Botanist - Hammer Of Botany + Oplopanax Horridus LP (color vinyl)

This compilation contains EP2: Hammer of Botany originally released in 2015 along with the almost 13 minute song Oplopanax Horridus recorded in 2016.

Hailing from San Francisco, Botanist is a highly creative Experimental/ Avant-garde Black Metal band, or in their perspective, Green Metal, that is very peculiarly themed: the songs of Botanist are told from the perspective of The Botanist, a crazed man of science who lives in self-imposed exile, as far away from Humanity and its crimes against Nature as possible.

In his sanctuary of fantasy and wonder, which he calls the Verdant Realm, he surrounds himself with plants and flowers, finding solace in the company of the Natural world, and envisioning the destruction of man. There, seated upon his throne of Veltheimia, The Botanist awaits the time of humanity's self-eradication, which will allow plants to make the Earth green once again.
