Desert Storm new single and album announced on HPS Records!

UK sludge metal unit DESERT STORM share first track off "Buried Under The Weight Of Reason" album, out March 6th on Heavy Psych Sounds Records.

UK sludge metal powerhouse DESERT STORM have signed to Heavy Psych Sounds for the release of their awaited new full-length "Buried Under the Weight of Reason". With their latest body of work ""Buried Under The Weight Of Reason", Oxford, UK's heavy pillars Desert Storm carve out a sound that is as primal as it is progressive, melding sludge, doom, and heavy metal weight with moments of softness, space, and surprising vulnerability. Across these nine massive-sounding tracks, the band summon the wilderness, ceremony, and chaos of the human condition, pushing their sound into new territories while staying true to their instinct for heaviness.

About the new single "Shamanic Echoes", they say: “Ceremonial in spirit and tribal in sound “Shamanic Echoes” pulses with bass-heavy foundations and thunderous toms, its downtuned guitars bending into hypnotic sludgy cadences. The middle passage drops into jazzy syncopated territory, before swelling into an earth-shattering crescendo—cause and effect climax and release. Lyrically, the track is steeped in ritual plant medicine and ancestral vision-quests: peyote mescalito and sacred smoke opening the gateway to higher states of being. It is both a hallucinatory trip and a sonic initiation.”

Desert Storm are a formidable force in British heavy metal. Hailing from Oxford, England, the band formed in 2007 and have since carved out a reputation for their genre-defying blend of stoner, sludge, post-metal, and doom. Now, 19 years deep into their journey, they remain impossible to pigeonhole—constantly evolving, yet unmistakably Desert Storm. If you’re drawn to titanic riffs, intricate sonic textures, and vocals that balance ferocity with raw emotion, Desert Storm deliver that and more.

Their forthcoming album, “Buried Under The Weight Of Reason”, is the highly anticipated follow-up to 2023’s acclaimed "Death Rattle". Released worldwide via the renowned European label Heavy Psych Sounds Records — home to legends like Pentagram, Bongzilla, Conan, and Mondo Generator — the record marks a bold step forward for the mighty foursome.
