MONARCH! - 'Dead Men Tell No Tales' 2 x CD (Crucial Blast)
A colossal collection of two full length albums, previously released on vinyl only, plus unreleased songs exclusive to this release. French act Monarch! unleash a slow motion avalanche of impossibly glacial, blackened sludge and hypnotic feedback, each song a series of epic tarpit riffage, stretched out eternally over lumbering drums and cavernous rumbles. Over these yawning expanses of black void appears the demonic, throat-shredding shrieks and ghostly singing of Emilie, whose petite appearance belies one of the harshest throats in the underground Doom spectrum. Presented in an offset-printed, gatefold digifile with all new artwork. North American edition.
