Be ready for this four-piece to lure you in and drag you down to the crawling pit of their inner psyche.Ĭatch Windhand and Cough at any of the following dates: Surging between moments of reprieve and impenetrable sound, Cough live are nothing short of soul-destroying. Now they have returned after a five-year hiatus with the monolithic beast that is Still They Pray. Drawing from savage elements of extreme music, the past decade has seen the band inspired by everything from early black metal and sludge tones to psychedelia, doom’s early genre forefathers, blues and more-all in their search for beauty in the darkest of places. Simultaneously massive, heavy and deeply personal, the haunting and hypnotic vocals of Dorthia Cottrell serve to guide the listener through the dual riff attack of guitarists Garrett Morris and Asechiah Bogdan.Ĭough rose from the fertile metal swamps of Richmond, Virginia to produce some of the most intense, tortured and misanthropic doom out.
WINDHAND TUR 2016 FULL
And their third full length, Grief’s Infernal Flower, cemented the band as one of the doom masters of our time.ĭubbed as “…doom metal’s most anticipated album of the year”, Grief’s Infernal Flower is the epitome of fuzzed-out bliss. Since first surfacing in 2009, this Virginia five-piece quickly outgrew their local underground ties to tour the globe with acts like Sleep, High On Fire, Dead Meadow and Kvelertak. Being from Richomond adds some additional interest in my eyes.LIFE IS NOISE is excited to announce that two powerhouses of American doom metal- Windhand and their spiritual kin Cough-will be heading to our shores in 2017. These label-mates from Virginia will be melting minds at select venues throughout Australia and New Zealand as part of a massive doom double-header in March and April next year. I think with the right followers they can become pretty big in the scene. If you are fan of late Electric Wizard stuff, horror flicks from late 60’s and early 70’s and just enjoy the music, not listening to production, because criticizing production on a doomy record is something beyond my understanding. I think it suites them well and it sounds the way they do it, cos as I said before it’s underground basement doomy stuff with all the 70’s horror sweetness in a way like Electric Wizard are doing after Dopethrone album. Many people think the production is bad, but not me. Guys just having fun playing in basement and recording it.

You won’t find any technical stuff just basic heavy stuff. It’s not too slow and not too fast for my taste. So to describe the album itself…from beginning to the end it’s heavy riffing with many catchy moments. The band released a demo EP back in 2010, which I didn’t heard yet, but it must be also interesting since the LP is really good. I saw the cover artwork of their debut LP and I thought: »Hm, this looks tasty.« It’s kind a mixture of Electric Wizard and Black Sabbath cover artwork and so is the music. I came across it just randomly while browsing. Recently I found a fairly new band called Windhand. I like quite a lot of the material that is coming out, but mostly it’s pretty mediocre.
