News: BLACK VICE / HAUNTER: Invisible Oranges Streaming Split From Texas Black Metal Covens

Austin-based boutique label Red River Family Records is pleased to announce the impending release of spectacularly grim new split from Texas black metal covens Black Vice (Dead to a Dying World) and Haunter, streaming in-full via Invisible Oranges. 

Featuring nearly 30 minutes of agonizing and ritualistic hymns from two bands at the top echelon of second-wave American black metal, the split LP is pressed with three tracks from Black Vice on Side A and two tracks from Haunter on Side B, which will be released on 12" black vinyl July 28. Cover artwork and layout was designed by Stephen Wilson / Unknown Relic, and insert artwork was designed by Antemia Kavillari.

Their debut full length, Rituals of the Anti-Cosmic Doctrine, was released January 2016 on Red River Family Records. Triclavian Nails. Void Hand. Gilded Sickle. Poisoned Thistle. Nocturne Moon.

 

Haunter is the fleeting strangeness of existence, the pangs of consciousness, rejection of the orthodox, and the esoteric mercilessness of memory that envelope you whole dragging one deeper and deeper to the caverns below, beyond the knowledge of mankind. Manifested in San Antonio's DIY underground, the trio permeate and twist the boundaries of black and death.
