WEREWOLF RECORDS is proud to present the first (and final) album from Finland's GRIEVE, Funeral. At was but 2020 when GRIEVE emerged from the darkness with their self-titled debut EP. Although otherwise meant to exist strictly in that darkness, it was soon discerned that the band included veritable Finnish black metal royalty within its ranks. Nevertheless, the swiftly uncompromising nature of Grieve was felt: Northern Black Metal Exclusively From the 1990s. No more, no less, no progression, no fun.
The work of one selfsame Häxär, concurrently of Ernte, HÄXÄR are a lone torch of Swiss black metal. Now, after two albums in as many years, HÄXÄR present their third album of turn-of-the-millennium nastiness: Teufelskult. Ripped raw and ripping, Teufelskult possesses that dead-but-alive electricity that so earmarked many a Moonfog release as Y2K approached.
