Vermont’s Vibrant Metal Scene Shines in The Best Metal on Bandcamp, October 2023
In the article "The Best Metal on Bandcamp, October 2023," Vermont's own Body Void makes a significant impact with their latest release, Atrocity Machine. The band is highlighted as one of the key representatives of the metal scene, characterized by their heavy sound that combines sludge-drenched guitars and punishing rhythms. Their music stands out not just for its intensity, but also for its sharp social commentary, as frontperson Willow Ryan's lyrics critique systemic issues in American society. Body Void's work exemplifies the raw power and emotional depth that defines the current metal landscape, positioning them as a formidable force within the genre. This endorsement underscores Vermont's growing contribution to the metal community, showcasing the state's unique artistic voice in the broader context of music being celebrated on platforms like Bandcamp.
