Houston, TX post-heavy rockers FOSTERMOTHER share a captivating new excerpt off their forthcoming third album “Echo Manor”, to be issued on August 23rd via Californian label Ripple Music.
Long acclaimed by international critics for their catchy take on doom metal, FOSTERMOTHER takes a substantial turn in their career by revealing a more multi-faceted, atmosphere-driven facet of their music on “Echo Manor”. Pushing their elaborate songwriting to new heights by fusing heavy psych with hints of progressive and post-metal, this finely chiseled 10-track is a rich and melody-obsessive journey driven by goldsmith riffing, alluring grooves, and frontman Travis Weatherred’s haunting alt-rock/shoegaze-infused vocals. Don’t miss their previous video for “King To A Dead Tree“!
FOSTERMOTHER is a heavy rock band founded in 2019 in Houston, Texas by multi-instrumentalist Travis Weatherred, quickly joined by bassist Stephen Griffin. The band made an impression within the stoner and doom scene with their massive-sounding 2020 self-titled debut, “ hitting both soft and hard in all the right places, leaving oddly-comforting destruction in its wake” according to Everything Is Noise. Signed to Ripple Music in 2021, the pair released their sophomore album “The Ocean” which reached #20 on the Doom Charts Top 100 albums of 2022.
With drummer Jason Motamedi officially rounding out the lineup, FOSTERMOTHER recorded their third album “Echo Manor”, pushing their sound into heavy psych territory with hints of post-rock and progressive rock. It was produced, mixed and mastered by Travis Weatherred, with an artwork by Kimberly Weatherred.
