VOUNA "Atropos" 2xLP comes in a gatefold jacket with gold printing, a designed inner sleeve, and a download card.  This is the black vinyl edition.

VOUNA is the project of multi-instrumentalist and composer Yianna Bekris. With her second full-length album “Atropos”, she unveils a towering and singular doom metal wonder in a unique visioning reminiscent of My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost, and Evoken. Upon the thick foundation of doom, multiple musical textures intertwine into her sound: atmospheric black metal, dungeon synth, darkwave, film scores, and rebetiko. It is through these woven sonic tapestries that Bekris creates vivid atmospheres expressing the myriad emotions surrounding death, mourning, and suicidal ideation. “Atropos”, named for the Greek fate who cut the thread of life thus determining the final fate for mortals, not only conveys the inevitability of death, but also explores its contrasting and dynamic nature through immersive compositions representing despair, loneliness, anxiety, peace, and dignity.

Following the 2019 release of their comeback album The Veil of Darkness, the cursed phalanx is now delivering it's new offering. Consisting of 11 tracks, of the most brutally savage, tempestuous and virulent Black Metal music.
In creeping dimness, the band's core has birthed their most aggressive body of work, yet. Utterly and undeniably compelling, hard-hitting riffs and heinous vocals. You deserve this punishment, may your ordeal be painful.

ROAD TO THE OCTAGON was celebrating the band's 20th anniversary in 2010, Impaled Nazarene most definitely is one band in the extreme metal genre that has NOT wimped out (or split-up and done a pathetic reunion).
No, these guys have been the driving force of extreme metal from Finland and they keep raging with a vengeance.
ROAD TO THE OCTAGON is 11th studio album from these Nuclear metal masters and contains 13 songs pure in-your-face hate-filled metal. Recorded at City Lights studio and mixed at Studio Fungus by Max Kostermaa, ROAD TO THE OCTAGON has a sound like a tank rolling over warzone!
Absolutely no compromise! If you do not know Impaled Nazarene, then you don't know shit!
