OLDE
are a Sludge/Doom?Stoner Metal band from Toronto, Canada. Signed to
ace record label STB Records, who will be releasing their new album
in 2017. OLDE play a modern sounding style of Doom/Sludge/Stoner
Metal where the riffs are interlaced with psychedelic sounds. Doug's
vocals add a certain old-school vibe to their overall sound.
OLDE
have released two stunning releases so far in 2016. Their debut album
I and their latest EP Shallow Graves. Both records show you why OLDE
are worth giving a damn about. OLDE's debut album contains some epic
riffs especially on tracks such as Rise To Fall, Heart Attack and
Changelings. The album has quite a distorted sound that pummels you
into submission.
OLDE's
latest release, the excellent EP – Shallow Graves – carries on
the distorted Doom/Sludge/Stoner Metal magic with 3 new songs for you
to enjoy. The band have even included a superb cover of Motorhead
classic – Limb From Limb.
If
Shallow Graves is anything to by then their forthcoming album on STB
Records could be a major highlight. OLDE bridge the gap between the
classic and modern day sounds we all know and love. If you haven't
listened to OLDE before then this is the perfect opportunity for you
to check them out.
Bring
on the new album.....
