WOLFMANGLER

About Me

You can visit the main website of WOLFMANGLER where there are mp3s of two more songs as well as some material by Smolken's other bands, namely DEAD RAVEN CHOIR and GARLIC YARG. The site is located at www.deadravenchoir.com
WOLFMANGLER's music is slow, grim, noisy and shambling doom metal constructed around a bowed double bass, one or two electric bass guitars and whatever other instruments were available. Approximately half the songs are constructed around dissonant doom riffs; the rest consist of covers of folk songs, classical music pieces and jazz standards. WOLFMANGLER was based in Texas from 2004-2005 but has now been reborn in a Polish version.
