Sardinian heavy riffers Indigosaur premiere first single »The Wage« from debut album »Cosmic Censor«; out December 5th on Electric Valley Records!
Cagliari, Italy based stoner/heavy rockers Indigosaur have recently signed with Electric Valley Records to release their debut album, »Cosmic Censor«, which will see the light on December 5th, 2025.
The band commented: “Indigosaur are proud to work with Electric Valley Records for the release of their first record and to be part of the vast roster of this label, which is engaged in the support of niche genres of rock music. The positive experiences of other bands have convinced us to trust in the competence and passion that define EVR.”
Indigosaur also premiere the first single »The Wage« taken from their upcoming album »Cosmic Censor« on Deaf Forever.

»Cosmic Censor« is the first record from the band. Nine tracks of powerful, lysergic heavy rock, some direct and relentless, others that follow a more complex path. Vocal melodies are entwined with granitic riffs, the rhythm section guides the songs through dynamic instrumental openings and moments of contemplation. The lyrics dwell on pessimistic reflections on the human condition, metaphorical descriptions of astronomical phenomena and their link with mythology. The »Cosmic Censor« is the gravitational abomination from which nothing can escape.
Formed in Cagliari in 2018 Indigosaur (Lorenzo Alrifai – drums, Ivano Caria – bass, Nicholas Crozier – vocals, Gianni Pintus – guitar) putting togheter the experience accrued through the decades by its members, start working on the songs that would go into their first record. The first live shows are decisive in strengthening the cohesion of the band wich consider the live side of things as the purest expression of their musical sensibilities. After taking a break for reasons of “force majeure”, the band starts playng again at local rock venues and on the rocks of the mountains of Ogliastra and of the coast of the island of San Pietro in a bunch of “secret shows”. They share these concerts with various bands from the local scene (Elepharmers, Ilienses Tree, Black Capricorn, Fuzzriders). In 2023 Indigosaur record the tracks for the first album and continue to refine their live shows. During the summer of 2025 they open for the american band Duel, engaged on their european tour and, afterwards, for Gramma Vedetta, an Italo/English band from London. At the moment working on new material, Indigosaur are eager to present their work to a new, wider audience.
Says the band: “»The Wage«, first single from the album, guides the listener on a path of doom and gloom. The track progresses heavily towards an ethereal interlude to then rise again into becoming pure sonic storm.”
