“A distinctive blend of narcoleptic heaviosity and dreamy melodicism.” — Shindig! Magazine

“This is truly an album for the deep thinking, astral-gazers among us.” — Distorted Sound Magazine

“An album rife with heady blues riffs and subtle psychedelic tones.” — NARC Magazine

Listen to Dead Meadow’s new album »Force Form Free«!

Formed in the fall of 1998, Dead Meadow emerged from the Washington, D.C. indie/punk scene to fuse their love of early ’70s hard rock and ’60s psychedelics into a unique marriage of dreamy guitar-fuzz bliss and stoney riffs. Over the course of seven studio albums, three live records and a Peel Session, they incorporated darker eastern influences and increasingly dense and hypnotic layering as they toured such far-reaching places as Russia and Australia and performed at renowned festivals including Roadburn and Levitation Fest. They’ve become an inarguable pillar of the modern heavy psych movement alongside contemporaries like Black Mountain, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard and The Black Angels.

In 2021, they began work on a collection of jams and experiments for Blues Funeral Recordings’ PostWax series, working up a disparate yet cohesive group of songs that placed new works alongside the culmination of ideas they’d been tinkering with since the band’s genesis. The result of these efforts is »Force Form Free«, a spacey and dreamy record at times, grimly propulsive at others, and which captures Dead Meadow continuing their effortless exploration of the transporting, astral-gazing form they’ve spent their entire existence pushing forward.

»Force Form Free«, is available on various vinyl editions, limited digipack CD and digital through Blues Funeral Recordings. Get more info about the »PostWax Vol. II« series at this location.

Dead Meadow »Force Form Free« available now on Blues Funeral Recordings. Order via BFR website, Bandcamp and European store.

PostWax II will unfold as a series of 9 deluxe releases on gorgeous vinyl, next-level sleeve design, hand-crafted art and illustrations, and behind-the-scenes liner notes, with releases from Dead Meadow, Acid King, Josiah, Lowrider and Elephant Tree, Mammoth Volume, The Otolith, REZN and Vinnum Sabbathi.
