Dopethrone

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

Dopethrone is a three piece band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Active since 2008, this DIY band encompasses the bleakness of black metal, the steadfastness of New Orleans-style sludge, and a heavier-than-thou doom mentality. The riffs are thick, punishing, suffocating and destructive, with lyrics based in self-destruction, murder, cannabis and sleazy drug abuse.
The band refers to their music as “Slutch”, the canadian term for cold sludge, a.k.a dirty mud snow. They once described it as “frozen sludge, snow covered in crackhead diarrhea, blood, tears and broken dreams”.

After their second release, the band started drawing some attention to them and were invited by Voivoid at Roadburn 2012. They since haven’t stopped growing their audience in Europe, their adoptive land.
Since their formation Dopethrone has released five full length studio albums to date, joined some collaborations with other artists and have regularly toured Europe and Canada.
After a series of massive tours in 2019, the band has not hit the road since, and focused on the “delicate” baking of their new release. The new effort, to be out early 2024, will come with some North America tours and only a handful of European shows.
