BAND Karloff

ALBUM THE APPEARING

LABEL Dying Victims Productions

OUT July 30th, 2021

OUR RATING 80/100

KARLOFF’s debut album, entitled “The Appearing”, will be available on July 30th on CD, music cassette and vinyl LP formats via DYING VICTIM PRODUCTIONS.

Hailing from Germany, KARLOFF was formed in 2018 as a means for erstwhile Graveyard Ghoul member Tom Horrified to blow off some punk-oriented steam with a couple close comrades.

Describing their sound as “raw obscure punk turns into blackness,” it didn’t take long for the band to record their first recording, Demo ’18, but it was the following Raw Nights mini-album a year later where KARLOFF kicked into high gear.

The trademarks of this band clear: punky vibes in a dark environment, shorty- based tracks, direct and no frills. Among others, somethin’ doom elements in SUPERIOR PRESENCE OF CRUELTY.
