New Zealand heavyweights Sidewinder return this month with ‘Feed the Beast’!

New Zealand heavyweights Sidewinder return this month with ‘Feed the Beast’, their most formidable, swagger-drenched, speaker-rattling statement to date, ahead of the release of their new album Dominion.

Formed in Wellington in 2021, Sidewinder have carved out a reputation for towering riffs, monolithic grooves, and blues-drenched heaviness that has propelled them to the forefront of Aotearoa’s hard rock and stoner scene. Now, with ‘Feed the Beast’, the band step boldly beyond their origins, heralding the arrival of a darker, heavier, and more progressive sound.

Off the back of their 2022 debut Vines and thunderous sophomore album Talons, Sidewinder’s rise has been fuelled by explosive live shows and sold-out support slots with international titans including Orange Goblin and Sasquatch. Their seismic stage presence has proven repeatedly that the band’s live ferocity translates with equal force in the studio.
 
Produced by Tiny Triumph Records and mastered by Will Borza (Deftones, Smashing Pumpkins), ‘Feed the Beast’ captures Sidewinder at full power, blending bone-dry stoner-doom swagger with a swamp-soaked sound that is unmistakably their own.

Their third album Dominion will also usher in a new era with vocalist Jem Tupe, whose commanding presence joins guitarists Ben Sargent and Thomas Rousell, bassist Si Randall, and drummer Grant Lister, elevating the band to a new creative peak. Critics worldwide have already praised Sidewinder’s crushing evolution, calling their sound unstoppable, monumental, unique, powerful, and a gripping reflection of their artistic intent.
 
Sidewinder stand ready to cement their status as one of the most electrifying heavy rock exports to emerge from New Zealand in recent years. Check out new single ‘Feed the Beast’ here and keep your eyes and ears peeled for further developments.
