Gravesend – Methods of Human Disposal (20 Buck Spin)

Gravesend. I immediately thought of the ancient Kent town and wondered why an American band named themselves for this M2 backwater (sorry men or Kent or Kentish men). Apparently, there is a Gravesend in Brooklyn NYC which is the birthplace of Type O… Continue Reading →

Bestial Warfare – Desecrating Goat Assault (Gods Ov War)
