When Dana Schechter started Insect Ark as her “true” solo project in Brooklyn NY in 2011, she set out to build desolate and hallucinogenic galaxies of sound completely alone. Working solo offered an escape into the deepest realms of self-reflection, dredging and birthing a sonic beast that was utterly unhinged and totally liberating. Focusing on experimental, noise, and avant-garde drone, Insect Ark’s first years produced records that were raw, ominous, and totally unique. While defying comparison, these new sounds possessed Schechter’s distinct musical spirit, found woven throughout her 20+ years of band/collaboration work. Pioneers of "funeral sludge," FÓRN have been favorites of the metal underground since their formation over ten years ago. Fórn play riffs so heavy they feel like they can’t be lifted from the floor, much like bands such as Winter or Conan, but with barbarity rarely this visceral. COMA HOLE is a Stoner/Doom Metal duo from southern Rhode Island. Ironically, their hometown is Westerly. COMA HOLE has been around since 2018 and released their first single for their self-titled debut EP in 2021. Fast-forward three years and their first full-length album, “Hand of Severance,” is due for release on November 1, 2024. It is a gritty, fuzz intensive ride with a stunning vocal performance by Eryka Fir. Drownyard came to existence out of the sheer necessity to create straight up, no non-sense, stripped down heavy music. No gimmicks, no trends, no ulterior motives.
