Hallow's Victim

On their incredibly dense sophomore effort, Saint Vitus surprisingly injected their agonizingly slow doom metal template with brief, frantic bursts of punk-infused speed. The album features heavily distorted, monolithic guitar riffs and Scott Reagers's desperate, theatrical wails narrating macabre tales of death and the occult. 'Hallow's Victim' is a dark, remarkably raw, and intensely heavy cornerstone of traditional doom.
