Occasionally, a band name is all you need to gauge what something probably sounds like. Truckfighters and Acid Mammoth are two great examples. Here’s another: Lord Elephant create an absolutely huge sound throughout their second album ‘Ultra Soul’. The record’s seven instrumental numbers often find the Italian band in a weighty frame of mind, bringing a world of riffs that blend doom, stoner metal and deep psych in a way that invites favourable comparisons with Earthless and Karma To Burn, as well as drawing influence from the instrumental elements of Down and Eyehategod – only making those influences feel more intense.

Listen: Oreyeon share new single ‘I’m Your Mistake’

Posted on by

It’s not been long since Oreyeon released their ‘Echoes of Old Nightmares’ single, which re-introduced the Italian doom band to many in classic style. Across that track’s four and a half minutes, the musicians cranked their way through a selection of fuzzy riffs that sometimes sounded like Clutch in a really bad mood, often bringing a melodic charm to their weighty sound.
