Black Tusk - Passage Through Purgatory CD+DVD (Hyperrealist)

$9.99

Debut full length LP/CD from Savannah’s swamp metal trio, BlackTusk. With a triple vocal attack and a sound alternating between sludgy, heavy southern rock tinged crust and breakneck blasts harkening back to the skaterock crossover bands of the 80s, the tusk contribute their own take on the full bore, brutal sound Savannah bands are known for. Produced by Phillip Cope (Kylesa). Cover art by John Baizley. BlackTusk west coast and UK tours in ’08. CD has an extra track and bonus DVD.
