Well fuck me, (not literally). I've heard 2 notes from Pagan Altar and didn't care for either one of em, so I'm a little dark to their history. This particular title was released in 99, so eh.


I'll disqualify them and give the win to Warning if you trad doomsters get too bothered by it. I myself prefer my doom, death laced.

You yourself are guilty of this. You have recommended Doomsword in Doom threads on more than 1 occasion. Do I have to pull up links?!?!


Remember, anything said in carnage royale, can and WILL, be held against you in a court of acai.

Is Burning Witch worth looking into, with their 2CD release of all of their recordings? Or is it just noise, as in a precursor to SunnO)))?

if those aren't random pairings you're the worst faggot on earth for pairing skepticism and thergothon
