GREEN DRUID RELEASE EPIC PSYCHEDELIC DOOM DEBUT 'ASHEN BLOOD'

Full-Length from Denver-Based Psychedelic Stoner Doom Unit Out Now
Green Druid Weed World Cup Continues
Nominated for 'Best Metal Band' at 303 Magazine Awards
Chosen by Brant Bjork (KYUSS) for Stoned & Dusted Festival 2018 in Joshua Tree

"The perfect jam for any fan of psychedelic doom" - Metal Injection
"The 70+ minutes packed within are chock-full of dense tones, crashing riffs, and a stoner haze so thick the album should come with eye drops" - Heavy Blog Is Heavy


Denver-based psychedelic stoner doom collective GREEN DRUID today drop the planet-rupturing fruits of their weed-infused 'Ashen Blood' full-length via Earache Records.

Hailing from the land of Colorado - the first US state to legalise marijuana - GREEN DRUID take listeners on a celestial voyage through the mind and cosmos with their eagerly-anticipated debut.  With 7 monumental tracks totalling over an hour of mind-altering doom, this epic, THC-laced journey drifts from sublime, ethereal passages through to monstrous, crushing doom riffs, all shrouded in a psychedelic haze.

'Ashen Blood' is available now on digipak CD, double vinyl and limited edition double green vinyl here <http://www.earache.com/greendruid> and on iTunes here <http://bit.ly/ashenblood-itunes>.  You can also hear 'Ashen Blood' in its glassy-eyed entirety at the GREEN DRUID Bandcamp page here <http://greendruid.bandcamp.com>.

"While our first EP - and foray into the world of doom - could be viewed as us learning the ins and outs of the genre, Ashen Blood is where we really started to hone in on our own voice," comments guitarist Graham Zander.  "Taking influence from the dark fantasy landscapes of games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne, we strove to create a truly doomed psychedelic experience."

Rounded out by vocalist/guitarist Chris McLaughlin, bassist Ryan Skates and drummer Ryan Sims, GREEN DRUID have been growing in power from the shadows, ready to unleash it on the world with their full-length debut.

'Ashen Blood' track listing:

1. Pale Blood Sky
2. Agoraphobia
3. Dead Tree
4. Cursed Blood
5. Rebirth
6. Ritual Sacrifice
7. Nightfall

In conjunction with the album's release, GREEN DRUID are hosting their very own Weed World Cup.  Currently underway, the band will be testing out sixteen strains of weed over eight weeks.  Each week, the band will post a video of their "smoke off" between strains at the GREEN DRUID Instagram page here <http://www.instagram.com/greendruidband>.  Fans can vote on their favourite strain via the GREEN DRUID Twitter page here <http://twitter.com/greendruidband>.  The semi-finals will be held the first two weeks of April with the grand finale to happen on April 20th.

GREEN DRUID will play a handful of area performances including a record release show on March 23rd, along with appearances at the Stoned and Dusted and Electric Funeral festivals, with additional shows to be announced soon.

Mar. 23 - Denver, CO - Hi-Dive (Album Release Show)
Apr. 20 - Denver, CO - Lion's Lair
Apr. 26 - Denver, CO - Bar Bar
May 26 - Joshua Tree, CA - Stoned and Dusted Festival
Jun. 29 - Denver, CO - Electric Funeral Fest

Press for GREEN DRUID:

"GREEN DRUID aren't just purveyors of doom; they're also genuine devotees of the genre and its disparate pockets.  And with Ashen Blood, the band is both paying homage to sounds they love and also making an effort to continue the expansion of doom's big tent..." -- Heavy Blog Is Heavy

"Steady, subterranean, and filthy clean, GREEN DRUID duskily flows with the drone of a thousand rusty amps through the cracks and pores of forgotten, ancient crypts... a darkly addictive monster of shadow riffs and deep, earthen tones of sacred blood.  This is doom, and it is mighty." -- Heavy Planet

