Hold on…I’m looking for my skin, it was just peeled off by 33 minutes of apocalyptic doom that I have had on repeat for a while now. To be more specific, I have been listening to the new split by New York’s Batillus and Australia’s Whitehorse, which will be released via the German label Vendetta Records. Batillus wrecks shop with their two songs, which have multiple layers of decay surrounded by a dystopic atmosphere. Whitehorse drills a hole in your skull with the pounding dirge that starts to crack away at your bones. Anyone reading this is more than fucking lucky, because CVLT Nation is streaming the whole release below, so you can be your own judge and kill some brain cells in the process. It get sicker – Batillus & Whitehorse will be touring together this summer starting at the end of this month – peep the the tour dates after the jump! Also, stay tuned for a Sonic Cathedrals curated by Batillus, plus a special Whitehorse interview about their upcoming U.S.A tour. Fuck the dumb shit…now BLAST this stream beyond HEAVY!!!….PRE-ORDER HERE…
