Regina-area Blackened Doom Metal band Altars of Grief have just released a fantastic new music video for the track "The Plague that Haunts the Darkness". The track is from their debut album "This Shameful Burden" which was released late last summer (2014). This is Altars of Grief's second video, as they previously shot one for the track "Only Our Scars" as well!
Next up for Altars of Grief is the "Of Ash and Dying Light" 10" vinyl split with Nachtterror, to be released on Hypnotic Dirge Records on July 10, followed by a summer of extensive touring across Western Canada with their collaborators Nachtterror and the mighty Numenorean from Calgary!
Following last year's successful debut release, we spoke to Canada's Altars Of Grief to find out a bit more about the band. Giving us the lowdown: co-founder and vocalist Damian.
