Portland sludge metallers RAVINE sign to Ripple Music for debut album release on June 20th; first single "Deliver" streaming now!

Portland, Oregon masters of crushing sludge metal RAVINE announce the release of their debut album "Chaos and Catastrophes" on Ripple Music, and present a neck-breaking first track with "Deliver" streaming exclusively via Doomed & Stoned!

 

 

👊  Get crushed by Ravine's new single "Deliver" right here  👊

 

"This band is extremely brutal." Jimmy Bower (Eyehategod, Down)

"These gentlemen are dedicated to a supreme level of heaviness that stands on the shoulders of Endtyme-era Cathedral and YOB’s first demo." Nathan Carson (Witch Mountain)

"About everything you could dream of in gritty, hard charging, down-to-earth doom metal band." Doomed & Stoned

 

 

Formed in 2018 amid Portland, Oregon’s chilly haze, Ravine emerged from the shared vision of guitarists Nico Schmutz (Robots of the Ancient World) and Justin Morgan (SkullDozer), who bonded over their love of heavyweights like Down, Corrosion of Conformity and Eyehategod. With a handful of riffs in hand, they swiftly rounded out the lineup with drummer Matt Amott (Wölflaut) and bassist Dylan Wills (Brick Bath), releasing their self-titled debut EP with original vocalist Daren Ford before his departure in late 2020. In March 2022, Ravine found their new voice in Paul Dudziak (Mammoth Salmon), setting the stage for their next chapter.

 

Fresh off a January 2024 session at Wrong Way Recording with producer Rob Wrong, Ravine is ready to deliver their whiplash-inducing blend of hardcore sludge metal and doom blues and prove their seasoned chemistry with a lineup that punches well above its weight. Their debut album "Chaos and Catastrophes" will see the light on June 20th through Californian heavy label Ripple Music.
