Vakna-Sworn of Sorrow

Vakna is a three man band from Indonesia and Sworn of Sorrow is threir second release, a cassette released by Jakarta based Doombringer Records. The Amebix logo and even the artwork will mislead you because Vakna is not a crust/metallic crust/black metal band but rather a Discharge/Wolfpack hybrid bringing also infuences from Japanese and South American scene and all these under a gloomy surface and a veil of darkness that add a hint of black metal increased by the cover artwork. Running time is 19 minutes of D-beat hardcore crust in eight songs including a cover of punk veterans Peace Or Annihilation, delivered through the crunchy guitar, sinister vocals and the usual D-beat drumming. The cassette is available from DoombringerRevenge Records,etc, also available for streaming in bandcamp
