Hostile Architecture [LP], Ashenspire, Vinyl

Avantgarde Black Metal from Scotland, taking as much influence from the harsh, angular textures of Altar of Plagues 'Teethed Glory and Injury" as Colin Stetson's hypnotic saxophone and Ed Scissor/Lamplighter's bleak noir-hop soundscapes, the album sees Ashenspire leaning further into Avant-garde jazz tendencies and black metal dissonance in a more full realisation of their own sprechstimme.
