Shout out to the the homies in STAIN outta Finland.
Punishing, crushing, slow and grueling death sludge. They create a wall of sound that is brutally aggressive and atmospheric, with slow and abrasive pacing riffs, nihlistic vocals, heavy toned low end bass, creating a soundscape that is like a descent into unrelenting violence, carnage and madness.
There really, REALLY needs to be way more buzz around this band.
If you f**k with bands like Primitive Man, Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean, Dragged into sunlight, Hell, Coffinworm, Miserably Ever After, Body Void, Khanate, Thou, Unearthly Trance, Lord Mantis and Gnaw their Tongues...
You need to dig into Stain. I cannot insist enough that everyone follows and supports this band.

BPT had the privilege of working with these guys a few years back, with their second EP "Savage" being one of earliest Bastard Premonition Tapes cassette releases and is still one of my favorites.
I am hopeful that Bastard Premonition will have the opportunity to work with these dudes again sometime in the future for another US release.
🤞💀🤘
