Marijannah Sign to Cursed Tongue Records; New LP Coming Jan. 2020

To answer your first question, yes, the new Marijannah album is done. It’s in the can, it’s got six tracks. To answer your second question, no you can’t hear it. Well, not apart from the single “Bloodsucker” that they posted in August. That you can hear. The rest, you’ll have to wait for, and in fact, they’re not even going to tell you what the record is called yet. Oh it has a name, but you gotta wait to find out what it is. And when you catch first wind of the low-end lumber they bring in “Shapeless,” you’re going to want as much information as possible when it comes to how to own such a thing.

Today begins that process. Marijannah, who made a right-on-right-on-fuck-yes debut with Till Marijannah (review here) early last year on Pink Tank Records, have signed to Cursed Tongue Records for the vinyl release of the title-TBA sophomore outing. That’ll be in January, like the headline says above, but they’ll have it out sooner via the ol’ interwebs in streamy/downloady fashion, just in time to screw with all your year-end list action. Take that, and yes, you will.

You’ll find the announcement below from Cursed Tongue, whose taste only continues to become even-less-fuckwithable as each signing passes.

PSYCHEDELIC STONER DOOMERS MARIJANNAH SIGNS TO CURSED TONGUE RECORDS FOR WORLD WIDE VINYL RELEASE OF THEIR SOPHOMORE ALBUM LATE JANUARY 2020

Cursed Tongue Records is very happy to announce the signing of Singapore based quartet Marijannah and look forward to unleash the band’s new tunes onto an off guard audience of heavy-tunes-craving stoner skeleton mob.

If fuzzed-out, bass-heavy, psychedelic stoner doom anthems is the thing that rock your worn-out van, make your eyes go all wet and make your bongwater bobble then Marijannah will have you covered in loads with their brand new to-be-named album. Because, why bother with an album title when you have riffs and grooves so addictive that they completely submerge you and makes you forget who you are and whether you have eaten or not.

Although this is just Marijannah’s second album the band members aren’t exactly new to the music scene and if such a thing as a Singapore heavy rock supergroup exists, it might as well be it. Featuring members of grindcore fanatics in Wormrot and pop punk band The Caulfield Cult we find Marijannah deeply rooted within the Heavy Underground. Root and stem indeed encrusted in metal and drenched in dank-smelling stoner sensibilities.

Marijannah exhibits on their new album a cohesiveness of sound and sonic depth that isn’t found often in the genre. The four band members also allow the songs to evolve organically, each section moving seamlessly to the next one, leaving the listener mesmerized by the astral-hazed journey he/she has been taken on over the course of the entire album.

The spellbound-like, trance-induced state of mind is abruptly brought to a halt at the end of the last track and the listener suddenly finds him-/herself left alone on an abandoned and icy-cold planetary star somewhere in the far outskirts of cosmos. An itching notion to press repeat and once more indulge in the warm, fuzzy sounds emanating from the glowing inner of Marijannah’s core is impossible to suppress – and you shouldn’t, really!

With its weed-infused, stoned-to-the-bone aesthetics Marijannah drives the nail on the head and certainly got its own addictive, sleepy-eyed charms. Comes highly recommended FFO Goatsnake, Sleep, Acid King, Uncle Acid, Salem’s Pot, Monolord and Black Sabbath.

Marijannah’s new album releases digitally on Bandcamp and all common streaming outlets in late November/ early December 2019 and based on the reception of the first single “Bloodsucker”, we expect a fair amount of buzz by then. It is therefore with much joy that Cursed Tongue Records can roll out the red carpet and give this stoner doom monster of an album a dire needed vinyl treatment.

We open the doors for the tangible pieces of space debris late fall/early winter with a slated vinyl release late January 2020. Pre-order details will be unveiled soon. More info, details and dates as we approach the witching hour!

Marijannah is:
Rasyid Juraimi ~ Guitar, Vocals
Nicholas Wong ~ Drums, Vocals
Nicholas Ng “Skinny”~ Guitar, Vocals
Muhd Azri Azman ~ Bass
