Scottish/German drone/doom metal duo Pak40 released new EP »Superfortress«; out now via Inverted Grim-Mill Recordings / Sonic Centurion!

Scottish/German drone/doom metal duo Pak40 presents their new three-track EP, »Superfortress«, which was just released on December 4th, 2025 via Inverted Grim-Mill Recordings and Sonic Centurion.

Tracklist:
01. Old Nomad
02. Superfortress
03. Ascend

Formed by bassist Andy Glen and drummer Leo Hancill in 2016, PAK40 is a loud, immersive and atmospheric experience sitting somewhere between Om and Primus, which will appeal to both traditionalists and those after something new and innovative.

PAK40’s arsenal consists of precise drums, thundering bass, distortion and feedback. Whilst firmly embedded in stoner, drone, sludge and doom, the band takes the traditional template and expands upon it with a healthy dose of groove and experimentation.

PAK40’s debut album, »Bunker« was released in March 2021 to positive reviews, and was well-received in the scene, with the track »Hollow Man« being featured on the Weedian’s compilation, »Trip to England«.

Based out of York (UK), PAK40 are currently working on new material and looking to play as many live shows as possible in 2022. If you want PAK40 to bring total sonic ruin to your venue, festival, house party, squat, living room or 4th dimensional crawl space, send them a message to: pa*******@***il.com.
