Prepare the ritual! Daytripper’s hallucinatory new music video »The Alchemist« out now; the new EP drops October 24th!
Daytripper conjures earth-crushing desert stoner doom from the sands of Phoenix, Arizona. Last year, the release of their debut LP, »Book I: The Trip«, beckoned to doom worshipers worldwide with infectious riffs and mystifying lore. Their upcoming project, »The Alchemist«, evolves and progresses the doom palette while further illuminating the backstory of a core character from »Book I«. The new EP steeps Daytripper’s doom core in a concoction of psychedelic locrian modes, enchanting synthesizers, and nod-inducing sludge.
Title track »The Alchemist« tantalizes listeners with the most iconic components of the new Daytripper sound. Accompanying the single is a narrative music video that transports onlookers into the smoke-filled study of the Alchemist, summoning all to bear witness to his forbidden experiments.
2025 has been the most dynamic chapter for Daytripper. The year began with a welcoming of the band’s newest sages: The Seer and Warrior Sage. The Seer Sage’s ethereal vocals and hypnotic synthesizer tones with the Warrior Sage’s pummeling grooves behind the kit elevated this new era of Daytripper. This year also saw the sages bring their ritualistic live performance beyond the Sonoran Desert with two tours.
In Spring, the Trippers joined Denver’s Green Druid on a tour of the Southwest. Then the sages embarked on a Summer Pilgrimage to rumble the foundations of Maryland Doom Fest’s final, triumphant year. New sages, new audiences, and an expansive new sound carve a path towards the beginning of a new era, »The Alchemist«.
What’s next:
Daytripper will be opening for Castle Rat on September 23rd, followed by »The Alchemist« EP release show November 15th. The band will hit the road again in the Spring, this time running up the West coast.
