SEA OF BONES
"While ‘The Earth Wants Us Dead’ is firmly focused down the negative end of the line there is enough variance, enough playing around with light and shadow and enough examination of bleak emotions from melancholia to misanthropy to appeal to anyone with a taste for the darker spectrum, from fans of True Widow through to Crowbar. Sludge to Shoegaze and beyond into Post-Rock territory, if anyone can even remember such a thing." - The Sleeping Shaman

BEFORE THE EYEWALL
"Before the Eyewall are best described as doomy, atmospheric and psychedelic, drawing comparisons to similar doomy post-metal acts like Mouth of the Architect or even Light Bearer, with a strong focus on heavy cinematic tension and guitar interplay." Sludgelord
"There are elements of post-metal lurking about in some of the ambient/heavy switchoffs and tidal riffy plod, but even at their most atmospheric, Before the Eyewall don’t succumb to the trap of redundancy in which so much latter-day post-metal is caught" The Obelisk

FOEHAMMER
"Fuzz fiends and tone worshippers: Get on this one. More than a set of songs, Monumentum is – as the kids say – a whole vibe... Some truly eclectic ideas shed heft in favor of clarity and textural variety. The most enticing bits remind us of Yob or Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and only in the best ways."
–Decibel
“Inspired by some of their favorite writers and the all-too-bleakness of our current reality, Foehammer continues to build upon the lore hidden beneath their sludge-ridden doom. Dour fans of Hell and Fórn will cling to this like gooey black tar.”
–Toilet ov Hell

ABOUT GALACTIC PANTHER GALLERY:
In December 2020, Eli Pollard (mostly) completed renovations on a space on the edge of Morgantown, WV in a 100 year old building and began filling it with artwork by artists from all over the world. Live music was soon to follow including a performance by the legendary David Fair of Half Japanese.
Longtime friend and art connoisseur Erik Muendel who had been collecting Eli’s artwork for years had recently purchased ESP Tea & Coffee in Old Town Alexandria, VA. Erik filled the teahouse with artwork by Pollard and others. His collection caught the attention of a friend who suggested that he open an art gallery. Erik, having visited Eli’s Galactic Panther in Morgantown, saw an opportunity to collaborate.
Erik & Eli put their heads together & formed a dynamic and creative team to help expand Galactic Panther into a new space on King Street in Old Town Alexandria with an opening reception on August 6, 2021. The Galactic Panther team boasts collaborators including Rachel Pollard, Brittani Maggio, Leo Maggio, Grant Gallas, Cordelia McGale, & Angel Pak.
