Unearthly Trance

Unearthly Trance was a New York-based sludge/doom metal trio that pummeled eardrums from 2000 until their initial breakup in 2012, with occasional activity resurfacing later. Known for their apocalyptic sound blending crust punk ferocity with psychedelic doom atmospheres, the band featured Ryan Lipynsky (guitar/vocals), Jay Newman (bass), and Darren Verni (drums). They built a cult following through relentless touring and releases like 2008's "Electrocution" and 2010's visceral "V", both showcasing their signature blend of murky riffs and hypnotic misery. Their discography evolved from raw, primitive beginnings to more nuanced explorations of darkness, culminating in 2015's "Stalking the Ghost" before entering periods of sporadic activity. While not mainstream stars, they remain revered by doom enthusiasts for their uncompromising vision and earth-shaking live shows.
