God, that band name sucks. Seriously? It sucks particularly because it makes genuinely interesting, lushly textured music hard to take seriously. Anyhoo, Nunfuckritual (aka Danny Lilker in Culted)  are, genre-wise, what I'm now calling doom/black. It's got the cool hyphen, like death/grind, and also sounds sorta meme-y, like you're cool for knowing the contraction that for that particular genre of music.  As you might guess, they're (atmospheric, sometimes nearly ambient) doom metal with distinct black metal imagery, production and vocal trends (i.e., the fucking of nuns, one can only presume; a very "chilly ...
