Underground flowing black metal band Infamous, who combines the atmospheric torrential melody styles of Graveland with the old world melodies of Southern European black metal, joining with doom-black metal band Cromlech, has announced plans to release Hammer of Triumph, an EP with one song by each band.

We look forward to more details on the work of these vital bands. Infamous carries the torch forward of old school black metal without having to rely on the tropes of the old school, and has launched a spate of similarly-influenced projects. Cromlech is attempting to find its own voice doing something similar for north America. As false metal dies, the underground rises again.
