{"product_id":"winter-into-darkness-12","title":"Winter: Into Darkness 12\"","description":"\u003cp\u003ePerpetually out of print, much sought after and universally worshipped amongst those in the know, Winter's \"Into Darkness\" was a game-changing classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eFormed in New York circa 1988, Winter played slow, deep and hard nuclear doom with a crust punk rawness, that came across like Hellhammer jamming with Amebix. Their penchant for mammoth sized and funeral-paced, wasteland droning has become a touchstone reference for bands across the whole spectrum of underground metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eTheir pre-internet infamy led to Winter demos being tape- traded in hallowed adoration by fans and bands alike, gaining notable fans such as Fenriz from Darkthrone. Deserving of their special place in the pantheon of one-off classic albums, the Swans-like noise and down-tuned Earth-like riffs of \"Into Darkness\" went on to spawn countless doom and sludge bands, being an influence for an entire doomed generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Winter come-back show at Roadburn Festival in 2011 was massively anticipated and held a captivated audience. Packing out one of The Netherlands largest stages, that particular Winter show, after many years in obscurity is a rare event that is still highly regarded today. The band is a rare jewel amongst collectors, and audiences alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\"Into Darkness\" was a gateway drug to the dark depths of sludge metal, and now awaits a whole new throng of acolytes who bow down before the throne of heavy doom. Svart Records is proud to re-release it once more, putting the album back in print for a new generation of listeners. Eternal Winter awaits!\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: Svart Records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Type: 12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Svart Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45420238733566,"sku":"240528903","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0255\/7539\/files\/winter-into-darkness-12_J4aZw.jpg?v=1717529558","url":"https:\/\/www.sorrystaterecords.com\/products\/winter-into-darkness-12","provider":"Sorry State Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
