FREE DL: Striborg’s “Part III”


Despite its name, Striborg is from the United States and has released a new album called Spiritual Deprivation, some gloomy black metal that is being described like this:
Spiritual Deprivation” represents a left turn into the alter ego of Sin-Nanna’s main project Striborg. Consisting of six total tracks, the first five are an exploration into the world of ambient darkness while the sixth is an audial onslaught of nearly a half hour of power electronics. Spiritual Deprivation is not the new Striborg sound merely a side step of artist expression.”
