release notes:
Virginia's Night Hag returns from the shadows with Great Dismal Darkness,
the band's first full-length since 2022's Phantasmal Scourge and the
first release as a four piece
Across seven towering slabs of death-doom, Great Dismal Darkness sinks
deeper into suffocating atmosphere, glue-thick riffs, cavernous growls,
and oozing misery. Lumbering dirges, splattering slow-motion double-kick
thunder, and walls of rotten distortion create Night Hag's heaviest,
filthiest, and most oppressive work to date.
Since forming in 2010, the band has steadily refined their rancid vision
through the Insemination Rites of the Succubus EP, split LPs with Cryptic
Brood and Burial, and Phantasmal Scourge. Great Dismal Darkness pushes
that evolution further, embracing a slower, thicker, and more suffocating
approach that's equal parts primitive death metal, fetid doom, and
swamp-born sludge
No gimmicks, no polish. Just seven tracks of crawling decomposition,
oppressive atmosphere, and unrelenting sonic filth.
Great Dismal Darkness is Night Hag at their most focused, foulest, and
most devastating-a monument to decay built one crushing riff at a time.
Not to be confused with other bands with same name.
