Ash Pool - From which he plies the lash

Ash Pool, based in New York, New York, came to life in 2005. The duo which plays black metal in a primitive, yet catchy and melancholic style is comprised of Dominick Fernow (Prurient, Vegas Martyrs, Taylor Bow) and Kris Lapke (Alberich, Northern Cross). Their latest release 'From which he plies the lash' is an interesting blend of musical styles, of course we have the raw BM elements but there are also some thrash elements which make for a more accomplished sound. The production values have somewhat increased and moved away from the rawer cassette sounds, but nonetheless a good record.
