Lycus

Another great Demo that arrived this year brought into this wretched World by the doom/sludge band Lycus. Lycus come from Oakland, California, and share a member in common with the hyped black metal outfit, Deafheaven. This though, is an altogether different beast. Lycus have created one of the most exciting Demo’s I’ve heard this year. Huge and laden with sorrow, this is a demo to propel the band into many end of year lists and beyond. Three beautifully creative and sorrowful songs that truly will hook any fan of good old fashioned sludge, funeral doom. Just plain awesome. This is heavy. This is slow. This is doom.
