CLOAK - To Venemous Depths (Ltd White Vinyl) (2LP)

White 2xLP in gatefold sleeve
Limited to 200 copies worldwide!

CLOAK have named DISSECTION, DEEP PURPLE, and FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM as main influences, but their harsh yet groove-fuelled sound has invited critics to draw comparisons with such acts as TRIBULATION, WATAIN, and YOUNG AND IN THE WAY. Their debut full-length, 'To Venomous Depths' is a perfect amalgamation of Nordic black metal with catchy hooks and melodic rock. And while the Americans are not claiming to be reinventing the wheel, their outstanding song-writing is catapulting this album to the top.
