Says the band: “This album is a full accounting of this band’s development. It features some of the first songs we wrote (»Doomsday Profit« and »Monument To Nothing«), as well as the most technical and dynamic tunes we’ve mustered so far (»Sin Eater«). It holds a breadth of emotions from »Terror Cycle’s« political vitriol to »Spirits«’ bitter self-criticism, and even the oddly motivational »Drive Into The Sun«.
We’ll be releasing »Terror Cycle« to streaming next week, and »Sin Eater« in August. So stay tuned!”

About Doomsday Profit:
There’s no time to waste. At least that’s how Doomsday Profit seems to be operating. After making their debut with the gritty stoner-sludge of 2021’s »In Idle Orbit«, the Durham, N.C.-based band issued 2024’s psych-leaning split with Virginia-based Smoke, and has kept the momentum going ever since. With their forthcoming self-titled album, Doomsday Profit now has embedded an even wider array of influences into their acerbic, dystopian sludge. Particles of monolithic doom, grisly death ‘n’ roll grooves, driving punk rock and scathing black metal all flash in the band’s raw self-titled LP.
As ever, Doomsday Profit has a finger pointed squarely at the powers that be, but they’ve also learned to turn their ire inward, and balance their vitriol with melancholic nuance. This broader approach has turned their already dynamic performances into a must-see, with a live resume that includes Hopscotch Music Festival and Seismic Summer, as well as supporting slots with established acts like Thou, The Obsessed, Black Tusk, REZN, Year of the Cobra, and Restless Spirit.
