About This Item
2010 debut album from the NYC-based Metal outfit. Since their formation in 2007, Castevet has built quite a reputation within the underground scene. Delivering on the promise of their vicious live show, the trio's 2009 single 'Stones/Salts' was a virulent mix of Post-Hardcore and dissonant Black Metal that sold out immediately. Mounds of Ash is Castevet's debut full-length. Recorded at the Thousand Caves Studios with Colin Marston, this punishing offering expands on their prior output in all respects-taking influence from the avant-garde elements of mid '90 's Norwegian Black Metal bands like Ved Buens Ende and Fleurety, and classic early 90 's Metalcore groups like Rorschach and Deadguy. The album solidifies Castevet's standing as one of New York's most promising Metal bands alongside like-minded acts Krallice and Liturgy. Album Tracks 1. Red Star Sans Chastity 2. Mounds of Ash 3.
