Kansas City's mightiest heroes unite to bring you all a hefty serving of black metal sorcery. Jotanar (Dan Johnson),  Strigoi (Drew Frerking), Ghargoyle (Nolan Weber), and Beithir (Clinton Stanaland) recently formed KC supergroup Varlok, and their debut album is upon us. Nefarious Arts of the Necromage is a whirlwind of an album sure to satiate the need of any burgeoning black metal fan or even the most seasoned Scandinavian diehards. This album is a blizzard of melodies, riffs, and one-footed blast beats. Hidden within some of the tracks is an inherent thrashiness that is unmistakably heavy. Your neck will pay the morning after the first listen. And by "The Eleventh Moon", no one is safe. All will pledge their souls. May the winds be ever in your favor. All hail the mighty Varlok.
