When i was lost in the rocky mountains i chose to listen to this album until my phone battery ran out. I gave up; and this is all i wanted to do. It made me very happy. $20k for search and rescue, and im still here, in love with doom [and fuzz]
@@arturgrzenkowicz5750 yea? You think fuel and all is free or something? When you're trillions in dept you can't be doing "free healthcare" and "free search and rescues"
Absolutely fantastic.....im turning 50 soon and there are so many creative and talented bands ...i hope I live to 100 just to enjoy it all Light into dark just smokes!
Same here. Nearing 50 Gen Xer feeling lost AF in the modern music scene. Then all of the sudden, this "metal" surfaces and I'm like, "where have I been?" Thanks for bring "rock" back!
@@cliffrockalliance9071 ...right on man! Corporate radio is a joke...this style is right in my wheelhouse...i can get totally lost in this stoner/doom/sludge mix Playing slow and tuned wayyyy down is the new cool!
me too man or better am 46 and i listen read about and buy music whenever i can since am 13yo........................even tough choosing an LP among the thousands is always really difficult especially considering i like punk hc metal reggae and hard rock stoner doom music in all their sub genres and specifities. best
*Halcyon* Would you die to keep me out? Cold black dragging under I guess it's not working out Dead and dreaming of the water I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would Would it kill you to be here I guess I have seen it coming Won't you suffer through the year Dead and dreaming of the water I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would Now I hear you in my head Walking to the gallows Is that where you've always been? I won't mind it if you hang around I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would I wish you would
My recent tattoo artist ley me play her Acid Mammoth's latest album during my appointment and she reccomended me this band. Getting another tattoo in a couple weeks
Love this band! Just imagining Beavis and Butt-Head's blabber while they watch a video of Halcyon..."She wishes us Wood, Beavis- uh-huh-huh...hmm-hmm yeah Butt-Head...Beavis, "Let the Wood rise" hmm-hmm-uh-huh-huh Yeah that's COOL, these people rock man!"
I'm hearing it for the first time and the very first thing that came into my mind was: "Nirvana!?". Unfortunally it bothers me a bit. I already had my fair share of Nirvana when I was a teen lol.
Probably one of the first to say this in a comment. But Channel 33 RPM brought me here. I'm glad I watched that episode. I usually take my sludge in small doses, but this stuff his highly melodic and I'm really digging the singer. Especially since you can understand what they are singing. Kinda reminds me of Alice in Chains or Stone Temple Pilots but with a really sludgy sound. Will definitely be buying this on vinyl asap.
I cannot get enough of this band .They need to release an akbum every day! I have always loved the juxtaposition of an impossibly heavy or brutal sounding band with the fragility and overwhelmingly connected to the earth sound of a woman's voice. The band being powerful in a physical way and the vocals powerful in spirit and soul. Thank you Windhand for putting your music into the world.
Listened to three songs. Bought this album cover band shirt on the website. No regrets. Trying to see them live now, gonna have to get up to TN in September!
from all those sabbath-esque bands that have emerged in last decade or so, I like yours fuzz the most. looking forward to see you live this summer, cheers!
Just re-visited this album after only really liking First to Die and Grey Garden. Finished loving nearly every song and only just realising how much Eyeshine is the bomb
great album, I also like how they mix it up have less heavy songs like Pilgrim's Rest (which sounds like it could be an Elliot Smith song), that makes it more than just an 'Electric Wizard-core' album which is a trap many bands in the doom genre fall into, fortunately Windhand has its own sound and identity.
If you enjoy the more mellow Windhand songs you need to go track down Dorthia's two solo albums, 2015 & 2023, (both on TH-cam) they're absolutely fkn incredible, especially the first S/T one. Not an electric guitar in sight. The girl (she's around my daughter's age) is truly gifted. And this reco is coming from a boomer who normally listens to the most extreme underground black and death metal. I just have a soft spot for Windhand. This one's great, and their first three albums are just as great.
