The logo that’s no doubt been haunting you for the past three days is by none other than Hobart, Tasmanian black metal band Striborg (answer “A” for those of you playing at home). The group is really one-man show made up of Sin Nanna, whose fascination with the darkness is only surpassed by his ability to make primitive, droning, sometimes pedestrian low-fi metal sound positively magical. Striborg’s new album, Nefaria, comes out tomorrow, but his first disc, 2006’s, Embittered Darkness/Isles de Morts, is equally enthralling, combining the best of Darkthrone and early Bathory with something that can only be found in a land down under - and we’re not talking about Tasmania. Evil awaits.
