Forcefield Metal 2 Artikel

In the almost year and a half since Forcefield Records released Yautja’s immensely lauded debut LP Songs of Descent the band has been an unstoppable touring machine. Logging a nearly inconceivable amount of miles traversing the U.S. and Canada’s vast maze of roadways, the band has completed two separate U.S. tours with the likes of Cult Leader (Deathwish) and Inter Arma (Relapse), a Canadian run with No Brainer and a handful of shorter stints with Black Breath, Mutilation Rites, Theories, Set And Setting and others. The band’s unique take on heavy music sounds at times like an early Mastodon jamming with His Hero Is Gone - earthy sludginess with hammering blasts and crushing, technical riffage. Yautja’s growing stature as one of extreme music’s most compelling and hardworking new bands is wholeheartedly well deserved.Colored Vinyl

Richmond, VA may be known primarily for its wicked thrash and crust punk scenes, but there's something evil lurking within that doomed old capital. Psyched-out ultra-Sabbathian amplifier worshippers Windhand, who boast ex-members of heavy riffters Facedowninshit and Alabama Thunderpussy within their ranks, have risen. The response from the press and fans alike has been immense. Cvlt Nation's review insists, "Windhand takes apocalyptic blues, puts it into a punk bong, lights it with a sabbath lighter and exhales rad clouds made out of fuzzed out bliss...Windhand are way more than a band that you should be on the look out for, they are group of humans that will change the way your hear doom."
