Credit to (aka copied from) use "Mayday" on this site. "My mono-black take on the grixis songs deck.

The goal is to cycle cycle cycle, using rituals for mana and then Reaping the Graves to re-cycle, eventually casting some big Songs of the Damned and killing our opponent with Consume Spirit.

Sometimes we fall a little short and will also need Haunting Misery with Consume Spirit. I think this makes our combo more consistent though.

The best part is the sideboard plan. Usually after game one, our opponent brings in more counters, graveyard hate, and takes out removal. This lets us change up our plan to Exhume-ing (or just hard-casting) a Horror of the Broken Lands and cycling to make it huge and either cycling a Dirge of Dread to give it fear or using Rite of Consumption to kill our opponent. We bring in Duress to eat a counter and make sure the coast is clear."
