Chosen by Monk

This ethereal doom-gazing trio address the subject of the disembodiment felt by relocation with this, their first new music in four years and the first taster of their upcoming fourth album, their first since relocating from their native Oregon to the bustling metropolis of Los Angeles:

Speaking on the track, singer Sunny Faris shares:

‘Heavy, Why?’ Is a lyrically light and instrumentally heavy arrangement that cryptically but intentionally speaks to the experience of being disembodied and poses the question, simply, of: “Why? Why is it such a hard, lonely, agonizing and heavy experience to be turned away from Self?” 

  • The album, ‘Not Here Not Gone‘ will be released on 30 January via Suicide Squeeze Records.
  • Blackwater Holylight tour in May, appearing at Desertfest and then playing headline shows in Newcastle, Glasgow and Manchester.
