Slomatics

Slomatics is a band hailing from Belfast, Northern Ireland, known for their heavy and mesmerizing sludge/doom metal sound. The band formed in 2004, carving out a distinctive niche within the metal community through their colossal riffs, thunderous drumming, and an atmospheric blend that borders the realms of psychedelic and space rock. Their music often bears a weighty presence, driven by down-tuned guitars and a sheer wall of distortion that can envelop the listener in a dense, sonic fog.

Over the years, Slomatics have built a reputation for their crushing and hypnotic live performances, which complement their impressive array of studio recordings. The band’s discography showcases a dedication to exploring the depths of their genre, with releases like "Canyons", "Futurians: Live at Roadburn”, and “Totems” standing out for their otherworldly soundscapes and inventive approach to metal. Slomatics continue to be lauded for their relentless pursuit of heaviness and monumental, riff-centric compositions, as evidenced in more recent offerings such as "Strontium Fields" and "Voidians". Their work not only resonates with die-hard fans of doom metal but also entices those who appreciate the more experimental and abstract fringes of heavy music.
