The results of our BEST OF 2023 readers poll are a month old already by now, but we still would like to share with you what John McEntee of INCANTATION just sent in, regarding the fact that their latest album “Unholy Deification” made it to number four in the list: “We are honored to be in the Voices From The Darkside Top 10 Readers Poll. This means a lot to us because we know the readers of VFTDS are genuine underground deathbangers, and that’s where INCANTATION’s heart is at. Thank you very much, and we look forward to seeing everyone out on the road in 2024!” www.facebook.com/incantationofficial
