Stereogum is now hosting an exclusive stream of Midwestern metal cult, WOLVHAMMER’s third, monstrous full-length album, Clawing Into Black Sun, as the album nears release in just one week via Profound Lore Records.

Amidst a continually-expanding mass of journalistic praise of the fifty-minute Clawing Into Black Sun, Stereogum’s write-up of WOLVHAMMER’s newworks, which accompanies the album stream, is among the most positive yet. Referring to the bands first two albums — 2010′s Black Marketeers Of World War III and 2011′s The Obsidian Plains – as “violently aggressive, ugly things of crusty, hardcore-based black metal,” Stereogum states that the material on the new record, “feels quite a bit more subdued by comparison: It’s clear, spacious, doomy, almost goth-y in places.” It continues, praising, “Clawing Into Black Sun deserves to be heard. All the editorial choices and advancements made here by WOLVHAMMER are positive ones; this is the band’s best album to date.”
