Marrow of Man/Nightmare Effigy — Decimation of the Spirit

Two rising forces in modern black metal converge for a split that drags you into the deepest caverns of despair and defiance.

Marrow of Man crafts melodic black metal steeped in triumphant riffs and sweeping, mournful passages. Guttural vocals rise from the ruins, telling stories of resistance against occupation and imperial violence. It’s passionate, politically charged, and unrelenting — anthems of rebellion wrapped in atmospheric doom.

On the flip side, Nightmare Effigy conjures raw atmospheric chaos — heavy, aggressive riffs shrouded in frostbitten melancholy. Bleak, cold, and seething with emotion, his sound is a storm of blackened sorrow where haunting melodies carve moments of fragile light into the overwhelming dark.

Together, they offer a harrowing yet mesmerizing journey through suffering, resistance, and ruin. Decimation of the Spirit is a study in contrasts — melodic and raw, political and personal, furious and reflective — forged from the same black fire.
