US heavy and dark rock wizards SPIRIT MOTHER premiere their compelling new single “Veins” taken from their upcoming sophomore album “Trails”, due out on September 13th via Heavy Psych Sounds Records.

It’s not every day you come across a sound like Spirit Mother – a blend of grungey vocals, swirling guitars, throat-shredding screams, and violin strains.” – Everything Is Noise

About “Veins”, bassist and vocalist Armand Lance says: “From beyond the blood Struck trail through the muck and flood. An Occupation. Veins is a three-legged chair. A minimalist nightmare scenario of atonality balanced with an undercurrent of melodic lines through the violin and vocals. One chord progression with a few variations. Nothing is in it that doesn’t need to be there.”

The undeniable next chapter in the band’s creative process, “Trails” brings the energy of Spirit Mother‘s visceral, all-in live performances while expanding on the sensibilities of their debut album “Cadets”. The darker tonality, heavier, fuzz-fueled riffs, and relentless rhythm section accompany prolific structures and arrangement. The violin summons a brooding, atmospheric pedestal for the remaining power trio to wield with fervor. Lance’s haunting vocals and stark lyricism intersperse the instrumentals with a melody as dynamic as it is accessible. It is the culmination of road-worn years in pursuit of the art, and the moment-to-moment adrenaline of studio exploration. Stream their previous single “Wolves“!

Spirit Mother is a heavy rock band with their sound anthologized through a folk-informed and classical lens: their dynamic and imposing wall of sound, coupled with a driving backbeat, grips through atmospheric strings and haunting vocals. Initially from Long Beach, CA, the band relocated across the United States, now residing in Buffalo, Los Angeles and the high desert of Eastern Oregon. Formed by vocalist and bassist Armand Lance and violinist SJ, their line-up has since solidified with the addition of guitarist Sean McCormick and drummer Landon Cisneros, providing a striking sound described by The Obelisk as lush and ranging, a “languid grunge blasted into outer space in the desert night“.

Lead singer and songwriter Armand Lance creates the bones of the music in the attic of his rural ranch between cattle working and mustang wrangling — a likeness to his father’s upbringing as an Ecuadorian cowboy. The group convenes at this cabin to write and develop their repertoire before hitting the road nationally and abroad. Spirit Mother received critical praise for their first album “Cadets”: “a distinct chance we’ll look back on this as an early gem from a band going places” hailed The Sleeping Shaman.

In 2020, Spirit Mother was tapped for a pandemic project to create a live record/concert film in the style of Pink Floyd’s “Live at Pompeii”. Released through Giant Rock Records and Heavy Psych Sounds Records, “Live In The Mojave Desert Vol.3” was well received by fans and critics alike. “If you didn’t know who Spirit Mother was before seeing this show, there’s no way anyone is forgetting them anytime soon. Brilliant,” stated US website GBHBL.com.

In 2023, the band released their latest single “Locust//Dead Cells” and embarked on their debut European tour with summer festival appearances at Metal Days, PALP and Sonic Blast, followed by an extensive US Tour in the fall. Spirit Mother recently signed to Heavy Psych Sounds Records while in the studio for their sophomore album “Trails”, which September 2024 release will be supported by another coast-to-coast US tour and stops at Desertfest NYC and Levitation Fest in Austin, TX.
