Rahu is a black metal band from Finland based on Vedic astrology and Hindu mythology, this is their first demo Caput Draconis from 2007, released on tape and limited to 100 copies. The last track on this album, Into Nothingness Drawn, is an absolutely essential listen and undeniably catchy in a pleasantly repetitive fashion. Their demo that followed this one, Ride of the Eight Black Seeds, is equally as enjoyable as this demo I just happen to prefer this one simply for the final song. Their minimalist picture and Lovecraftian looking album art caught my eye, but I've continually came back to this demo for some time now, and for a reason. As a whole though, this demo is really fucking awesome, nothing revolutionary just really solid occult black metal.
