Wolf Council Vinyl Giveaway

The Wolf Council
Welcome to the first Glacially Musical music giveaway.

First and foremost, let's discuss today's subject: The Wolf Council.

I reviewed their debut album back in January ahead of it's February release. On Feb 24th, it was released through the usual outlets, CD and digital.

But there was a demand for this album to be released on vinyl and their label, Static Tension Recordings is doing just that.

The rub is that there are only going to be 500 copies total of this LP pressed in three colors. I've teamed up with Static Tension Recordings in order to give one test pressing away to a lucky winner.

Here are the particulars:

Start Time: NOW!

End Time: Friday 6/19/15 at 12pm Central Standard Time.

What do you have to do to win:

1) Follow myself @13blog and Static Tension Recordings @StaticTension

2) Tweet me @13blog and @StaticTension under #wolfcouncil.

Sample: "Hey @13blog I want to win #wolfcouncil from @StaticTension!!!!!!!! WOO!"

The random winner will be chosen at 12:30PM Central Standard Time.

Disclaimer: Winner must reside in the USA or offer up a USA mailing address.

There is no limit times you can enter because I won't be able to keep track anyway.

No purchases necessary and good luck!

Here's how I'm keeping track. I am favoriting each entry I receive. I have found a Random Number Generator and I will use it and tweet to pick the winner. No favorites!

Album Review: "The Wolf Council" by The Wolf Council

The Wolf Council
From it's earliest days, metal had strong ties to blues and psychedelic music.

Black Sabbath is arguably the first metal band, but of course Led Zeppelin is also a part of this mix.

Aside from high gain guitars the only thing these two bands have in common is a deep love of the blues.

Well musically anyway, they both also had a deep love of achieving altered states of consciousness....

Looking at the path of metal from that point on, it's  hard to see the connection between Sabbath, Zeppelin, and Priest with Metallica, Cannibal Corpse, or The Black Dahlia Murder because there are about 45 degrees of separation between them, but let's look at a band that has one degree of separation from the originators...well maybe two.
