Primeval Transmissions

by Breath

supported by

Gregory A bass/drums duo for this genre is such a good idea that I'm surprised this is the first time I've seen it. That being said, these guys more than deliver on the promise of the sonic pallet they offer. I've never heard anything so hypnotic, and listening to it is quite an experience. At one point it felt like my whole head was vibrating. I can't wait to listen to this again! Highly recommended! Favorite track: Evocation.

fuzznautdoom Crushing bass tone and towering drums. Breath constructs a heavy, droning, and atmospheric journey enveloping the listener to a meditative headspace. Perfect for turning on and tuning out. Favorite track: Battle for Harmonic Balance _ Halls of Amenti.

Heddbuzz (I.R. Puffinstuff) Hold it in, Hoover lungs. These fresh & potent nugs harvested and cured by (HIGH) Desert Records? Very nice....more tape releases please. Favorite track: Dwarka.

Steve Rodger Absolutely loving this... Favorite track: Battle for Harmonic Balance _ Halls of Amenti.

Justinuff This record can be used as a tool to jam the cogs of time, and as a vehicle for introspective travel. Obliterating borders and dimensions, journey into the mind. Breathe slowly and savor every Breath. Favorite track: Observer.

Outlaws of the Sun
outlawsofthesun.blogspot.com/2021/01/breath-primeval-transmissions-album.html?m=1

For fans of Om, Grails, Yob, and Sleep.
A psychedelic journey delivered by thunderous bass and explosive drums. Meditative Doom Metal creating a sense of forward momentum that builds.

Breath is a one of a kind duo from Portland Oregon. Made up of a rhythm section that goes back to 2001.

The music is informed by adventures leaving the comforts of what was known behind. Going into unknown woods sometimes figuratively and some literal.
With heavy melodically driven grooves their Meditation Doom will take you to secluded caves,and totemic vision quests.

about

Breath Portland, Oregon

Breath’s performance is filled with an atmosphere of spiritual waveforms, shaped by Eastern practices and philosophies and much more. Their approach hits with the precision and depth of a well oiled machine, filling the air with a sound that isn’t normally heard from a 2-piece band like this. Their uniqueness puts them in the same realm along modern bands heavy, wise and mighty such as Eagle Twin. ... more

Forget the Wild West. With more swagger than John Wayne and more badassery than a handful of Clint Eastwood’s, this is the West where scorpions have six stingers and snakes don’t rattle, they fuckin shake. An epic tectonic plate of lung filling, gritty determination that will bleed your emotions dry in its arid wind. Justinuff
