The Dragging Poison is not an attempt at innovation—it is a statement of devotion. A poisoned chalice offered to those who still revere the cold, untamed essence of Black Metal as it once was: uncompromising, ritualistic, and unburdened by modernity.
This split album may seem like a strange pairing, but it couldn't be more fitting! Both entity's tracks are based around the paranormal and Occult activity which this particular Mountain is notorious for, not only in local folklore but Azgorh's own personal experiences in the house he grew up in on the mountain, as well as many experiences within the forest of the mountain over the years since... and still to this day.

PROFANATICA require no introduction. Cold 'n' alone American black metal before "USBM" became some dumb rallying term, pushing boundaries and "good taste" with vile blasphemy and even-more-vile music, and simply doing whatever the fuck they want, both in their original early '90s guise and their now-intensely-prolific period in the 21st millennium: there's only ever been one true PROFANATICA.
The black metal ultras of WHISKEY RITUAL are back with six roar-along anthems from the gutter. Six punky cover versions to freak out to, bursting with destructive energy and diabolically blackened - all that remains are shards and blood. And the Italian black 'n' rollers also have an important message to deliver: Fuck you!
