stoner metal

Maryland-based psychedelic doom metal trio Yatra recently finalized work on their most ambitious and devastating release to date. The band proudly offers their crushing third album, “All is Lost”, now confirmed for October release through Grimoire Records, who this week issues the record's cover art, track listing, preorders, and more.
 

Of what started as a cover project in 2014, paying a tribute to bands alike Mastodon, Black Tusk, Red Fang or Sleep, should soon become a hot tip of Italy’s eclectic underground scene, when Athon began to create their own tracks and sound.

The four-piece collective hailing from the alps of Varese, Italy, combines their various influences with individual ideas, songwriting and a personal trademark sound, balancing graciously between the elements of stoner, sludge and doom metal.

Having first met in the late 90s over beers in Borlänge – a small Swedish town with a history forged from iron – Henrik, Lars and Michael struck up a pact whose potential would not be fully realised for almost fifteen years.
 

An album like a flow of acidic mantras, rich with dark atmospheres and full of distortions: “Eclectic Poison Tones”, the upcoming brand new full length record by Stoner Doom unit Jahbulong, will see the light of day on October 30th, 2020, via Go Down Records.

Being influenced from 70s psychedelia to Seattle’s 90s grunge, “Eclectic Poison Tones” is the result of the band’s ongoing development and hunger to explore new noise digressions.

Seattle-based doom/sludge trio deathCAVE will release their “Smoking Mountain” debut full-length this August via Satanik Royalty Records.

Named after the Apache Death Cave in Arizona, deathCAVE was forged in 2018 and hit the ground running as its three members - Freiburger (Throne Of Bone, Brain Scraper), Benny Koslosky (Swampyheavy), and Tony Muñoz (Razorhoof, Worship) - are longtime veterans of the underground touring circuit.

Corrosion Of Conformity are pleased to announce that some of their previously planned 2020 UK/EU tour dates that had been halted due to the spread of Covid-19, have been rescheduled to take place in spring 2021, alongside some new dates.

C.O.C will be hitting our shores in April and May 2021, with support due to come from Arizona’s Spirit Adrift. 

UK & EU Tour Dates 2021:
24 Apr – Academy, Dublin, IE 
25 Apr - Limelight 2, Belfast, UK

Denver-based doom bringers In The Company Of Serpents will unleash their new full-length, “Lux”, on May 15th, 2020.
