Detroit up-and-coming doom metal trio TEMPLE OF THE FUZZ WITCH unleash their crushing new single “Bow Down” on all streaming platforms. The song is taken from their third full-length “Apotheosis”, to be released on April 5th through Ripple Music.
Stream Temple of the Fuzz Witch’s new single “Bow Down”
With sledgehammer riffs and lyrics as bleak as a Michigan winter, blackened doom outfit Temple of the Fuzz Witch brings a unique take on the doom genre, their nightmarish sonic vision being raised to another level with frontman Noah Bruner’s jaw-dropping balance of crypt-worthy growls and astoundingly grunge-styled clean vocals. Never darkness has felt so magnificent and compelling, and their aptly-titled third album “Apotheosis” has everything to put the mighty trio on every doom metal fan’s radar for years to come. Stream the album’s debut single “Ashes“!
The album was recorded and mixed by Pete Grossman at Bricktop Recording, and mastered by Chris Fielding at Skyhammer Studio. Its artwork was created by Sarah Fazriah and Zoro (Mysteriousfour).
Launched in 2017 with a 3-track EP, the Detroit three-piece has successively released two albums: “Temple of the Fuzz Witch” (2019) and “Red Tide” (2020). Temple of the Fuzz Witch is now set to unleash the beauty of its unique occult-driven nihilism with “Apotheosis”.
About the album, the band says: “The lyrics and concept are more overt and less cryptic than the previous Temple releases. Everything is bigger, heavier, and darker. Rather than making just another doom record, we wanted to do something that stepped outside of the box a little bit. Established fans will still find catchy riffs that are staples of doom but will be surprised with some new twists on the genre, with the introduction of blackened vocals and some more up-tempo tracks. Lyrically, the album is deeply rooted in the esoteric and spiritual. We came with a very introspective mindset, and each of us was able to add a little bit of our soul to it. When people hear the lyrics and music together, they will find something fresh but dark to connect with.”
