Draugwath
Dwellers of the cursed forest
[independent/demo 95]


This is my fucking cup of tea. I've heard a little bit about this band, but have had trouble grabbing any of their releases. Luckily someone did all the work for me, and I just received their two demos (the newer one is self titled it seems) today. And oh my, they are quite the little demos.

Who knows the story behind this band, but they are quite good at doing simple, evil, and VERY raw black metal tunes. Incredibly raw actually, and very, very simple. The vocals are not too far off from "THunger" Darkthrone, since they have that raw, dripping raunchy feel to them. And the music is of course not too far off from that album as well.

Ok, it's not so raw that you can't hear anything. But it's harsh, yet still well planned out. There's even some synth work here and there to add a little "spice". I bet these bastards drink loads of vodka and piss on Lenin's tomb, yelling bloody murder, before rushing off to band practice...

But Anyways: OOhhhhh cold, evil, hateful, dirty. Black metal! This is fucking great! The packaging is dark and simple with band photos (eviiilll), a comedic comment about the production/sound, glossy paper and some other minor info. This is on the wonderfully named label "Hungry AK-47". A nice photo of an AK-47 is their logo >:) The releases are numbered "Clip01-03".

Black metal moves on oh joy of all joys. How truly refreshing...
