The unholy intersection of psych rock, doom and retro heavy metal. Sing praise to Lucifer.

Occult Rock originated thanks to the likes of Black Sabbath and Coven in the late 60s/early 70s who combined psychedelic rock with occult themes.

In recent times there has been a revival movement of such sounds, fronted by bands such as Ghost, Jex Thoth, Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats, The Devils Blood, Blood Ceremony and many more. Trad doom and retro-metal is closely tied to this scene and is welcome here.

Just a heads up, beware the "band" Acolytes of Sorath

I've seen this person try to post on this subreddit at least twice today, advertising themselves to be a "garage band trio" based out of Arizona or California or something. In reality, their ENTIRE ALBUM they're grifting is just the band Jess and the Ancient Ones pitched shifted down. They have a soundcloud that can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/sorathrocks666 I already reported them to Bandcamp but I am not sure how to do it on Soundcloud! Help me remove these fraudulent tracks from the internet

Is crumblingtomb legit ? They don't look like they are

EDIT : their website still sucks, BUT I received all items I've ordered, so my doubts are cleared now

I'd like you guys opinions (or even better, experience) with www.crumblingtomb.com

All the item descriptions are the same, its a sloppy job. Does't pass the smell test to me e.g.

https://www.crumblingtomb.com/product-page/cd-into-space-and-out-of-reach

https://www.crumblingtomb.com/product-page/cd-preparing-lucifers-arrival

All items, the CMS readme. I wanted some Assassination CDs.

experiences, thoughts ?
