Lowburn to Release Phantasma Oct. 25

Posted in Whathaveyou on September 11th, 2019 by JJ Koczan

Finnish heavy rockers Lowburn have been trickling out info and audio for their second album, Phantasma, for a while now, including a lyric video for the single “Cloud Valley” that you can stream below, but getting the release date, tracklisting and album art is obviously a big step along the way to the actual arrival. Phantasma will see release on Oct. 25 through Argonauta Records — no preorders yet, but they’ll get there — and boasts eight tracks, one of which has the honor of being called “Urban Funk Campaign.” I don’t know what it sounds like, as I haven’t heard the record yet, but I know I want to find out.

Until then, the cover art is striking in its vague orbital iconography and big-eyes skeleton whatnot, so yeah, dig in. The PR wire sent all all the everything:

Fuzz Doom collective LOWBURN, featuring ex-members of Battlelore, reveals full album details!

Phantasma coming this October on Argonauta Records!

After Battlelore went on hiatus, Tomi Mykkänen and Henkka Vahvanen formed a heavy fuzz rock and doom fusion, Lowburn, in 2012. The Finnish music collective and heavy sounds veterans have been hard at work for their forthcoming and hotly anticipated full length, which will be seeing the light of day on October 25th with Argonauta Records!

Phantasma is featuring eight fuzzy, hard rocking, punkish to heavily psychedelic tracks, that will invite you to a trip into a universe of diverse soundspheres. Earlier this summer, Lowburn shared a first single to the track Cloud Valley, listen HERE!

With a pre-order to start soon with Argonauta Records, Lowburn have announced to not only share many more details plus tunes, but also upcoming live dates with us soon. The band released a critically acclaimed debut EP back in 2013, followed by a split-7″ with fellow band Church of Void to date, live shows of Lowburn have been rare so far. Finally, the Fall of 2019 will see them return to the scene, a news that will surely make every stoner punk and doom rock- heart beat faster. Stay tuned for many more news to be revealed in the days ahead!

Lowburn Post Lyric Video; New Album Phantasma Coming Soon

Posted in Whathaveyou on August 7th, 2019 by JJ Koczan

Finnish bruisers Lowburn announced last year that their second record would be out earlier in 2019. Well, so maybe not. But there’s plenty of year left, as the calendar tells us, so they’ve still got time to issue what has been dubbed Phantasma, the follow-up to their 2015 debut album, Doomsayer. The full-length, still in progress, it would seem, will see release through Argonauta Records, whenever they get there, and though specifics on that are sparse, new music is better than release dates, and Lowburn have some of that to show off and no fooling. The track is called “Cloud Valley” and they’ve got it up on Bandcamp and as a lyric video on the YouTubes. They’re also promising tour dates in the works, though it’s hard to imagine that won’t be a 2020 kind of deal by the time they get there. I might speculate the same for the album at this point, but one never knows, I guess. Especially when the one is me. I never know.

At least not until the PR wire tells me:

LOWBURN (feat. ex-members of BATTLORE) return with brand new record during 2019 & unleash lyric video!

Finland’s fuzz rock doom fusion, music veterans Lowburn, have announced to return with a brand new album during 2019 with powerhouse label Argonauta Records. Formed in 2012 by Tomi Mykkänen and Henkka Vahvane after Battlelore went on hiatus, Lowburn are currently putting the final touches on their upcoming, hotly anticipated full length. The band released a critically debut EP back in 2013, followed by a split-7″ with fellow band Church of Void, finally the doom and stoner rock scene will see their long-awaited comeback!

Today the band is already sharing with us a first glimpse, and released a lyric video for the song Cloud Valley. Dive into some new Lowburn tunes right HERE!

“Cloud Valley was the first song done for the new album.“ Guitarist and vocalist Tomi explains. “It’s a part of the “punk”-series of our songs with Running On Fumes (first LOWBURN song ever) and The Last One meaning that the working title had punk in it. Using Cloud Valley as the first single will give the fans a feeling of familarity but it still it showcases the overall sounds for the album. It has the rocking, the psychedelia and heavier parts. Overall it’s a good first single and an invitation to listen to the diverse musical journey PHANTASMA is.”

While Lowburn are currently hard at work to finish their upcoming album, the band has announced to get on the road in support of Phantasma,too. Stay tuned for further news, a touring schedule and more new sounds to be revealed in the days ahead!
