Watch "I Come to Destroy", the Epic New Visual by Oakland Metal Band Vannon
/
Oakland heavy metal band Vannon recently released their end times-themed progressive rock, doom metal-inspired new album "Desert of Our Dreams". Fans of artist ranging from YOB and Mastodon to Gojira and Soundgarden should take note of this release.
Talking about "Desert of Our Dreams", the band says,
“We began like the virus. Our first steps from one body to another in the cold winding of autumn, moving between sleepers. Our old band was suddenly dead, taken by fate to wherever young bands rot, and we were hungry for something new. We whipped out some new songs, repurposed some old ones, took a few pictures on a gray day and reentered our lair to demo what we had. Then the world stopped. The landslide of biological inevitability took our hopes, our bald-faced crying at the sky, our tiny trajectories and pulled out their mutual rugs of relevance. As horsemen of the apocalypse rode in, we made a record, knowing it might be a final document of our time on earth. And so we hammered and honed, climbed and fell, twisted in imagined winds and invoked a presence that lashed us to a beast of wrath. So it emerged, our weird symphony of end-time living, mixed sharp and hallucinogenic, undulating and folding in on itself while exploding outward. Now it's yours.”
Continuing the promotional roll-out of their new album, Vannon recently released a lyric video to accompany their epic, 12-minute track "I Come to Destroy".
“I Come to Destroy” finds the band at their most doom and most psych. It crushes, whips and ever-ascends through a massive multi-genre crescendo. Twelve minutes of sheer, bludgeoning joy.
