doomdruidmaster Heavy, bluesy doom with powerful vocals. Imagine if Grace Slick were the singer of Saint Vitus, and there you have it. Favorite track: Holy Grove.

muschiosauro thumbnail
muschiosauro Superbly rich and strong female vocals blend with a rock solid band in an awesome and entrancing stoner blues ride replete with thick riffs, searing solos and thundering grooves. Favorite track: Death of Magic.
neldinsky
neldinsky thumbnail
neldinsky The most badass gal singer in the heavy rock world AND she's supported by GREAT songs played by a KILLER band riffing like banshees. This is exceptional heavy retro 70's doom that we love. Heart singing with Sabbath or Zeppelin. It's that great. NB Favorite track: Death of Magic.

The band has supported the likes of Yob, Wayne Kramer’s MC50, Windhand, Elder, and High On Fire, even earning a slot on the prestigious Psycho Las Vegas festival. ... more
