UK psych rock/proto-metal trio Josiah is back with a new EP, »rehctaW«, which was just released on December 1st, 2023 via Interstellar Smoke Records.

Tracklist:
01. rehctaW
02. By My Left Hand

04. Black Annis (The Evocation Of)

Says the band: “The new Josiah EP »rehctaW« was released this weekend via Interstellar Smoke Records. Really proud of this record and the folk involved in its creation and release. Especially the piano played by Morgan Sol Limited vinyl editions and a gold CD housed in eco-packaging are available via Bandcamp & Big Cartel now.”

Josiah is the post-apocalyptic power psych trio headed up by singer/guitarist Mathew Bethancourt. Originally formed in 2000, Mathew reignited the band in 2020 and immediately began working on what would become »We Lay On Cold Stone« (Blues Funeral Recordings, 2022). The sound of Josiah is lysergic proto-metal for the dystopian loner. The soundtrack to the end of days. The kozmik cries of a bacchanalian gathering in full flow.