"...one of the most redeeming records of the year so far... I was fully sold into this whole GREEN DRUID thing once the first half of 'Rebirth' kicked in with its Dopethrone-ing burlap thick riffs, loudspeaker vocals, and crystalline wah-pedal flourishes... Ashen Blood has its own occult allure about it that kept me coming back for a listen... Recommended if you like old Electric Wizard, the first Magic Circle, Ice Dragon, and such." -- Grizzly Butts

"It does not seem at all like a coincidence that GREEN DRUID has been plucked from an emergent underground in Denver, Colorado, to release Ashen Blood on Earache Records.  One of heavy metal's most historically celebrated imprints has a history of landmarks in terms of riffy fare - ... Sleep's Holy Mountain chief among them but by no means the only one; albums from Cathedral, Iron Monkey, Fudge Tunnel, Deadbird and Hour Of 13 come to mind - and even if it's not the style for which Earache is chiefly known, GREEN DRUID represent well the core values of modern stoner-doom idolatry, a nodder like 'Dead Tree' rolling itself forward slowly but not without a fluid drive." -- The Obelisk

"GREEN DRUID is more than just some music; it's an expression of its times and a way to deal with the world for the members involved... You can taste the stoner roots in the full, hazy sound of the band and comparisons to the mighty Trouble are therefore not so strange, though I'd add the great Cathedral to that mix." -- Strange Aeons

"The music is foreboding and enveloping, like hiking hours into the forest and realizing you're a little too stoned to find your way back.  No matter which way you turn, everything is green..." -- Alternative Control

"Embracing sounds that are massive in scale and forcing you to revel in riff after riff, these weed Olympians are going to turn it up until you can't take the sheer volume any longer.  Mysterious and ever growing, this is what doom metal is all about." -- Two Guys Metal Reviews

BLACKBERRY SMOKE RELEASE NEW SONG "LET ME DOWN EASY" FEATURING AMANDA SHIRES

BLACKBERRY SMOKE have released another new track from their upcoming sixth studio album, 'Find A Light', which is set for release on 6th April via Earache.  Check out "Let Me Down Easy (feat. Amanda Shires)" here <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDwuyNJLpDI>.

A soft, folksy ballad about lost love, "Let Me Down Easy" sees Shires lend her harmonies to compliment BLACKBERRY SMOKE's frontman/guitarist, Charlie Starr.  Charlie tells us, "I wrote Let Me Down Easy with my old buddy, Keith Nelson.  We really wanted a cool female voice on it.  I thought it would be really cool to have a female harmony on this song, sort of a Gram Parsons/Emmylou Harris kind of thing, and Amanda came to mind.  Amanda Shires most definitely has a cool voice.  She sings beautifully on it."

'Find A Light' is available for pre-order here <http://smarturl.it/BBS-FindALight>.  You can also listen to another new track, "Flesh and Bone" here <http://smarturl.it/BBS-FleshandBone>.

The band are set to spend most of the year on the road in support of 'Find A Light' (these road dogs often play upward of 250 shows a year), with their first UK appearance of 2018 set for Ramblin' Man Fair <http://www.ramblinmanfair.com> in July.  The band will then return for a UK headline run in November.

HAGGARD CAT RELEASE NEW SONG "GOLDBERG", ANNOUNCE 'CHALLENGER' UK TOUR

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTO5ez1eTDc
Taken from their forthcoming album 'Challenger'
Due out 20th April on Earache Records
Pre-order: http://webstore.earache.com/haggard-cat
UK tour dates in April/May announced


It's a double helping of goodness from Nottingham's HAGGARD CAT today.  They've released another dose of riffage from forthcoming album 'Challenger' in the form of "Goldberg" <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTO5ez1eTDc>.  Plus the Nottingham duo have also revealed the 'Challenger UK Tour' which will see them play 12 shows up and down the country in April and May.

