Khanate

To think that only
moments in to the first song. er, static leak, I was beginning to get
irritated. and then the "music" starts! NYC locals bring
together a
number of doom influences notably Burning Witch and five songs of
suffering and sadness in the finest St. Vitus twisted tradition. And
while nothing is clearly presented I'm beginning to see why no words
were included in the cover booklet-nothing, not even close, though I'm
having a tough enough time deciphering the gaseous elements floating
around the center spread. But words, a key element to most, take on
new significance and in fact I think they've invented an whole new
language that lies somewhere between Latin and Devil-speak. Khanate's
definitely an acquired taste that fans of Hard-Core Black and Doom will
identify with and that's a truly scary thought from where I sit. So sit
down and gather round the fire and let the slow torture consume every
last fiber of your being as you prepare to meet your maker.