I remember playing with them at a small club in Maryland, a doom festival, right when their first lp came out. Nothing has changed, masssssssive sounding, catchy, perfect. Windhand > cough
Was listening to Crowbar and this album started playing. I'm 3 songs in and i love it. It has a 90s feel and a little Dax Riggs so far on track 3. I needed this... Edit: I thought there was a little Nirvana in it too. Track 9(feather) confirmed it for me!!
They should be called Witch-hand, or Windhand in the purple sky, or Windhand and The Octarine sound of the Goddess, because their music is true Magick!!!
First time listening on a recommendation from a Brother. Great stuff, I definitely need to check out more. Favorite bands are anything from Mike Patton, Devin Townsend, Melvins, Napalm Death, Yob and Neurosis mostly.
Dude, like my mom and I, we made this pedal, and it glows in the dark if you spin it counter clockwise when you play Candyland.... in the nude. It's a distortion/fuzz hybrid.
i was listening to Ritual Knife by Uncle Acid when this album popped up in my recommendations too. haven't listened to Windhand before but I'm halfway into the album and I'll definitely listen again. 👍
Arik Roper's artwork, nice! Released by Relapse. That rings my bell. Does anyone like Solitude Aeturnus, a Doom Metal band from Texas? I think you might like their newer albums. I prefer their first two albums. Eyeshine song sound alot like S.A.
I like the little red dot that tells you what song it's on..neat!
Yes, this is GREAT!
not now when menstruating..
Very nice touch, even though an album like this needs to be listened to throughout.
microdots tells me what is neat!
Neato!
I will NEVER get over the fact that after brain surgery and weeks in acoma this album was one of the only things I could remember ❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌
lobotany and true veggies😊
Today was the first day i heard Windhand. This was meant to happen.
Look up live from elsewhere or the covid live stream concert
Canon event
it was today for me :)
When i was lost in the rocky mountains i chose to listen to this album until my phone battery ran out. I gave up; and this is all i wanted to do. It made me very happy. $20k for search and rescue, and im still here, in love with doom [and fuzz]
Wait, in the States you actually have to pay for your search and rescue?
Artur Grzenkowicz Yep. Great place right.
@@arturgrzenkowicz5750 I dont have to "pay", technically.. its just that, my credit score goes down........
@@arturgrzenkowicz5750 yea? You think fuel and all is free or something? When you're trillions in dept you can't be doing "free healthcare" and "free search and rescues"
@@Tysandifer that's actually shocking for us Europeans to hear
Man i been stuck in the 90’s for so long I never knew there was this whole world of music hidden under all the shit. I gotta lotta catching up to do.
Same here; now to immerse myself in clouds of "FUZZ"
bahaha saaaamme
you won't find the good stuff on the radio, that's for sure
uncle acid and the deadbeats - blood lust
Enjoy the ride!!
Absolutely fantastic.....im turning 50 soon and there are so many creative and talented bands ...i hope I live to 100 just to enjoy it all
Light into dark just smokes!

@@wadeguidry6675 i've searched a long while for another Wade on youtube.... Pleased to meet you. But....... There can be only one!
@@thathandleistakentrythisone : pleased to meet you too. If you want to be the only "wade" that's cool. I'll change my name to Weighed.
*Halcyon*
Would you die to keep me out?
Cold black dragging under
I guess it's not working out
Dead and dreaming of the water
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
Would it kill you to be here
I guess I have seen it coming
Won't you suffer through the year
Dead and dreaming of the water
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
Now I hear you in my head
Walking to the gallows
Is that where you've always been?
I won't mind it if you hang around
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
I wish you would
Endless groove drumming, pretty and jaded voice, C Standard Gibson/Rickenbaker full fuzz riffs & Arik Roper artwork... This album is dope!
I love the grunge motifs in this album especially the snare fills!
My recent tattoo artist ley me play her Acid Mammoth's latest album during my appointment and she reccomended me this band. Getting another tattoo in a couple weeks
Good u have the money to do that
Sounds like the start of something beautiful😍
Love this band! Just imagining Beavis and Butt-Head's blabber while they watch a video of Halcyon..."She wishes us Wood, Beavis- uh-huh-huh...hmm-hmm yeah Butt-Head...Beavis, "Let the Wood rise" hmm-hmm-uh-huh-huh Yeah that's COOL, these people rock man!"
