Antwerp-based sludge rock pillars Your Highness return with their brand new EP »The RagBag Vol.1« this June 30th on all digital streaming platforms, and present their caustic and fun »To Dust« video today.
Self-described as purveyors of “colossal riffage and shivering blues”, Your Highness have always been about raw energy and stomp-inducing grooves while keeping a strong melodic approach just like the bands they shared stages with (High On Fire, Big Business, Torche), and at times conjuring a dark blues/country-infused sound à la Wovenhand. Their 2019 self-titled album was a testament to the band progressing into a more mature and solid stoner metal sound. 2021 saw the release of their epic »Deathsman« video, taken from the soundtrack of the Belgian-found horror movie »Duyster«.
In 2022, Your Highness return with their two-volume EP »The Ragbag«. While »Vol.1« displays a more melodic and up-tempo sound, »Vol.2« shows a darker and more droning side. This ninth studio delivery from the mighty quintet was recorded in their own rehearsal dungeon in the south of Antwerp with the help of engineer Wim Meuwis. It was mixed and mastered by Martin Furia at Trix Antwerp, with artwork and layout by Joachim Cols and Ben Baert. »The RagBag Vol.1« will be issued digitally on June 30th, with »Vol.2« coming in the fall of 2022.
Armed with a huge DIY spirit, Your Highness started bulldozing the Belgian underground scene and abroad back in 2009. Since their inception, these sludge berserkers have released three full-lengths, three EPs, a horror movie-themed track and video, and their own beer! Touring Belgium and western Europe several times, they supported the likes of Corrosion Of Conformity, High On Fire, Crowbar, The Sword, Weedeater, Torche and played festivals like Pukkelpop, Graspop, Desertfest, Roadburn, Ieperfest, Into The Void, Alcatraz, Groezrock and more. Known for their intense live shows and their strong DIY ethos, Your Highness are ready to take the future by the horns.
