Anciients (2014)
Vancouver, BC
Serpentine riffs and otherworldly howls anchor Vancouver’s Anciients, who’ve risen from the metal underground like a white-hot phoenix. Following their critically acclaimed debut, Heart of Oak, the (now) well-travelled band has plundered the hearts of beardos everywhere. Combining the progressive sonic journeys of Opeth with the hurly burly of High on Fire, this’ll fulfill your need for heavy.
