Apocalypse Sun

There is something special about this Colorado black metal outfit. You can hear it from the opening notes of "I am I" to the fading ring of "Fount of Nighted God-head" from NIGHTBRINGER's "Apocalypse Sun". It is over an hour's worth of USBM and Scandinavian black metal blending that is conventional...
