Band Biographies: Epic Down

Epic Down is a duo from Leipzig, Germany dedicated to the sluggish grooves and lumbering riffs of sludge & doom. Founded in the pandemic turmoil of the year 2021, by Mitzschi (guitar(s)/bass) and Fabian (drums/vocals) to musically express the deeply felt horror about the excesses of the established abysses of a consumerist civilization with pronounced destructive traits and a reality marked by war, disease and destruction, and to preserve it as a defining sound of this so-called turn of the times. Influenced by primal doom, drone and stoner, the sound of EpicDown is mainly characterized by solid downtempo grooves and rolling walls of guitars, complemented by slightly melancholic vocals. With the release of their first EP "Equinox Pt1" and it’s sequel "Equinox Pt2" in 2023, which were only available in a digital way, the band stepped into the light of publicity. After signing to Argonauta Records the band decided to celebrate that deal with an album with almost new material. With the release of „Days of Oblivion“ they now ring the bells of doom again and celebrate the dance on the volcano.
