Greg Mackintosh already had one side project from his main gig as the guitarist for Paradise Lost. But he started Strigoi with bassist Chris Casket in hopes of dragging death and doom metal even further afield. Strigoi’s second album pushed their grinding asphyxiations to such extremes, that it produced an abundance of putridity. ‘Bathed in A Black Sun’ includes four unreleased and exclusive songs from the recording sessions for ‘Viscera’, which were mixed and mastered by Kurt Ballou and Brad Boatright. The title track is pure unaltered filth, slimed with sludge riffs and a crusty drum groove. This EP proves that Strigori can mold nasty blackened death doom from anything – even their own remains.
