love).

No, this Glaswegian post-metal ensemble really grabbed me by the ears when Trepanation released their sophomore EP three years ago, and they’ve finally followed with their first-ever full-length LP, which came out just a few days ago. Enjoy!

Today is going to be Ommadon day. All day long. And that’s really not an exaggeration: you’re going to need all day to plow through the massive heap of noise this Glaswegian duo (featuring David Tobin, guitars, and Ewan Mackenzie, drums/keyboards) has forged together over the past four years!

Fans of the two-minute pop ditty should probably just quit reading right here. But if you’ve ever listened to Ufomammut or Kongh and thought to yourself, “Wow this is great but I really wish all of the songs were way longer and way slower,” well… this just may be your lucky day!

Unkirk.burial (Tartarus Records, 31 March 2017)

 

Hello,

There are a lot of new releases coming up.

Because of this I’m offering a 30% discount on all orders to make more space at Tartarus HQ.

This includes all of our latest titles and distro items.

Visit tartarusrecords.com and use the code KEEPINGITREEL before checking out to apply the discount.

This discount ends on Saturday June 10th.

Oh, and we priced all of our shirt designs down to 9 euros for the time being 🙂

 
Thus reads the press release that just came from Tartarus Records this week. Their sale of 30% off runs through TOMORROW, so we wanted to make sure you nice people heard about this and had the chance to take advantage of it. And if you need a suggestion of where to start shopping (aside from previous Tartarus releases we’ve already discussed), might I suggest this megalithic wall of noise from Scottish dirge-drone duo Unkirk?
