Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth Streaming New Song "Lava"

With the imminent unveiling of the self-titled debut from Seattle doom visionaries Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth now less than one month away, today Decibel Magazine heaves forth opening track "Lava" for public ingestion. Listen in through the player below.

Fronted by guitarist/vocalist Tad Doyle, Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth is a trio of longtime rock rebels featuring Doyle alongside veteran bassist Peggy Doyle and drummer Dave French (The Anunnaki). Not surprisingly, the threesome's forthcoming long player summons some of the gnarliest sounds from the blackest depths of the Pacific Northwest.

Relays Doyle of the debilitating resonance of the record's opening hymn, "'Lava' was originally inspired by a Native American folklore story that talks about Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier, both active volcanos in the Cascade Mountain range spanning Washington State and Oregon.

"The story in short; 'Where little sister goes, big sister follows,' with 'little sister' being Mt. St. Helens and 'big sister' being Mt. Rainier. Native culture and geology records have mentioned that these eruptions happen every four-hundred or so years. Rainier is well overdue. This song is basically a tribute to the force and natural powers that lay within the region and what an eruption would look like through the eyes of the life that surrounds the region."

The "Brothers Of the Sonic Cloth" album was captured at Robert Lang Studios and Doyle's own Witch Ape Studio in Seattle, Washington and mixed by Billy Anderson (Sleep, High On Fire, Melvins et al). The album will be released February 17th, 2015.
