Crushing doom act Vagina Witchcraft’s self-titled EP from last year begins with a battle cry in the form of a spoken-word poem from frontperson Kayla Fernandes about embracing their Blackness. From there on out it’s all guttural screams over punishing instrumentals that drip with foreboding sludge. One of the heaviest acts at this year’s festival, Vagina Witchcraft is a head-splitting experience that’ll rattle your bones.
