Hailing from Germany, KARLOFF formed in 2018, describing their sound as raw obscure punk turns into blackness, If KARLOFF's previous two demos presented them as a more gutter-level Midnight, then The Appearing recasts the band in a totally new, altogether more unique. The lead-heavy stomp here harkens to ancientdays metalpunk like Carnivore, Best Wishes-era Cro-Mags, or even early Nasty Savage.
