Damian Murdoch Trio Signs With Prosthetic Records

Prosthetic Records is excited to announce the signing of the Damian Murdoch Trio, which the label describes as an "instrumental experimental heavy blues rock outfit."

Referred to as Black Sabbath meets Hendrix meets Scott Henderson (Guitar Mania), the Berlin-based trio combines elements of hard grooving heavy blues and experimental fusion with headbang-inducing, riff-laden, heavy rock and roll.

Formed by Australian transplant Damian Murdoch, best known for his work with progressive metal group The Ocean, the trio’s current line-up also includes bassist Harry Stöckl and Micheal Posch on drums.

The Damian Murdoch Trio released debut album, “Electric Tentacles,” in 2013. The band’s sophomore effort is due out later this year; stay tuned for more details.

“We’re totally excited to be working with Prosthetic,” says Murdoch. ”We’re currently knee-deep in the writing process for our next record, which is shaping up to be quite heavy so far. The plan for this one was to write the dirtiest, filthiest record possible, so we’ll see where we end up.”
