Blitzing all ears with their raw visceral energy and Wyatt Bronc’s commanding vocals, the American quintet’s sound firmly sits between the ruthless galloping overdrive and pummeling of High On Fire and the sludgy dual-riffing assault of Kylesa and Restless Spirit, with Tory Jean Stoddard’s keys adding to the album’s all-around heroic vibe. “39 Serpent Power” immediately sucks the listener into a fulgurant and anthemic maelstrom of heaviness, whether you like it fast or slow: you will be forever hooked from the moment you hit play.
Rifflord “39 Serpent Power”
Out June 21st on Ripple Music (vinyl/CD/digital)
International preorder / US preorder
RIFFLORD is a band that defies all logic and its existence alone proves that raw determination and unwavering friendships can accomplish the improbable. With members residing in different parts of the United States and hundreds of miles away, they create a sonic landscape as vast and diverse as the distance between the members. Lugging around massive tube amps, oversized drums, and vintage Hammond organs they exist as if they were thawed from some primordial cro-magnon frost of a forgotten time in rock and roll history. Heavily influenced by the old American West, down-tuned guitars, orchestrated keys and thunderously abrasive drums they leave a mark that both romanticizes the past while beating back against the mainstream.
RIFFLORD formed in 2007 in rural South Dakota and has released only two albums in their existence, (“26 Mean and Heavy”, “7 Cremation Ground”) both becoming cult classics. To pick the name and direction of each album, the band blindly draws a card from the Secret Dakini Oracle tarot deck. Truly leaving fate to determine the band’s artistic trajectory. The band has been able to perform at festivals such as Psycho Las Vegas, Stoned Meadow of Doom, and Stoner Jam. They are a fine tuned live machine with almost two decades worth of live shows and touring.
RIFFLORD is:
Wyatt Bronc – bass and vocals
Douglas Jennings Barrett – drums
Tory Jean Stoddard – keys
Samuel Hayes – guitar
Dustin Vano – guitar
