This new sound is full of blast beats, crushing riffs, and the harshest vocals Nergal (yeah, laugh at his name) has ever recorded.
Among specific topics are African Bushman mythology, the European dragon slayer, Hermes, Persian magi, Nergal from Sumaria and Babylon, tail types, tale types, and William Tell.
