THUNDERBIRD DIVINE is a psychedelic stoner rock band from Philadelphia, known for their unique blend of heavy riffing and psychedelic textures. They recently released their second full-length album, "Little Wars," on August 30, 2024, featuring tracks like "Last Laugh" and "Times Gone Bad". Additionally, they have a live album titled "Live, Loud and Lucky," which captures their performances after the passing of their long-time member, Jack Falkenbach. The band continues to evolve their sound, incorporating various instruments and experimenting with different musical styles. For more information, you can visit their official website or Bandcamp.

Hailing from the Virginia suburbs of Washington, DC, FOEHAMMER’s music belies its bustling surroundings. Rather, Foehammer conjure the creeping tectonic progression of transform faults, culminating in releases of sound waves the magnitude of which is best measured by seismometers. In keeping with the appropriate timescale, each of the three funeral doom epics on Foehammer’s debut EP clock in past the 9 minute mark. Foehammer is doom metal in the truest sense of the appellation, crushing, unrelenting and suffused with a foreboding of cataclysm that smothers each of the EP’s all-to-brief 34 minutes. Foehammer’s rupturing first salvo will undoubtedly appeal to fans of Graves At Sea, Warhorse, Corrupted, Hell, Buried At Sea and other purveyors of the slow.

SEASICK GLADIATOR has crafted a rare sound that’s as profound as it is haunting. Their dedication to blending heavy doom riffs with the evocative tones of a violin creates a soundscape that Chris Rasley describes as needing to be "interesting and deep… heavy doesn’t have to be hard or fast, it just has to be deep. You have to feel it.
