The slow, ponderous and ever-encroaching force created by Calgary’s Milkmaid is both fear-inducing and awe-inspiring. The crust, the filth, and downright evil sounds that are produced show they are ready to bury their prairie home. They might be young, but they have tapped into a source of brutality that is as old as humanity. Could it be witchcraft? The next generation of doom-laden sludge is here!

Hear Milkmaid for yourself on Bandcamp, and link up on Instagram.
