News : Melbourne sludge band Merchant stream first track from debut “Suzerain”
After a brief early listen of the debut from Melbourne “psyc drenched sludge” band Merchant, we can attest to the fact it’s an absolute monster. Suzerain may only be 4 tracks but it still reaches the 50 minute mark with “Seed & Soil”, the first track below, being the shortest.
The album was recorded at Goatsound studios (always a good sign!) with Jason Fuller and mastered at Iridium Audio by Dav Byrne (Agonhymn, YLVA), and is out on Apil 18th through Bandcamp.

April 23rd @ Tote Upstairs, Melbourne
w/ Stonegrave, Dankenstein, Rust in Piss and Bush League
