ALL bands blowing out the low-ceiling stage at Eastside biker haven Lost Well should apply corpse paint. Made up like Kiss, Belgium-born Marz Osborne is only too happy to oblige. As one-woman black metal hellion Hulder, the now-Seattle-based bandleader passes through our hellish heat for this month’s mini LP, The Eternal Fanfare, for 20 Buck Spin. Her death caw in service of blasphemous masses – a droning, clamorous haze of the genre’s traditional wall of malevolence – follows last year’s full-length debut, Godslastering: Hymns of a Forlorn Peasantry. Austin-rooted blasphemers Skeleton support and San Antonio’s blackened thrashers Black Jackal open. Marz massacres Venus.
