about

Crypt of the Wizard is proud to present Peace Vaults - I & II on vinyl and digital formats.

New blood from the Viennese gutters. Amidst the vile and hostile ravines of sooted stone and waste filled waters is a glade to be found. Peace Vaults erect four pillars of crude and stoic Black Metal, guided by luring vocals and synth melodies, which shimmer like ominously kaleidoscopic light through cracks in the walls of rat filled sewers.

Hissing through cracked and blackened feedback Peace Vaults produce jangly off-kilter rhythms, awash with raw metal energy and diffuse post punk lethargy. Frantically pulling chaotic drum patterns and howling guitar leads into rhythmic structure until, wild, they pull themselves apart again.
This compilation of the band's two demo tapes rightly now presented on vinyl marks the beginning of an ongoing union between Peace Vaults and Crypt of the Wizard with new material due in the not so distant future.

Fans of Slutet, Sonic Youth, Weathered Crest and the whole Linz scene will find in Peace Vaults another band over which to obsess.

Thét Älëf continues to weave his totally idiosyncratic spell, glamouring you into a sonic world that does not sound like anyone else. A world of shadows and joy, of might and tiny shufflings, of lanterns in the dark, seeking and strange. Hard to pick a favorite track, but the quiet melody of the first, like a spider edging along a leaf or a fairy treading quietly in a moonlit marshland, gave me chills. pinkytheent

Kentucky
by Panopticon

supported by 5 fans who also own “I & II”

La mine, c'est le lieu qui met le plus en exergue les disparités sociales : d'un côté ils sont des milliers à descendre dans les entrailles de la terre, de l'autre une poignée s'élève socialement ; d'un côté ils meurent par centaines sous l'effet des coups de grisou, de l'autre ils consolident leurs richesses. Cette dualité, elle traverse aussi Kentucky : d'un côté le black metal atmosphérique asphyxiant, de l'autre l'americana et le folklore héroïque. Panopticon est dans la lutte permanente !

The first four Krallice in order are essential usbm releases... usually bands with long tracks get tiring, but with Krallice it's always fresh. Plus the new remaster jobs give them all new life. ribsgibson
