Bentrees Sign to Argonauta Records; Two of Swords out This Fall

Posted in Whathaveyou on June 16th, 2021 by JJ Koczan

Sardinian two-piece Bentrees have signed to Argonauta Records and will release their second album, Two of Swords, later this year. No art or real details as yet, but the news here is they’re a new pickup for the label, which after slowing its pace somewhat in terms of acquisitions owing to recent existential disaster — maybe you heard something about it? — seems to be back on track despite the apparently-universal vinyl pressing concerns. I’m telling you, kids. CDs are the way to go. Less fragile, better sound most of the time, can print anything you want on them and even make them in different colors like an LP if you want. It’s not an argument I’ll ever win, but it is one I enjoy having, child of the ’90s as I am.

Speaking of ’90s kids, Bentrees have that look about them as well. And dig breaking out Pater Nembrot as an influence. Right frickin’ on. The duo’s debut, Psychollage, came out in 2017 and you can hear that below. Mostly longform, big fuzz jams, doing just fine through headphones thank you very much. Will look forward to the follow-up.

BENTREES Signs With Argonauta Records For Release Of New Album

BENTREES, the heavy psych and power stoner rock duo hailing from Sardegna, Italy, has inked a worldwide deal with Argonauta Records for the release of their upcoming, sophomore studio album.

The band’s sound is a vibrant mix of fuzzy power blues and hard rock influences, drawing from the 70’s wrapped in the glory of 90’s and early 2000’s stoner rock; BENTREES creates a wild ride of addictive and heavy riffage into psychedelic wonderlands. They have been continuously looking for an authentic and genuine formula, often represented by introspective lyrics, a reference to their homeland and connection with nature. Following the band’s 2017- debut, Psychollage, and countless live shows with acts such as Yawning Man, Black Rainbows, The Cosmic Dead, The Spacelords or Pater Nembrot, the duo will release its second album, entitled Two Of Swords, in the Fall of 2021 via Argonauta Records.

“We are really happy to announce our collaboration with Argonauta Records. This is an important step forward for us and we’re proud to be part of a label that includes a lot of important artists on its roster!” The band comments.

“Our new album “Two Of Swords” is made of six heavy rock tracks; it tells about duality in its multiple forms and it opens up some new musical paths for us. On this sonic journey, heavy riffs and pounding drums meet psychedelic landscapes, each song tells a story that somehow has ambivalent contours.”
