Anciients — artist information

Anciients unfurl a sonic tapestry, each riff a gnarly rootsystem tearing through concrete, each percussion blast a fissure cracking open the earth. Their performance is less a show and more an event horizon, a gravitational pull of dense, churning guitar work that swallows the room whole. The air thickens with a hazy, metallic aroma as the grooves dig in, leaving the crowd with a collective head injury from the sheer force of their colossal sound.

Genres: progressive metal, stoner metal.
