Flaming Tusk releases their first LP, Old, Blackened Century
Most of you are probably familiar with my metal band, Flaming Tusk. In which it is probably old news to you that we have finally released our first full-length record, Old, Blackened Century, on the internet.
We originally recorded this album in September of last year. We’ve spent the subsequent time mixing, mastering, and waiting around arguing over album titles, but it’s finally ready. The record—unlike the previous one, the Abigail EP—was recorded professionally by rock impresario Tom Beaujour at his palatial Nuthouse Recording studio in Hoboken, New Jersey, and then mastered by Kim Rosen at Knack Mastering. So, it sounds brilliant.
We’ve released the record on the Radiohead-style pay-what-you-will model. The whole record is being hosted at Bandcamp, which has a great and thorough service. You can stream any track, at full quality, as many times as you want. You can also download the whole thing in a variety of formats for any price you want to pay.
