German "dope-doom" metallers EARTHBONG present a new music video from the album "Salutations to the Cultivators"!

Kiel, Germany's finest weed metal purveyors EARTHBONG unleash the crushing force of their new video "Bug" exclusively via Outlaws of the Sun today. Their fourth album "Salutations to the Cultivators" lands this October 23rd on The Lasting Dose Records.

Salutations to the Cultivators is Earthbong’s fourth album and their first for Berlin's independent imprint The Lasting Dose Records. Unsurprisingly for a band whose past releases are entitled Church of Bong and Bring Your Lungs, this new record revolves around altered states and the craft of growing weed. "Bug" reimagines Kafka's Metamorphosis as a stoner doom cautionary tale, the debut single "Third Eye" chases another state of perception while high, and "Harvester" and "Herbal Saints" honor the holy plant itself. Earth-shattering riffs collide with devastatingly heavy bass lines, mind-altering solos and the trio's trademark caveman growls.

"'Salutation to the Cultivators' is a line taken from Sleep's 'Giza Butler' track, as the album is meant as a homage, not only to the cultivators of weed but also to the cultivators of the stoner doom genre. As we have started with long-form songs and a more unconventional approach to songwriting and structures, we feel that this is our most accessible album yet," says the band.

Upcoming shows:
24.10 - NO - Høstsabbat Festival Oslo
19.11 - DE - Hamburg, MS Stubnitz
20.11 - DE - Berlin, Neue Zukunft
21.11 - DE - München, Black Mantra Festival 

Hailing from Kiel in Germany, stoner doom trio Earthbong has been heading towards the riff-filled land since the year 2018, unleashing three studio albums, a live album and one EP upon the masses. Earthbong has toured Australia in spring 2025, including headlining performances at Sun Burn Festival and Stoned To Death Fest Sydney, and shared the stage with the godfathers of bong metal such as Bongzilla, Bongripper and Belzebong, as well as landmark acts such as The Obsessed, Unida and Firebreather. With more than 90 shows over the past years, including festivals like ReykjaDoom Festival (Iceland), Stoned From The Underground (DE), Rock in Bourlon (FR) and Hoflärm Open Air (DE), Earthbong earned a reputation as one of the heaviest live acts currently gracing the underground doom scene.
