Scorching quartet capture live set at the House of Rock for
April release on Ripple Music
"Crunchy riffs, melodic vocals, and a stoner attitude,
they come at you like a full-on Harley Davidson storming down the
highway." — ECHOES AND DUST
On April 24, home of all things riff-heavy and rapid-fire
rock Ripple Music will release the new live EP High and Alive from high-octane
San Francisco American metal purveyors THE WATCHERS. Following their 2018 album Black Abyss, the
new EP delivers a searing performance recording of the band laying down their
signature blend of stoner-doom with flourishes of thrash and riff-metal from
across the spectrum of heaviness history.
Recorded live at the House of Rock in Santa Rosa last September, High and Alive
captures The Watchers doing what they do best - burning down the stage with
jaw-dropping musicianship and infectious heavy anthems.
Says singer Tim Narducci, "We’ve always wanted to
record the band in a live setting. The energy and interpretation of the songs
are a bit different every time we step on stage, and anything can happen. High and Alive was an excellent evening of
heavy and in the right setting. We were fortunate to have captured this
particular performance.”
"A burly mix of classic doom a la The Obsessed with
some melodic sludge in the vein of Corrosion of Conformity. It’s heavy stuff,
but with massive hooks and soaring anthems." — TREBLE
"Well-versed in the enigmatic ways of heavy rock,
packing an onslaught of massive riffs and twists that take the listener through
a heady and heavy musical trip." — BLABBERMOUTH
Engineered by Evan Alexander and Harry Gale with mixing and
mastering by Tim Narducci, High and Alive will be released on digital formats
from Ripple Music on April 24th.
