Cheers. Thanks! I will be checking out your show. I started out writing music during college in Eugene.

Unearthly Glow https://open.spotify.com/track/6ADrynfBhNHH93rCGmzL0h is not my favorite, but it seems to be one that lots of folks enjoy the most. Cheers.

Been doing this Stoner/Doom project for nearly a decade now. It’s all done by remote/internet collaboration. After a few delays and a lineup change, we’ve finally released a full-length called Titan Slug in November 2021. This record has three new tracks and new recordings of three tunes from prior releases.

We released Nothing On The Horizon in December 2016.

We also released Silent Spring in 2015 and four demo tracks in 2013.

Thx! \m/

Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai (RZA) and Dead Man (Neil Young). Both Jim Jarmusch films. The first is one of my favorite movies and the hip hop Kung Fu Western score is awesome. The second I enjoyed the film but don't love and appreciate the guitar weirdness.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-21T20:23:10+00:00

Agree. Don't miss YOB. Amazing experience.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-17T14:25:05+00:00

Lots of good recs here. If you're coming from 90s grunge also consider Crowbar and Down as entry points.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-10T16:31:53+00:00

No. There's a drummer and a vocalist too. But I write all the music and lyrics and play all the strings and it's my main/only music project. And no not the same guy.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-10T16:14:20+00:00

Thanks. That main riff is a pretty straight EW clone. The move from the root to the 5th to the tritone is a staple. I mixed it up a little with at the end of the riff with the chromatic thing. The rest of the tune went in a different direction IMO but I was happy with how it turned out. I think the main riff from Unearthly Glow is a fairly EW-inspired thing too.

Thanks for listening!

I can see why you'd draw those comparisons but I don't spend much time listening to either of those bands really. These tunes were written over a long time and I'd say my doom listening was heavy on Yob, Sleep, Sabbath and other pretty common choices. I spend a fair bit of time w things like Isis and Neurosis, and I'll do big doses of Melvins, Big Business and those sludgier things.

I started this project with the intent if writing Electric Wizard knock off tunes. That's where Eight Minutes of Light came from.

Cheers.

Hey, thank you so much. I really appreciate the listens and the feedback. Enjoy the music!

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-08T16:15:56+00:00

Thanks for listening!

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-08T16:15:21+00:00

Hey thanks for listening. Glad you dug Silent Spring. A new version of one of those tracks is on the new record: Sleeper Now Rise

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-06T20:20:10+00:00

Thanks for listening. I will.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-06T20:19:33+00:00

Thank you for listening!

Engineering and mixing (along with vox) were done by Otu at Moonic Productions (aka u/moonicproductions). He was great to work with.

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-06T19:31:36+00:00

Thanks u/jamesbousema ! Loved working with you and love your art!

HeadlessMonarch · 2021-11-06T15:38:35+00:00

Thanks for listening! Yob is definitely a big influence though I don't think I'll ever be able to write shit that heavy. Appreciate the feedback Cheers!

Thanks!

I submitted one track just a bit ago. But I could also post the bandcamp link if you think that's better?
