Hurling straight at you from their wholly tongue-impaled cheek comes »…And His Skull Shall Make My Bong«, the debut full-length from Southern California’s Vape Warlök.
If a bongwater-soaked battle vest covered in poorly-sewn-on Sleep patches and mildew became sentient and formed a band, it would be Vape Warlök. Comprising members of Unida, Circle of Sighs, and High Priestess, these denizens of the dour doom dumpster aspire to make music that is raw, primitive, and heavier than thou.
The upcoming album was written and recorded in 2023-2024 at Thee Culveric Catacombs (Culver City, CA), Suspirium Art Space (DTLA), and Downtown Rehearsal (DTLA). The trio shared an official video earlier this year for the album-opening track »Satan’s Succubus«.
That first single alone thoroughly indicates that Vape Warlök slathers their knuckle-dragging stoner-doom in a thick husk of filthy slime that won’t wash off no matter how hard you try. It’s just plain gross, and that’s how they like it.
»…And His Skull Shall Make My Bong« will be available in digital and physical format on April 20th, 2025, including limited edition vinyl via Pillars Of Creation.

“Brutal and brilliant filthy. Bongzilla meets Thou.” – Steve H., Outlaws Of The Sun
“Vape Warlök are superlatively heavy, and obviously the call not to take »…And His Skull Shall Make My Bong« too seriously is resonant from the skullbong blacklight poster artwork on through the murky psychedelia of the »Satan’s Succubus« video and the grueling chicanery that ensues from the opener onward. At the same time, Vape Warlök aren’t so easy to discount as being just-fuckery. That there would be an awareness of their place in the genre isn’t a surprise — they’re veteran players, just with fun nicknames.” – The Obelisk
“Ridiculous, filthy, ignorant riffs… A lumbering drug march through molasses. Love it.” – Darryl Shepard
