Initially released in 2023, Demons My Friends' debut full-length "Demons Seem To Gather" is a powerhouse blend of drop-tuned grunge riffs, doom structures, soaring melodies, groove-laden rhythms and psychedelic harmonies. Sonic touchstones include Monolord, King Buffalo, All Them Witches and Soundgarden, while their musicianship brilliantly transcends most genre trappings. The album was recorded at Red Nova Ranch in Austin, TX and Soga Records in Jiutepec, Mexico; produced and mixed by Jeff Henson at Red Nova Ranch in Austin, TX; mastered for vinyl by Esben Willems (Monolord) at Studio Berserk in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Demons My Friends have recently signed a worldwide deal with Ripple Music for the release of their upcoming sophomore album in the spring of 2026. Stay tuned for more info!

Out January 16th on Ripple Music (LP/CD)
International preorder - US preorder


"A highly captivating and first rate release." - Outlaws of the Sun

"The trio can bring big riffs as well as surprisingly dense, climactic hooks that help shake up their pacing, introducing drama into their luxuriously groovy pacing.” - Invisible Oranges

"A face-melting mix of sludgy power chords, thunderous drumming, Black Sabbath-meets-Soundgarden/Alice In Chains-like solos and crooned vocals with an expansive song structure." - Joy of Violent Movement

Demons My Friends, whose three members originate from Mexico City, was born during an impromptu recording session at SXSW Festival 2022 in Austin, TX. The concept of their debut album "Demons Seem To Gather" (2023) explores the inner journey its members have embarked on since the onset of the COVID pandemic, confronting inner demons and battling anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and rage, while teaching themselves how to turn these demons into their "friends". Their sound is both emotionally charged and adventurous, mixing raw power with a sense of reflective moodiness, while the lyrical themes often deal with personal struggles, societal matters, and the complexities of human experience with a touch of existential or philosophical contemplation.

As part of the promotion of "Demons Seem To Gather", Demons My Friends provided tour support for Bruce Dickinson and Graveyard in Mexico, and also performed at major festivals like Levitation, SXSW, Mexico Metal Fest and Ripplefest Texas.
