Line-up:
  • A.Lundr (Panopticon): drums/growl
  • Jeremy Fitzgerald (Samsa): guitar/howl
  • W.Crow (Wheels Within Wheels): guitar/bass
According to A.Lundr, Plainwords broke up last year due to some ideological differences with their bassist and Jeremy having some issues with time due to his job as a tattoo artist. Crow and Lundr decided to keep going by starting a new band, Seidr, who is touring right now with Peregrine and Velnias. There wouldn't ever be a full length by this "supergroup". There is, however, one final demo, which I bring to your attention right now.

In my opinion, the sound of this demo is relatively far from black metal, it's more like epic crust in the vein of Fall Of Efrafa, with elements of post-rock and sludge. I guess it's a tendency among many blackened crust and leftist black metal bands to become more and more influenced by sludge and even doom metal, isn't it?...
Well, enough for today. Now I'm too tired and sleepy, and I need to answer a lot of mail tomorrow. And the last thing for today will be a new interview with Panopticon: read it here.

  3. Great job done with the blog. I'd only just suggest to divide Stalinist black metalist from the "communist black metal" tag, cause they're basically fascists :/
