5 years after ‘Horde‘ (2018), Swiss indie/sludge rockers The Crotals are thrilled to release their third album, ‘CONJURE‘ on CD, LP & Digital via Argonauta Records and Cold Smoke Records.
The Crotals lay claim to rock and roll, but they also are especially fond of taking side roads. ‘Conjure‘ can therefore be understood as a sum of diverse experiments and confluences in the long run.
Through eleven rough songs, the band deliver an odd indie/sludge recipe, driving ears from doom/sludge melancholy to the edge of punk/hardcore blades, demonstrating a real pleasure in cracking the « metalsound » cliché.
The two screamers give ‘Conjure‘ a peculiar tone, enhanced by a volley of metal, rock, and rap guests who erect a wall of heavy, agressive, and gloomy tracks.
In addition to the official release-news of the record, the band also shared the whole effort for FREE STREAMING Bandcamp.
