GROAN

I came across GROAN on Twitter just recently, and I'm here to tell you fuckers this is some heavy ass shit! They're easily becoming a favorite of mine and I look forward to hearing more from these UK DOOM merchants in the near future.

Please take some time and check them out on their ReverbNation by clicking their banner to the right in the "Bands To Check" section of this blog. They can be found on Twitter as well, @GROANUK. DOOM ON!!

Bio Taken from the ReverbNation Page..

"At the tail end of 2009, an eighteen year old Riff Wizard wrote and recorded a whole heap of demos. Through the power of the internet, he enlisted Mazzereth (previously of Battlewitch and Trebuchet) to add some MIGHTY vocals. With the additions of Thor's Hammer and the Forest-Dwelling Fuzz Creature on drums and bass respectively, this solo project soon became a fully-fledged band. With each member recording their parts separately without ever meeting each other, Groan's debut album, "The Sleeping Wizard" was released on Doomanoid Records in October 2010 to overwhelming critical praise.

Despite being spread across the country, Groan's chemistry shines through on record as much as it does on stage. To compliment this, the band released a free download only bootleg album: “Live in London” in March 2011.

Unlike other doom bands who are glued to the spot on stage, Groan invite you to bring your dancing shoes to live gigs and leave any notions of taking yourself seriously at home."
