1 UADA See Details for UADA

It's not often that I list a black metal band as a group that could hit the big time, but every so often it happens. Back in the day, we had the exploding careers of Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth, with their somehow more easy to swallow takes on the genre. Now with west coast groups like Deafheaven, it seems to be happening again. UADA blew me away with their very concise album, Devoid of Light, their stunning music video for the title track, and their incredible stage presence. Doesn't hurt that they seem to be pretty nice dudes as well and help organize other shows in the Portland scene. They recently opened for Absu at Black Circle Fest and will be doing the same for the almighty Taake when his tour comes through. Good luck, guys.
