Australian blackened doom/sludge metal band Ghostsmoker drops a music video for the track »Eternal Veil« from their debut EP, »Grief«, out on June 14th, 2022 via Goatsound / Gamla Grind Records.
Total blackened stoner doom from Melbourne, Australia!
Ghostsmoker is a doom band from Melbourne and their 4-track 12” EP »Grief« is out on Goatsound (in partnership with Gamla Grind Records) on June 14th.
They play a blackened style of doom with some super thick distorted tones and a really cool way of maximizing the ambience some black metal manages to squeeze in without becoming some kind of ambient shoegazey stuff. It’s like classic doom, while perhaps losing some of the schlocky horror and falling well short of becoming indie doom complete with cardigans and art degrees.
It’s nasty and filthy but really well crafted and thought out, with killer guitar tones that build without you realizing and a vocal that is pummeling in all its blackened glory.
It’s grim it’s frostbitten, Its fucking total doom! Death to posers and all that shit!
