Description: The sophomore release of experimental death metal band Strigoi is the anticipated Viscera which finds Gregor Mackintosh and Chris Casket catalyzing the continuation of Vallenfyre in an ever darker manner. On their new album the band's horrifying form of death metal incorporates sludge and crust components quite dexterously, and the album's lyrics examine topics of both true and envisioned horror, resulting in something rather bleak and mortifying.
