Hoping this is not the case. Their Apparitions and Empty space Mediation records were amazing releases…..

It’s not often you go to a local show and just floored at how good the band is. Moved to Raleigh 2 years ago from Dallas and was initially down with the scene. Time and patience shows that there is a small but thriving scene and Mo’ynoq is one of the best. Great show at Moondog Meadery last night and hope to see them again in January. Support these guys!!

It’s like an old friend that have not spoken to in years, but when you do, you pick up right where you left off. Another year, another Darkthrone record. The stars have aligned yet again…..

Stoked for these guys. Incredible musicians and overall good guys. Every release is heavy, thought provoking and smashes you in the teeth. Support!!

The West Virginia metal band's sound encompasses everything from classical guitar, traditional Native American instrumentation, and Appalachian folk music to melodic, atmospheric black metal.

Left this out of the best of 2021 list. This was in error. Excellent death doom in the vein of disembowlment and lycus but slightly more melodic interludes. Support!!
