Krakathoa have arrived, and they brought several sackfuls of metal terror. There are some bands you hear and forget, some stay with you forever. This is the latter, and they will actually do it if you live in Sweden. If you didn’t feel the exit part of your digestive system cinch with Below the Carcass, worry not. Here comes their latest single, Diamond Coma.
Bone crushing death metal from Sweden-Krakathoa
Honest to god, I don’t know what a diamond coma is. Seeing the number of reflections a diamond gives, I don’t think I’d like to be in one. I however, would like to be in the midst of Krakathoa performing this song live, for it is sick. The meaty riff hangs like the weight of your dreams above your head, and it is a sucker punch for people. People who would have just heard Lavender Haze by Tay-Tay. However, this band is bringing the thunder like a cannonball, and you can hear it in the vocals as well. If the Large Hadron Collider was a sewage system, that’s how guttural the sound intake is. The band chases much more defined tones than that fuzzy lint some bands call distortion. This is where chaos is birthed, and you better enjoy that invite.
Apologetic Apathetic is their other single you should check out, if you liked this. I’m quite sure if you clicked the title, you liked the song, and you now want to know more about Krakathoa. Watch out for their EP to be released in January. Until then, windows shut, tears wiped-now enjoy the resounding gravity this planet of a band carries:

Self professed metalhead, moderately well read. If the music has soul, it's whole to me. The fact that my bio could have ended on a rhyme and doesn't should tell you a lot about my personality.
