Black Doldrums are an emerging force in the neo-psychedelic and shoegaze music scene, known for their heavy, reverberated sound and dark, ethereal atmospheres. The group, based in the United Kingdom, began gaining momentum within the indie music community for their blending of droning rhythms, echoing vocals, and a touch of the post-punk aesthetic. They have crafted a signature style that pays homage to the pioneers of shoegaze and psych rock, yet they push the boundaries to create something uniquely their own.

Their work features a collection of tracks that exude a haunting quality and a sense of brooding introspectiveness. "Dead Awake" exemplifies their penchant for blending hypnotic percussion with swirling guitars, while "Now You Know This" and "Into Blue" showcase their ability to transition from tranquil melodies to thunderous crescendos. The band's ability to captivate through a blend of sonic intensity and melody is further exemplified in singles such as "Sad Paradise" and "She Divine". With their song "Dreamcatcher" being remixed by The KVB, Black Doldrums have also demonstrated their appeal to fellow artists in the genre, hinting at their increasing influence in the broader shoegaze and psych-rock community.
