Froglord

The Victoria · Swindon

Froglord - 'Since the dawn of time mystics have prophesised the coming of an ancient amphibian, bestowed with deathray vision and ectoplasmic slime. Emerging from deep within the mystic swamps of Bristol (UK), Froglord arise bringing their powerful blend of sludgy grooves and psychedelic doom. With face melting fuzz and foot stomping riffs, Froglord’s reign of amphibious terror has begun.' Oneiromancer - 'SOUTH WEST HEAVY. Incorporating influence from everywhere from Stoner to Black Metal, these boys bring the riff in ways your neck won't be ready for!' Thrakian - 'Originating in Bulgaria and named after the ancient tribes that inhabited the same lands, South Wales–based sludge juggernauts Thrakian will be presenting their debut album The Way. Combining oppressive riffs, melodic weight, and raw emotional intensity, the band channels mythology and personal struggle into a bleak and immersive sludge metal experience.'