It's actually quite apt that they should release this song on the same day as announcing the tour.  As vocalist/guitarist Matt Reynolds explains, "Goldberg is a very personal song to us.  The lyrics deal with how touring and expectation cause deterioration of mental health and how our perception of ourselves on the road can lead to toxic behaviour.  Although this might sound quite reflective, it's actually a very positive song about being more self aware and pulling through to the other side.  Musically, it's also one of my personal favourites; focusing on the time signature still makes my head spin and I can't wait to get out on the road to play that chorus riff nice and loud!"

He continues to talk about the long awaited tour dates, "We've been keeping these songs under wraps for so long now that we can't believe it's finally almost time to push the album out into everyone's ears!  To celebrate it we're doing a big old-fashioned DIY tour of the UK around some of our favourite venues with some of the UK's best underground promoters.  There's going to be a lot of old friends and new faces alike, not to mention a fuck tonne of riffs in some of the UK's most exciting and energetic tiny sweatbox venues.  It's going to be sick!"

'Challenger' is set for release on 20th April via Earache Records and the duo (completed by drummer Tom Marsh) have already released "Bone Shaker" <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVCzqcrjXh8>, "The Patriot" <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCzm0xPR8jg> and "American Graffiti" <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJtDu2wtAIo>.  These killer tracks have been enjoying national airplay on BBC Radio 1's Rock Show and BBC Introducing, as well as playlisting at Kerrang! TV.  On top of the Challenger UK Tour, HAGGARD CAT have some Rough Trade in-store appearances lined up leading into the album's release and will also be performing at the wildly imaginative Boomtown Fair this summer.

UK IN-STORE DATES:
Apr. 16 - Nottingham, UK - Rough Trade ('Challenger' pre-release party)

THE GLORIOUS SONS COVER "RUNAWAY" BY KANYE WEST

Added to Reading & Leeds Festivals
On Tour Now in Europe - UK Shows Start Next Week
Radio 1 Session Now Live <http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006wq4s>
New Album 'Young Beauties and Fools' Out Now

"...The Glorious Sons deliver big, melodic rock that swaggers and sneers in equal measure." - KERRANG!

"Loving this new single" - Clara Amfo, BBC RADIO 1

"I'm really excited about this band.  The album is SO GOOD!" - Daniel P. Carter, BBC RADIO 1 ROCK SHOW



THE GLORIOUS SONS have released a brilliant version of Kanye West's "Runaway".  The track was filmed at Fiction Studios and is the first of a series of stripped down videos to be released over the coming weeks.

"[Guitarist Chris] Koster is a gigantic Kanye fan and he's been covering the song for years.  We played it in a church once together, and my voice just kind of worked with the song.  I can remember listening to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and watching the short film all the time in university.  It is by far my favourite Kanye album.  I had never heard rap sound like that before.  In my opinion, this album is one of the most important of the 21st century, and Runaway is one of the most perfect pop songs every written." - Brett Emmons (vocals)

Watch the video here <http://smarturl.it/TGS-Runaway>.

The band recently released their phenomenal new album, 'Young Beauties and Fools' via Earache Records.  The band will be bringing their captivating live show back to the UK from next week for three headline shows before returning in the summer for the legendary Reading and Leeds festivals.

"You don't know what you're going to get night to night from us," says Jay Emmons (guitar).  "It's something you have to see - we try to keep it interesting and powerful."  "It's also an inch from either side of falling off the tracks every single night," adds Brett.

The band aired their Radio 1 Rock Show live sessions here <http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006wq4s> with Daniel P. Carter calling the album one of his favourites of the year.  Huw Stephens also named the band one of his Alternative Tips for 2018.

They previously released a video for lead single "Everything Is Alright".  "It's nice getting your hands dirty once in a while.  The video was a quite enjoyable and painless experience, other than getting smashed in the face with tomatoes.  Thank you to our director Colin and his crew for the outstanding work and fun day." says frontman Brett.
