release notes:
Portland, Oregon masters of crushing sludge metal RAVINE announce the
release of their debut album "Chaos and Catastrophes" on Ripple Music,
and present a neck-breaking first track with "Deliver" streaming
exclusively via Doomed & Stoned!
"This band is extremely brutal." -- Jimmy Bower (Eyehategod, Down)
"These gentlemen are dedicated to a supreme level of heaviness that
stands on the shoulders of Endtyme-era Cathedral and YOB's first demo."
-- Nathan Carson (Witch Mountain)
"About everything you could dream of in gritty, hard charging,
down-to-earth doom metal band." -- Doomed & Stoned
Formed in 2018 amid Portland, Oregon's chilly haze, Ravine emerged from
the shared vision of guitarists Nico Schmutz (Robots of the Ancient
World) and Justin Morgan (SkullDozer), who bonded over their love of
heavyweights like Down, Corrosion of Conformity and Eyehategod. With a
handful of riffs in hand, they swiftly rounded out the lineup with
drummer Matt Amott (Wölflaut) and bassist Dylan Wills (Brick Bath),
releasing their self-titled debut EP with original vocalist Daren Ford
before his departure in late 2020. In March 2022, Ravine found their new
voice in Paul Dudziak (Mammoth Salmon), setting the stage for their next
chapter.
Fresh off a January 2024 session at Wrong Way Recording with producer Rob
Wrong, Ravine is ready to deliver their whiplash-inducing blend of
hardcore sludge metal and doom blues and prove their seasoned chemistry
with a lineup that punches well above its weight.
Not to be confused with other bands with same name.
