Bio

Very raw, doped up cult band from Japan. Throughout recent years the band built up quite an underground reputation amongst fans of more "stonerish" and sludge Doom-metal. The band's raw and guttural sound leave you feeling like you have just been run over by a steamroller. The music is definitely heavy as a brick! If you're into band's like Grief, Burning Witch and even Electric Wizard, you should check this band out.
