The Barrens

Gentlemen adventurers Patrick Bruss & Brynjar Helgetun embarked on an investigative journey into the fetid, abandoned remains of the Crypts of Lieberkuhn where they claim they channeled & recorded a Pulp Horror Metal album using "...strange & cursed equipment that was alive." Three years later they emerged with these cylinders. Occult investigator Luther Heggs has discredited their claims, but the strange nature of the recordings, the monster voices, melodies, & echoed curses contained therein remain largely unexplained. Here for the first time all materials have been made available to the curious public. Lyrics of "Song of a Mad Minstrel" are quotes from the poem by Robert E. Howard. No pitch-shifting vocal effects used in this performance. Track 12 is a Bonus Track
