Review: Wolvserpent – Blood Seed by Jayson

Brutal ambient doom metal. That’s how I’d describe the new Wolvserpent. Formerly know as Pussy Gutt, this two person band has been out there touring, building a name for themselves and unfortunately flying completely under my radar until now.

Wolvserpent manage to combine gothic atmosphere, brutal ambient menace and crushing doom riffing in a seamless experience. In the course of two songs averaging about 20 minutes Blood Seed these transitions sound logical. It’s impressive, because so much goth-metal willingly devolves into cliché. Wolvserpent’s sound is devoid of pretense, it’s going to creep you out then crush you in equal measure.

Blood Seed is available in LP format as limited pressing of 5oo on 20 Buck Spin or as a download on iTunes.
