HOLY CROWS NIGHT

Holy Crows Night presents another earth-shaking and shocking night of crushing riffs and raw chaos with:

BLACK SKULL RITUAL
https://blackskullritual.bandcamp.com

Black Skull Ritual is industrial doom punk metal. Old school metal riffs and ear-damaging, bass-heavy drum machine beats.
The buzz about them:
"a glorious death and roll duo with...occasional hints of Ministry” Metallum Sub Terra
“Godflesh meets Celtic Frost meets Black Flag, meets Gary Numan”
The Shrieks From Below Radio
“...if you're a fan of the likes of early Pitchshifter... give this one a listen”
Soundsoftheunderground
"...amazing industrial crust punk electro-noise doom metal”
Doom Heart

HIKIKOMORI
https://hikikomoriuk.bandcamp.com

UK-based free noise duo making music for shut-ins
What they're all about:
"...tour-de-force spastic noise/free jazz duo, HIKIKOMORI. Unrestrained harsh electronics beating next to spastic drum work, allowing for boundless artistic exploration"
“Hailing from London, UK this free jazz/noise two-piece is a sound to behold. The unique sonic strikes of Naked City, Nachtluft, and the more chaotic side of Lightning Bolt are channeled in their most abstract form. The group is composed of Dean Valentine Smith (drums) & Tom Wilson (noise). You might recognize Wilson's name from the UK's powerhouse noise project THE NIGHT PORTER. This time his frenzied textures of sound wrap around Smith's angular drum skills. Smith, himself from UK alternative-industrial unit THIS BE THE VERSE, brings in a keen eye to swirl around and direct the abstract soundscapes into new territory. Fans of mutated, introspective sound take note as this duo is only displaying the beginning of what’s to come.“

KARGADA
https://kargada.bandcamp.com/album/kargada

Agonizing primitive doom
Here's what people are saying:
"...especially dense sound that is only magnified by the leads that hang in the air (when they appear) and a vocal that seems to almost echo through the dark..."
The Avant-Void
"...a combination of Sludge with some Stoner, a fusion to which they add heartbreaking vocals, very close to what would be done in Black or Depressive Black Metal"
