Forged in the filthy depths of Hochelaga, Dopethrone is a sonic gut-punch of sludge metalnihilism, so vile it's a controlled substance. The Montréal trio conjures a tar-thick atmosphere
of addiction, misanthropy, and bottom-feeder blues called "Slutch" — a vicious hybrid of
black metal bleakness and NOLA-style sludge with a heavier-than-thou DIY mentality. Since
2008, they've churned out essential slabs of audio filth. After their breakthrough album "Dark
Foil" (2011) caught the ear of legends Voivod, they were summoned to spread their
contagion at Roadburn Festival in 2012, making Europe their adoptive land. Since then, they
have kept spreading the madness on stages across the globe, from the hallowed pits of
Maryland Doom Fest to Hellfest, leaving audiences crusted in a grime that never washes off.
In 2024, after six years of ominous studio silence, Dopethrone returned angrier than ever
with their sixth album on Totem Cat Records, "Broke Sabbath" — seven tracks of heavy
schizophrenic aggression, recorded for maximum asphyxiating density. This is music for the
wicked, the wretched, and the degenerates seeking a new high. Dopethrone is the
soundtrack to the world's end, so press play and laugh as the world burns.
