German stoner/doom metal trio Mother Bear share new single and music video »Homunkoloss«

Dortmund, Germany based stoner/doom metal trio Mother Bear has released new single and music video »Homunkoloss«. Listen to »Homunkoloss« on all major streaming platforms.

Says the band: “Our single »Homunkoloss« is out now. Stream it everywhere or watch the music video on Rob Hammer’s YouTube channel!”

Mother Bear is a stoner/doom metal trio from Dortmund, Germany, founded in 2017 by Florian Grass (drums) and Kevin Krenczer (bass). After releasing some tracks as a duo they were joined by Jonas Wenz (guitars & vocals) and found their current shape. They now combine slow, heavy riffs with psychedelic influences and are as known the only Walter Moers-themed band on this planet.

Formed in 2017 by Florian Grass (drums) and Kevin Krenczer (bass) alongside their former blues and psych band Saint Gallus Convention Tapes and their short-lived noise/drone project Nakapan, the stoner doom band released their demo »Bear Mother« the same year, followed by the single »PKB-7«. After a short hiatus, Jonas Wenz, bass player in the hardcore band Second Sight, joined the cathartic doom duo on guitar and vocals, leading the the sloth of bears to switching their sound to a more song-oriented, psychedelic sound.

United in their worship of the muggroom, their love for loud amps, as well as the creed of “slow music for slow minds”, Mother Bear truly does their namesake justice. After their debut album »Zamonian Occultism«, a collaborative split EP with Rhode Island-based folk singer Allysen Calelry, life gigs with EyeHateGod, Eremit or Monastr as well as non-genre acts like Giant Crow, they will release their second longplayer »Orm 2« (hopefully) in 2026.
