Portland's street doomers R.I.P. announce debut album "In The Wind", dropping this March on Totem Cat Records
If
there's one thing you didn't see coming for 2016, it's a radical heavy
metal assault by Oregon's self-proclaimed "street doomers" R.I.P.. Their rousing debut album "In The Wind" - due out this March on Totem Cat Records and illustrated by US painter Adam Burke - will make all metalheads' hearts leap with joy. Get in the wind or get out the way...
Watch R.I.P.'s (literally) bone-crushing trailer for "In The Wind" NOW
In a
heavy metal wasteland littered with cookie cutter snooze-button doom
bands rocking $10,000 rigs and $1 riffs, its a huff of fresh air
straight out of the glue bottle to hear R.I.P. – four cretins
from the Pacific Northwest who play knuckle dragging death obsessed
metal at the speed of the streets. After several years of hammering the
west coast with the blunt scythe of street-doom, they finally committed
to tape an introductory will and testament for the rest of the world to
tremble to. “In the Wind” closes the casket on the trends and exhumes
the notion that doom isn’t about how slow and de-tuned you can play, but
about fear, death, leather and playing as heavy as possible. A full US
tour in the spring follows this Totem Cat Records release, where the
band plans to drag the rest of the country down with them.
Doom is dead: R.I.P. doom.
