HELTER SKELTER PRODUCTIONS is proud to present GRAVEN DAGGER's striking debut album, Graven Dagger, on LP.
Hailing from the rising Argentinian stoner scene - from which labelmates MEPHISTOFELES, FULANNO, SAHARA, THE CROOKED WHISPERS, and SERPENT COBRA sprang - GRAVEN DAGGER is amazingly the work of one, mysterious individual. And while surely one could get stoned to his self-titled debut album, GRAVEN DAGGER the entity instead creates a dusky 'n' dusted blend of garage rock, proto-metal, private-press prog, and even a bit of spooky Spaghetti Western - and all instrumental. It's certainly a beguiling-yet-bewitching sound, totally like AND unlike Graven Dagger's cool-as-fuck cover art. And across its quick-hitting half-hour runtime, the album's eight tracks display an amazing wealth of variety, each one as different as the last, but each one straight outta the garage and dungeon simultaneously. Not for nothing are there titles like "Blues From the Black Lagoon," "Skull Citadel," "Dungeonist," and "By Sword and Witchery" here: GRAVEN DAGGER give you a blacklit, slow-burn soundtrack for whatever recreation you wanna pursue!
