The debut album of the Swedish doomsters STONEGRIFF "Prologus Magicus" will be released on August 30th. With a vintage sound, which is both heavy and dark, organic and vivid, their debut brings crushing riffs to die for, and vocals with a wide rage and so much charisma that is really hard to come by nowadays. Their music is relatively simple and therefore effective - this band gets straight to the point. As mentioned in the post in which we announced signing STONEGRIFF, they could be best compared to KRUX, while it's rather obvious that their main influence are the forefathers of the genre, BLACK SABBATH... and we are confident that fans of TROUBLE, PENTAGRAM, CANDLEMASS, NOMAD SON, SPIRITUS MORTIS and LAS CRUCES will dig them too. STONEGRIFF follow in the Doom Metal forefathers' footsteps, keeping things old school, straightforward and HEAVY.
The clip features scenes from "The City of the Dead" ("Horror Hotel") movie from 1960.
Three songs off the album, "Black Magic Circle", "Mercenary Bay" and "Impossible", are available for streaming from our Bandcamp player on the STONEGRIFF page and on "Prologus Magicus" release page on our website.