I can imitate Beavis's voice perfectly and near-perfect Butt-head, and yeah.. that works... except they don't know bands are people.....;)
@@KelticKabukiGirl I think you should really watch their reviews again. See it is not Beavis or Butt-Head speaking. It is the opinion of Mike Judge.
Dude... That's spot on EXACTLY how they'd say it
honestly one of the best albums I've ever heard...and I've heard a lot of records
Can't argue with that, well written and well ordered. The last and 1st songs are total bombs like they should be.
me too however Janes addiction.
The Fuzz used in this album is perfect
It is a pity that these bands are now hard to find. Only found it over Jack Endino wikipedia discography. I fucking love this 90s feel.
Listening to this while watching Genndy Tartakovsky's PRIMAL... Epic..
It's like they took all the best elements of Black Sabbath, Nirvana, and Pink Floyd and made it a band.
I've been telling people for years "Windhand songs are all basically Nirvana's "In Bloom" meets stoner rock"...you get it!
@@thetreeofwoe2304 I see the nirvana elements in it too and in all doom metal tbh. it can be quite grungy and vice versa
Your Nirvana reference is dead on. In fact, the producer of this album is Jack Endino, the same guy who produced "Bleach" and "In Utero."
I'm hearing it for the first time and the very first thing that came into my mind was: "Nirvana!?".
Unfortunally it bothers me a bit. I already had my fair share of Nirvana when I was a teen lol.
Feather gives meajor nirvana vibes for some reason. Also Alice in chains.
Sweet,they are playing this summer in Denver!!!
When i die bury me in fuzz
*smoke
SAME
mood
What sorcery is this!
Yes sir!
Fuck this shit rips so hard I can’t get enough of this band. Really hope to see them play.
Atmospheric, Dark, Beautiful, Heavy, Sludgy, Yeah this is a Great Album..!!!

fragility seems like the wrong word
Right 👍
Yes, like Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard.
@@wickedcrone3636 The intention behind the words guides me towards "tenderness" rather than "fragility".
one akbum, please
Im obsessed with the first track. Its absolutely rocking man. Been repeating it for days now. Solid rock.
My whole county is on lockdown due to COVID-19, might as well get blazed and listen to some sweet fuzz.
Yea try most of the world
This album has been a daily listen for me. It's absolutely fantastic. Doom riffs and gorgeous vocals, I love this album 🤘🤘
Same here, this album helps me those weeks through my studies for exams ahah. I really enjoy the massive song of the drums. Awesome album and band.
Listened to this everyday since release
This and the new yob are amazing! the more i listen, the more i like them
Secrets of Lost Empires ritgteous my slow burnin brother!
Zarthix Creation cdedd
Accidentally selected this somehow from a Bongripper album, and obviously this was a textbook happy accident.
There's so much in it of everything you ever liked about Melvins, Dead Meadow, Fu Manchu or even Nirvana 😉❤️
Oh my gods.... this is a masterpiece of divine proportions.
yes it is
absolutely... they nailed it on this one aaaand it was even really promising on their first release summon the moon etc... pure doom love
Can def hear the grunge influence but also 90s post-metal at times. And dooooom, of course.
So much more soulful than most doom bands. Like she's actually heard a Muddy Waters record before. The soul sets them apart from the pack.
Yeah, Nirvana and AIC vibe pops out all the time. But I wouldn't compare it with Doom, rather with Stoner. Nice band.
And I think there is some Shoegaze too.
Perhaps that could be tied to the producer, a genius, a sound smith above all other sound smiths.
Dopethrone brought me here, and I love it 🖤
One of my favorite bands and one of the best bands i've seen live. Sound ridiculously massive
It's like type O, sleep, stasera, and kyuss had a love child. Excellent
and your comment is a child of youtube's stupidty and cliches
found this randomly on youtube, bought the album that night
I really want to see this group live, excellent quality.
