PUSSYGUTT - 'She Hid Behind Her Veil..' CD (20 Buck Spin)
Multi-instrumentalists Brittany McConnell Blake Green reside in the rural landscape outside of Boise, Idaho, where they create their dark, foreboding sounds away from the chaos of America’s large cities. "She Hid Behind Her Veil…", is comprised of a single track over 45 minutes in length. The sound occupies a dense space where the heavy, metallic drone sound of Black Boned Angel intersects with the minimalist string arrangements of Phillip Glass and the more ambient doom tendencies of Japan’s Corrupted. With its use of violin textures, the album sounds as much like a classical movement as an art-doom release. Draped in a cloak of gothic black doom ambiance and eerie, unsettling moods, "She Hid Behind Her Veil…" is an apparition of ghostly vision from one of America’s more isolated environments. Digipak. Pussygut changed their name to Wolvserpent in 2010.
WOLVSERPENT - 'Gathering Strengths / Blood Seed' 2 x CD (Crucial Blast)
Previously known as Pussygutt, the duo of blackened psych-drone metallers from Boise, Idaho changed their name to the much more ominous sounding Wolvserpent in 2010. The name is the really the only thing that changed, as the occult hypno-doom and grim, folk-stained nightmares that populated their previous albums are all intact here. This release collects both the "Gathering Strengths: LP (Olde English Spelling Bee) and "Blood Seed" LP (20 Buck Spin), both of which were previously available only on limited edition vinyl. The material has been remastered for this format, and comes in an 8-panel digipak that features both the original album artwork as well as new imagery that further compliments Wolvserpent's avant-garde witch-sludge.
