If Shikabane mixed Crust and Black Metal the most evenly, Desolation mixed them the best. What does that mean? The line betweeen their influences was thicker than some of their contemporaries, but they still wrote better music. Being a side project, Desolation was always overshadowed by the more popular sister band Born/Dead. It's a shame too, because I think Desolation was easily better. This project had all the feeling and intensity of their more straight-forward Punk contemporaries, but boasted the added sophistication of Metal guitar leads and playing techniques. In short, there was just more to this band.
the only wee
