Vorga are one of the most promising new black metal bands, and 'Radiant Gloom' is a beautiful debut that hints at truly great things to come.
Favorite track: Argil.

You like black metal, you like this.
Vorga come out swinging with brass knuckles – a musical misanthropy pummeling at a volatile pace. Paired with some stellar artwork and a great logo, this debut EP is a very promising sign for the future of Vorga and the black metal genre. Favorite track: Divine.

"This is precisely the type of Black Metal I love. Not everything flies out of the speakers at 100 mph and with echoes of early Bathory, no higher praise is necessary. I'm VERY impressed with Vorga and "Radiant Gloom". Beautiful artwork too!"

Black metal (or maybe better: blackened thrash) based on science fiction is pretty rare. This band consists of great musicians and deserves much more promotion than it gets now; unknown means per definition unloved, quite a pity.
