Paleowolf is the sort of music project that comes along once in a blue moon, and as much as Facebook annoys me a lot of the time, I have to thank it for introducing me to this beautiful, transcendental endeavour. During my first read thorough of the interview you're about the encounter, my smile threatened… Continue reading Interview : Paleowolf
After only a few minutes listening, I knew that Greek epic pagan black metal band Macabre Omen would be my sound of the day.
