Quelling The Simian Surge

Arghoslent

Arghoslent is an American death metal band from Oakton, Virginia formed in mid-1990. While acclaimed in the metal underground for their trad metal-influenced brand of galloping riffs and bluegrass-style guitar leads, the band's lyrics have been the source of much controversy. Arghoslent's primary lyrical themes include racism, white supremacy, apologia for the trans-Atlantic slave trade, Holocaust, eugenics, imperialism, and European genocide efforts against Native Americans, among other atrocities. As of 2021, Arghoslent has all material and lyrics written for their as-of-yet untitled fourth studio album, but tracking has been delayed due to the travel restrictions caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. more »
