An army of sound marching, relentlessly surging like a merciless avalanche of mayhem and distortion. Bifter arise with a sonic boom of fuzz laden riffs and weave a demented tapestry of stoner, sludge and doom. Soul crushing dual vocals feature atop a violent wall of guitar, bass and drums.

The band’s thunderous charge into 2025 has been building with riff upon filthy riff, seeing the release of singles »March Of The Imp« and »Kianpraty« alongside opening for Greenleaf and bringing down the house at Canberra’s skate fest Belco Bowl Jam. It all leads to this, Bifter’s massive new album »First Impressions Of Hell«, dropping on April 25th to coincide with their appearance at the sixth legendary SunBurn festival in Victoria.

Chock full of vile riffs from top to bottom, Bifter unleash rage and ruin across twelve tracks of stoner and doom. From facemelting thrash to low n’ slow nod, the crew do it all with an ear for hooks and a paint-peeling double vocal attack.

Headbangers and pit warriors beware, Bifter have arrived and bring hell’s fury with them.