Dude I’m so glad I discovered this band 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Listened to three songs. Bought this album cover band shirt on the website. No regrets. Trying to see them live now, gonna have to get up to TN in September!

Right?
I love you Windhand.
one of the best vocals ive heard in a long time.
Ever heard of Kylesa?
Baroness??
I remember playing with them at a small club in Maryland, a doom festival, right when their first lp came out. Nothing has changed, masssssssive sounding, catchy, perfect.
Windhand > cough
Cough >> Windhand
This is a great band. WINDHAND kills!
Blasting,blazing, crushing , smashing- all in a good way!

all slap
It hits different on mushroms. It's like an energy wave that lift you and spits you out in another galaxy
this is pretty cool. had some high on fire playing while i was cleaning house and this started playing, really like it
The only female fronted band I LOVE 🤘🤘
HELL FUCKING YEAH!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Smoking mother ...i cant get enough of this , the perfect blend ....encore !! ..
Love at first sound.
Dude, like my mom and I, we made this pedal, and it glows in the dark if you spin it counter clockwise when you play Candyland.... in the nude.
It's a distortion/fuzz hybrid.
dude you're stoned
Gorgeous work
This is a perfect transition from Dorthias new solo album. Came on right after and it’s pretty fitting.
This song sounds like a good doobie smells.....just wonderful.
Yes!
Was Listening to Uncle Acid when this band popped up in the “you may like!!”
The. AI knows me too well!!
Cause this band FKN SLAYS!! 🤘🏻
i was listening to Ritual Knife by Uncle Acid when this album popped up in my recommendations too. haven't listened to Windhand before but I'm halfway into the album and I'll definitely listen again. 👍
Hi Acid covenant
Best album ever.
Massive grooves with vocals like sweet nectar. Reminds me of Acid King.
i like, the sound is very solid, nice voice, the cover remember me a fable. Cool! Good job!
What a great album. It dont matter the genre, its all rock n roll to me!
psychedelic music is the greatest music
😍 Thanks for the share. Listening now!!! Just watched Windhand in KC!!! 🔥🔥
This album makes me want to go on a fantasy adventure
the drums slam so fucking hard
I wish my walls would stop melting 🌛🌜💀
Hahaha melt with them
Has anyone found a fix for this? Seriously asking for a friend :)
My brain is melting
pilgrim's rest is my jam
The Obsessed, WindHand, Pallbearer, and SLEEP!!FTW
Listening to this for what I think is the very first time and seeing them tonight!! Pretty stoked
This is a sick album, love these guys
how do i go from listening to melodys echo chamber to finding this band like wtff im only on track one and i have to listen to more!!!! great find
update THEY ARE FROM MY CITY richmond, va HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THEM
Learn the riff for Grey Garden and you can also play Two Urns, Orchard, Diablerie and Halycon 😂
I think the word that you're looking for is "style."
This album slaps
Been playing this non stop the last few days, fantastic album!!
damn.. thats good. i thought things like that couldn't be released nowadays
Beautiful, I will buy the Vinyl at the next concert.
Windhand + Russian Circles in October, im excited!
Damn, I'm jealous right now.
The 18th!
Tonight!
Fuck... definitely need to go back in time
I'm an AC⚡DC fanatic, and it's possible that I will be an Windhand fanatic, too. Great Band!
This is an incredible album. Start to finish
Awesomeness
🤘
Eyeshine is really something
This album is incredible! 🤘
Arik Roper's artwork, nice!
Released by Relapse. That rings my bell.
Does anyone like Solitude Aeturnus, a Doom Metal band from Texas? I think you might like their newer albums. I prefer their first two albums. Eyeshine song sound alot like S.A.
I'm a big SA fan. I have their debut on vinyl, bought it this year. It was really fucking expensive :D
@@RIUUI007 Yeah, man, one of the best bands ever. How much did you pay for it?
Classic album right here.
