Seb Never thought I'd hear something so massive after 30 years of listening to extreme music, from death to grind to black metal... but there we are. This album is a light devourer, a black hole inside a black hole and each note sounds like the death of a planet. It's goddamn unbelievable. Favorite track: Dying Giant.

Odd Radio Circles C R U S H I N G. <3 Favorite track: Dying Giant.

HORSEBACK BATTLE HAMMER PICTURE DISK
Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
EXCLUSIVE picture disk release of Conan's Horseback Battle Hammer (2010 - Throne Records).

4 brutally heavy slabs of Caveman Battle Doom. Thought of by some as a key moment in the resurgence of 'modern day' doom metal.

Picture disks are regular vinyl records but through the middle of the pressed record is a paper sheet with the artwork on. On some picture disks the sound can be less than perfect, but only with certain coloured vinyl and these do not fall into that category.

FIRST 50 ORDERS COME WITH HAND WRITTEN LYRIC SHEET, NOT A PHOTOCOPY.

Ships early November 2019

Limited to 100 here on Big Cartel.

about

Conan, Bongripper & Humanfly April 2013 Tour

Back in April 2012 two bands shared the attention of a devoted crowd, spread across different stages at what was for them their first ever appearances in mainland Europe. Since that date at Roadburn 2012 a mutual appreciation of dusty 12 inch cones, crusty fuzz and glowing EL34s has blossomed and has borne fruit, ladies and Gentlemen we give you this - a UK tour joining together the immovable object - Chicago's Bongripper (US), the irresistible force - Liverpool's Conan and Leeds' own lords Humanfly, three bands that will lay down before you a dead mountain of tone and riffs and soaring, devastating heaviness.

Fly on your wing, like an eagle.

Empezamos lento... pero fuerte, te preparas y apenas estás cargado, vas más rápido que la luz, con una sensación de omnipotencia, pudiendo encarnar a Flash mismo, pero con un deseo ominoso por mostrar quien manda. Algo bueno... simplemente... OMNIPOTENTE, OMNISCIENTE Y OMNIPRESENTE. Una rola perfecta para andar con un cuadro y crico. finísimo. Lord Josh L.
