SATAN’S DOZEN is
THE SLUDGELORD’s attempt to present the very best music the
underground scene has to offer and whilst we’d love to review every band
submission we receive, not to mention the countless recommendations you
send our way, in practical terms that is just not possible. Therefore
because we don’t want killer music to pass you by, each and every month our
member of the Russian chapeter Andrei Moose
painstakingly sifts through the music labelled killer riffs” and chooses 13 of the best new albums released via
bandcamp and bundles them together into the mightiest riff sandwich.
Whilst
all the albums we have included below are top tier stuff, we have compiled them
into a chart on a sliding scale of 13-1.
So we hope you dig our selections for January 2018 and enjoy 13 Unearthly Hymns Unearthed.
These
bands need more exposure, so go “like” “share” and “follow” their pages, but
most of all enjoy some of the best music the underground has to
offer. THE
SLUDGELORD most sincerely approves. Now, go heavy
or go home.
