Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree Sign to Magnetic Eye Records; New Album Later This Year
So, you know who really likes Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree? Me. I do. The German heavy psych rockers have signed to Magnetic Eye Records to issue their third album sometime later this year and well, I think that’s great. The label shows an adventurous side while remaining consistent in picking up bands who take familiar genre characteristics and make them their own, and for the band, they join an international roster of talent that includes Domkraft, Brume, Caustic Casanova, Ruby the Hatchet, Witch Ripper, Oceanlord, High Priest and Besvärjelsen. Don’t look now — actually do — but Magnetic Eye are very clearly building a roster not only with today in mind, but the years to come as well. Having an act like Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree, whose sound is based in jamming but broadens from that foundation, is not going to hurt that optimistic future.
And while I am a little sad to know that the next Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree album exists and I haven’t yet heard it, I’m stoked to know it’s on its way and look forward to diving in when the opportunity presents itself. One way or another, I’ll have more to come as we get closer to whenever the release date actually is. Mark your calendars for ‘not soon enough.’
From the PR wire:
BEES MADE HONEY IN THE VEIN TREE sign with Magnetic Eye Records
BEES MADE HONEY IN THE VEIN TREE have penned a deal with Magnetic Eye Records. The German psychedelic doom four-piece will release their third full-length via the label later this year.
BEES MADE HONEY comment: “We are proud to become a part of the Magnetic Eye family with so many impressive bands on their roster”, drummer Marc Dreher writes on behalf of the band. “This is the next step on our journey, and we are looking forward to all the great things to come!”
Jadd Shickler welcomes BEES MADE HONEY: “Some of the best music comes to us through friends, colleagues, and occasionally through other bands on our roster”, the Magnetic Eye director explains. “Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree got on our radar courtesy of Domkraft. Therefore it’s hardly a surprise that they share an affinity for spacious, post-apocalyptic heaviness that moves from delicate to brutal in the course of winding passages. This is the label’s first official signing of a German artist. As we are fans of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Year of No Light, and with Domkraft being one of our flagship artists, we couldn’t be more excited to welcome Bees Made Honey to the label. And I swear, their upcoming album is utterly transcendent!”
BEES MADE HONEY IN THE VEIN TREE were founded in the German city of Stuttgart in 2014. With all four members having gown up since childhood and coming from an academic background, the band had a clearly defined goal right from the start: to contrast crushing doom metal riffs with the spheric sound of post- and psychedelic rock. This is emphasised by reverberating vocals that recite metaphorical lyrics and float through beautiful and heavy sonic spaces.
BEES MADE HONEY laid down their musical template with the debut album “Medicine” in 2017, which provided the solid foundation of their ever-evolving sound. Their sophomore full-length expanded the sonic horizon through lower tunings, densely layered effects, more faster passages, and harder vocals. The Germans also started performing live at home and abroad to continuously growing audiences.
Currently, BEES MADE HONEY are preparing for there release of their third album, which will be out via Magnetic Eye Records later this year.
