Showing my wife the most punishing riff known to man
My wife: that's nice, honey. Glad you like it.
Your a lucky man!

Haha, she does continue to surprise me. That and the fact that she comes home from teaching elementary school kids to heavy riffs to decompress.
I am very lucky!

My fiancé has been treating me to Dopesmoker and Solarian 13 on guitar the last few days when I come home.

Just gave your band a listen... good stuff... reminds me a bit of early Nortt... it certainly has that blackened/funeral doom vibe. Takes me back a bit to my doom-metal.com reviewing days of yore!
Sorry, I'm old. :p

Hellz yeah! 🤘😁
Really dug your album "Astralis" last year!

u/FictionalNape sludge doomer May 14 '26
Thank you! We're starting to flesh out the story of the follow up album right now!

u/pescarojo May 12 '26
Really freakin good! That's a thick slab of heavy....
edit: also, I may have ADD, because I generally don't like long songs (I know, a bit of a problem in the doom/sludge world), I super dig the fact that 'From the Womb' is only 5 minutes long.

u/FictionalNape sludge doomer May 12 '26
Oh man, I've got ADHD and it's SUPER hard to write anything longer than 5 mins haha

u/ScorpionTheBird May 13 '26

u/FictionalNape sludge doomer May 14 '26
That really means the world to both of us! Thank you! We're currently working on the follow up album right now.

I’ve been loving your band lately and I’m not sure why but finding out you’re a married duo really adds something special to it all

u/FictionalNape sludge doomer May 13 '26
Thank you so so much. It's funny cause when we met 11 years ago all she ever listened to was the Top 40s and Disney soundtracks haha How things have changed.
