VETALA - Satanic Morbid Metal - LP

Hand-numbered ___/77

Originally released back in 2010, when the raw Portuguese black metal scene was a heavily guarded secret only discovered by the most depraved, Satanic Morbid Metal indeed accomplished its title and then some: although continuing the dark, disgusting work laid down by Black Circle forerunners Irae and Mons Veneris, VETALA here brazenly unveiled an exquisitely twisted vision of black metal, clanging and crazed and almost accidentally avant-garde yet with a truly unique and malformed melodicism that nevertheless had those who had the good fortune to hear it questioning the band's very sanity.
