Today, WINDHAND unveil their new hypnotic video, "First
To Die" directed by Philippe Grenade. "The inspiration for the video
started with the lyrics, First you die, to be born," Grenade explains.
"I immediately saw the image of a woman suffocated by the crushing anxiety
of a metropolis; drowning in the delirium and being forced through some sort of
psychedelic death trip and coming out the other side with a new point of view.
A psychic death and rebirth. The video expresses anxiety and transformation
while honoring the beauty of Windhand's music."
Additionally, WINDHAND returns to Europe
next week in support of their new album Eternal Return. The headline tour
begins March 7 in Vienna, AT and ends March 24
in Leipzig, DE. All confirmed dates are available below.
WINDHAND - "First To Die" (Official Music Video)
WINDHAND’s 4th studio album Eternal Return is out now on
CD/2xLP/CS/Digital on Relapse Records. Physical packages are available for
order HERE and Digital Downloads/Streaming AT THIS LOCATION.
Eternal Return, produced by Jack Endino (Soundgarden,
Nirvana), represents a new era for the group, a chrysalis moment that takes
them to new and unforeseen heights. Boosted by Garrett Morris' consistently
cool riffs-forged at the crossroads of Iommi's otherworldly import and Kurt
Cobain's spontaneous precocity-powered by Ryan Wolfeand Parker Chandler's
groove-laden rhythms, and propelled by Dorthia Cottrell's smoky yet wistful
vocals, WINDHAND's new album is a two-step jump for Richmond's finest purveyors
of the psycho-actively heavy.

"Dorthia Cottrell, one of the most persuasive metal
singers to emerge this decade...End to end, it is riveting."
PITCHFORK
"Windhand is among the genre's reigning bands in part
because frontwoman Dorthia Cottrell's voice embodies all the rich, velvety and
earthy qualities of a perfectly overdriven amp"
NPR
"Windhand pair a bass-heavy groove with frontwoman
Dorthia Cottrell's ethereal vocals"
ROLLING STONE
"Windhand's fourth and best album yet...their most
melodic release, and their most psychedelic release, and they do it without
losing the fuzzed-out doom riffage that made them so satisfying in the first
place" BROOKLYN VEGAN
"BLEAK, BEAUTIFUL" REVOLVER
"it's punchy and accessible, joining the bludgeoning
fuzz guitar of Windhand's nominal genre with melodies that recall the best of
'90s rock radio" SPIN
"Windhand's Most Gripping Record to Date" BANDCAMP
"sound more strongly beholden to late '80s and early
'90s grunge in addition to the band's signature touches of weighty psych
rock" STEREOGUM
"New Doom Classic" CVLT
