Swan Valley Heights Announce New Album Terminal Forest
German heavy psychedelic rockers Swan Valley Heights will release their new album, Terminal Forest, March 31 on Fuzzorama Records. The Munich-based trio made the announcement and posted the cover art on socials, which is pretty standard, and the label followed up by making it the headlining feature of their ‘Fuzzletter’ — it continues to amaze how versatile the word ‘fuzz’ is, never mind the practice of fuzzing out itself — which is fortunate, since it makes the information less subject to the winds and whims of the algorithm, tyrant of our days as it is.
There is no audio yet public from Terminal Forest, or private for that matter, at least in my case, but I was fortunate enough to see Swan Valley Heights play in Stockholm at the first night of the Truckfighters Fuzz Festival #3 (review here), and that was a joy. The band toured north to that fest with fellow Munich natives Colour Haze, which is a suitable pairing highlighting not only the serenity in Swan Valley Heights‘ sound as well as the harder-hitting stretches that offset. In 2022, Swan Valley Heights also toured with Greece’s Stonus on a run I’m proud to say was presented by this site.
When it arrives, seemingly on March 31, Terminal Forest will be the band’s first outing since The Heavy Seed (review here) in 2019. Not that long, considering, but a welcome return nonetheless.
