Stoner doom band based in Chicago. Downtuned, droney, groovy riffs that will have you snapping your neck as we take control of your soul.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Next Saturday:

After we burn down the stage at Labor of Doom in Fort Wayne we ride to @theofficialdoomroom to spare none - innocent or not. If you are in a rush to the afterlife come snap your neck and punch your friends. The fiends will be set loose.

@o.i.l._sludge_pgh will accept your rotten souls by delivering filthy sludge driven worship. @builtfromruinband will melt your face and offer you nothing more than suffering.

Thanks so much to the bands and @theofficialdoomroom for letting us corrupt the local scene. Be there or live forever. taken in North End Pub by @witchknuckledoom

Lungsplitter will always be the band that helped us find our doom community and we plan to play a final show this spring so be ready. Mat will move from drums to bass and Bryan will continue shredding and making noise on the guitar so if you know a drummer that would be a good fit send them our way!

We plan on bringing you the same massive bass forward stoner doom riffs but might lean into some more meditative heavy psych feels. We have announced our show on July 11th with @shrineburnerband, @bachelorsgroveband, and @voidgazer_stl at livewire lounge and will start announcing more soon so stay tuned.
