Circle the Wagons
For as much fuss is made over the worth (or goat forbid, "kvlt" value) of one DARKTHRONE album over another, especially those spanning the last few years, one would think that the music in question is of the avant-garde variety. Hell, it's not even experimental! Any way you slice, it is metal and th...May 9, 2010
