About the artist
Vargrav
VARGRAV, the enigmatic black metal project helmed by the elusive musician known simply as "V," has been causing quite a stir in the underground music scene. With a sound that effortlessly blends elements of atmospheric black metal, dark ambient, and dungeon synth, VARGRAV has been captivating listeners with their otherworldly compositions. V's knack for crafting haunting melodies, bone-chilling atmospheres, and skull-crushing riffs is truly unparalleled. Each track feels like a journey into the depths of the abyss, with V's haunting vocals adding an extra layer of intensity to the already dense sonic landscape. But what truly sets VARGRAV apart is their ability to create a sense of unease and foreboding that lingers long after the music has stopped. It's almost as if V has tapped into some ancient, primal force and channeled it through their music, leaving listeners simultaneously exhilarated and terrified. With a discography that includes the critically acclaimed debut album "Netherstorm" and the recently released EP "Reign in Supreme Darkness," VARGRAV shows no signs of slowing down. If you're a fan of atmospheric black metal that pushes the boundaries of the genre, then VARGRAV is a name you need to know. Just make sure to listen with the lights on—it's easy to get lost in the darkness V creates.
