Drawing indirect influences from bands such as Neurosis and Swans, Bloodiest create a stunningly powerful wall of sound that becomes trance-inducing and very unpredictable at times.

Country: USA

Record Label: Life is abuse

Total playing time: 53:11

"Yeti is a band that absolutely defies categorization. Their tremendously multifaceted music manages to be dense yet airy and spacious. Complex yet minimalistic. Harsh yet beautiful. Ultramodern yet primitive. It is futuristic yet owes much debt to jazz and post-modern classicists. Imagine an avant-garde, anti-music amalgamation of space rock, jazz, death metal, goth, and chamber music." -In Music We Trust

2. Strangled By Light (15:13)

Suffering Luna - Discography (2010)

“Suffering Luna’s been around since the ’90s and keep resurfacing with a hellish brand of psychedelic hardcore laced with weird polyrhythms, media-soundbite samples, tape loops and hairy walls of guitar that owe to the artier strains of Scando black metal and ’70s Euro kosmiche musik. Their performances are grueling, paranoid affairs that burn their way into trance.”

In addition to their songs from the split 7" with Dystopia and the split 12" with Gasp, this release includes 4 new studio songs and a new live recording with their current lineup.

Tracklist:
1. Sea of drugs
2. Paranoid Delusions
3. Oh, Black Pyramid
4. Live in Studio, Feb 2010
5. Smoking on the Devil's Piss
6. El Pueblo Rev.
7. In Your State of Mind
8. Garden of Reality 2000
9. La Reina del Rosario
