After forming in 2007 and their ensuing years of touring, festival appearances, and obscure limited releases (like their now infamous 2008 rehearsal demo and 2010’s ‘V: A Sepulchur to Swalow the Sea<\/strong>‘ 7″, which Brooklyn Vegan hailed as “blastingly powerful”), Richmond, VA’s BASTARD SAPLING<\/strong> have finally announced the upcoming release of their debut full-length. Entitled ‘Dragged From Our Restless Trance’<\/strong> and slated for an October 23rd <\/strong>release via longtime supporters Forcefield Records<\/strong>, the album offers four songs and forthy minutes’ worth of cold, atmospheric, adventurous black metal. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

BASTARD SAPLING <\/strong>straddle the divide between the best moments of\u00a0Immortal, Bathory,<\/strong> and vintage Ulver, <\/strong>taking cues from old-school Darkthrone<\/strong> and recalling the majestic atmosphere of Drudkh<\/strong> and Hate Forest<\/strong>,<\/span> and augmented by an appealingly raw but listenable production and a DIY-or-die ethos. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The record will be limited to 500 copies on marbled obsidian black & cocaine white vinyl, packaged as a gatefold LP with insert and patch included. The first 100 preorders will come with an exclusive backpatch, courtesy of Rainbath Visual.<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
