Following the release of Bone Church’s electric cover of “Fortunate Son” and Kabbalah’s occult and heavy take on “Sailor’s Lament“, the Los Angeles trio HIGH PRIESTESS embraces the darker side of “Bad Moon Rising” with a witchy rendition that interweaves Mariana Fiel’s hypnotic vocals with down-tuned guitars and delicate organs, as the trio lays their unique doom imprint on this timeless Creedence Clearwater Revival favorite.

About the compilation, Ripple Music label founder Todd Severin says: “I chose Creedence Clearwater Revival for our first compilation because I wanted to do something different. I didn’t want to do Sabbath, Lizzy or such because bands have such reverence for them that they would turn in their best take on Sabbath or Lizzy.  I wanted a band with amazing songs, that the bands could make their own, and boy did they.  Plus Creedence Clearwater Revival is rooted in the sludge of the swamp, an aesthetic that plays well to stoner/doom bands. And to really bring out the swamp in the songs, the whole project was mastered by Kent Stump of the legendary swamp rockers Wo Fat.

Founded in 2010 by Todd Severin and John Rancik, Ripple Music is the passion-driven imprint that leading metal magazine Decibel Magazine declared “has made a splash in heavy rock and metal,” and Alternative Control labeled “powerhouse tastemaker“. Metal Injection went so far as to predict, “they may very well be the future of rock and roll”. Known and revered worldwide for unearthing the finest bands in 70s heavy, stoner, doom, heavy rock, the Bay Area-based label is now home to Scott “Wino” Weinrich, Tony Reed, Poobah, Wo Fat, Mothership, Freedom Hawk and many more. Since 2017, Ripple Music has been hosting its own festival events known as RippleFest in California, Sweden, Germany, England and France.
