Cloak Of Altering - Plague Beasts
2 hawt 4 labels
Mories de Jong, ever the proficient craftsman, is back with his second full length of the year (first being the second Seirom album, which you need in your life): the third installation from his Cloak Of Altering project. Here you'll find the usual bag of tricks that's come to be associated with this ride in Mories' carnival: black metal interspersed with industrial and other nightmarish electronic/ambient touches, painting a picture that's both beautiful and deranged in all its repulsive splendor.
Two tracks streaming here. 5 days, ye hipsters.

Hermética
In late 1994, at the peak of their success, Hermética split up. There are two versions of the story, the one stated by Iorio, who said that the rest of the band was planning to fire him so he decided to leave, and the other stated by the rest of the band, who said that Iorio was kinda dictator and was taking most of the royalties for himself.
