In the Company of Serpents are a doom/sludge band from the US and this is their third album.

This is the third album from US doom band Flesh of the Stars.
How time flies. It was only a couple of years ago that Flesh of the Stars impressed the Hell out of me with their very endearing debut album, Hide. Since then, I’ve somehow missed out on them releasing a second album, and they’re now on their third release, Anhilla. Turns out they’re quite the prolific band. Continue reading “Flesh of the Stars – Anhilla (Review)”
