.  Khmer is a five piece band from Madrid, Spain who formed in early 2012, from the looks of things.  Khmer play a killer style of music that incorporates elements of black metal, punk, crust, and sludge within their sound.  Since their inception in 2012, Khmer have released a five song demo in May of 2012, a split LP with After Forever in December of 2013, a ten song LP titled Nubes Que Anuncian Tormenta in November of 2014, a two song 7" titled 7 Infernios in April of 2015, and a split 10"with Livistid in September of 2015.  Larga Sombra is the band's latest full-length LP, which was released via Halo Of Flies, WOOAAARGH, Long Legs Long Arms, In My Heart Empire, and The Brave Records on August 11th, 2017.  Larga Sombra features eight tracks of dark, casustic, vicious, and brutal as fuck sounding black metal, crust, and sludge.  Larga Sombra clocks in at just under 25 minutes, making these eight songs result in a densely packed album worth of music that makes for a caustic and rage fueled exercise in sheer brutality.   Seriously, after hearing these eight songs in their entirety over the weekend, I haven't been able to get over how good this album is.  Highly recommended!  Enjoy!
