Carrion Vael Slay Utterly Vinyl

"'Slay Utterly' is our 3rd release on Unique Leader Records, and it's our best work to date. The stories told within these songs mimic the chaos that is each individual song. It's brutal, it's fast, and its moments of reprieve are relatively short lived, before the barbarism starts all over again."On first single "19(fucking)78", the band adds: "To live in California during the 1970's was to live within a cloud of terror cast by The Hillside Stranglers. The details about the abductions, torture, and public disposal of bodies upon the hillsides of southern California were gruesome and unsettling, and with each news report, a darkness seeped into the aspect of everyday life for citizens of the Golden State. The Captures of Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono offered some closure, but the scars remained."The Hillside Stranglers case became a chilling reminder of the capacity for human cruelty, and forced Californians to confront the darkest aspects of their reality. '19(fucking)78' dives into the most brutal aspects of this case and holds nothing back in the process."
