Vorpal Sword

A couple weeks ago, i discovered a wonderfully dark and lo-fi black metal EP from a band called MOONKIGHT.  The "Zhora" EP is quickly becoming one of my favorite releases of the year, so naturally i wanted to find more music from the group.  It appears that MOONKNIGHT is actually a one-man show, courtesy of someone named Horus, and, aside from other MOONKNIGHT releases, i also came across some other music that's even noisier and bleaker, a black metal project called Vorpal Sword.  Listen to the utterly epic "Pain" below, a fuzzy mess of crunched and crackling distortion and shredding, shrieked vocals, that somehow improbably still managed to sound ultimately uplifting.  Go figure.  Check out even more from the man here, courtesy of Rising Beast.
