Tortuga To Release New Album In October

With their 2017 self-titled debut, Tortuga took the heavy stoner and psychedelic doom metal scene by storm. Following their sophomore offering, "Deities" (2020), and a worldwide record deal with rock and metal empire Napalm Records, October 27, 2023 will see the Polish four-piece unleash their third studio album, "Iterations!" A music video the album's first single, "Lilith" can be seen below.

"'Lilith' is a song full of emotions, an evocative journey through love and hate for humanity, a tale that embodies its own time paradox. While crafting this song, we aimed to vividly convey the interplay of these contrasting emotions, not just through lyrics, but also through the very essence of the music.

"The song takes our familiar stoner/doom sound and gives it a fresh twist. You'll catch hints of Type O Negative in there; we're just big fans! We've always been drawn to the raw emotion in their music—the delicate balance between happiness and sadness. With 'Lilith,' we aimed to capture and reflect that same emotional depth without losing our own style. We can't wait to share it with you live!" More...
