Conjurer
-(16)-
Dopethrone is a three-piece band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Active since 2008, this DIY band is known for their abrasive mix of sludge and doom, with lyrics based on self-destruction, cannabis, sleazy drug abuse, and the macabre. Influenced by rock ’n’ roll, punk, black metal, and blues, the band refers to their music as “Slutch,” the Canadian term for cold sludge, a.k.a. dirty mud snow. They once described it as “frozen sludge, snow covered in addiction, blood, tears, and broken dreams.”
After their second release, the band started drawing attention and was invited by Voivod to perform at Roadburn 2012. Since then, they haven’t stopped growing their audience in Europe, their adoptive land.
Since their formation, Dopethrone has released five full-length studio albums, collaborated with other artists, and regularly toured Europe and Canada.
After a series of massive tours in 2019, the band has not hit the road since, focusing instead on the “delicate” baking of their new release. The new effort, scheduled for early 2024, was set to be accompanied by North American tours and a return to Europe for select dates.
