US one-man alternative/desert rock band Doctor Nez unveil new single »Mark The Grave«; out June 14th on all streaming platforms!

Colorado Springs, Colorado based one-man alternative/desert rock band Doctor Nez has unveiled new single »Mark The Grave«, available now on Bandcamp and will be streaming everywhere on July 14th, 2024.

»Mark The Grave« is the first single taken from the upcoming EP »High Desert Lows« out in October 2024.

“Gritty, soaring stoner rock and classic heavy metal from Colorado.”

One-man riffing machine Doctor Nez began churning out righteous rock ‘n roll in early 2023, and now with singles and an EP under his belt, the Doc hones his craft further and reaches new heights with single »Mark The Grave«.

The rolling, meaty groove harkens back to classic stoner and desert rock, but there’s far more to the story as the signature vocals make immediately apparent. Soaring and emotive, Nez’s singing brings an epic flair to the proceedings, accentuated by piercing guitar leads and classic metal riffing. This is fist-pumping, emotive rock a la Green Lung with its heart on its sleeve.

In the band’s own words:

“Have you ever had the feeling of, ‘Why do anything? What’s the point anymore?’ Nearly everyone experiences this extreme low point in life, and Doctor Nez is here to tell you that you aren’t alone. A sonic hybrid of stoner rock and classic heavy metal, »Mark The Grave« laments the complete loss of spirit and motivation. Its driving riffs coupled with hauntingly distressed vocals forcibly kick the listener down the road to rock-bottom.

Doctor Nez combines punchy, riff-driven rock with honest lyrics about the struggles of modern life. From paranoia to substance dependence, loneliness to uncertainty, suicidal ideation to the death of ambition, Doctor Nez retells haunting stories from firsthand and secondhand accounts, all wrapped up in a package of gritty, overdriven guitar tones and unapologetically disheveled vocals.”

What’s next:

Says the Doc, “Doctor Nez’s upcoming EP, »High Desert Lows«, will satisfy nearly any appetite. Listeners will wander through the arid wastelands of the Mojave Desert on a journey to the frozen Rocky Mountains, accompanied by an auditory blending of stoner rock, grunge, electronic groove, dark instrumental post-rock, doom, and classic heavy metal. The desert calls to you this October; sing the lamentations, sway to the rhythm, and stay hydrated.”
