Named after the genus of poisonous mushrooms, their catalog sprawls across multiple EPs and full-lengths that explore the intersection of crushing weight and hypnotic repetition, from the lysergic haze of Love³ to the pandemic-era Quarantine in Warm.

Newport News, Virginia black metal project. The name — meaning 'eternal' in several languages — channels timeless darkness from Hampton Roads.
