Stone Wings 'Bird of Stone Wings' Now Available

Stone Wings 'Bird of Stone Wings' is now available for purchase at our online shop:
shop.contagionreleasing.com

After a few delays, we are pleased to finally make the Stone Wings "Bird of Stone Wings" album available again. We first heard this album after acquiring a copy of the self released CD from the drummer, Neil, a couple years back and it was clear that we had to do a vinyl edition. We were immediately struck by how engrossing, well written, and powerful the album was. Complete with venomous vocals, unreal harmonized guitars, and perfect atmosphere. Total doom, majestic and captivating, in the Australian tradition. Listen to the entire album HERE

  • Dark Descent Records (US)
  • Parasitic Records (US)
  • Nuclear Winter Records (Greece)
