Hear It Now: Wolvhammer "The Gleaming"
ALBUMThe Obsidian Plains (Profound Lore Records)
SOUND Minneapolis-based extreme metallers Wolvhammer come out swinging on their second album, The Obsidian Plains. The band, which now includes ex-Nachtmystium axman Jeff Wilson sharing six-string duties with Andy Schoengrund, has clearly refined its grim approach, elevating its crusty, blackened, doom-punk sound to the next level.
