A powerful mix of hard rock, stoner rock/metal with touches of doom, “The Serpent and the Lamb” is a fuzz-fuelled explosion. In 2021 the band signed with Metal Assault Records to release their debut EP, “World on Fire,” and now the new album marks the next chapter of SEA OF SNAKES’ journey.
“SEA OF SNAKES – taking a mixture of sounds that groove, shake and dazzle from a southern-fried angle that is always catchy” – Dead Rhetoric
Unleashing all fury in a call to arms, the album begins with the high-impact “Start a War” in their exploration of our society that encourages animosity instead of peace. SEA OF SNAKES throw their all into this ferocious track with driving guitar rhythms, soaring vocals and thundering percussion. SEA OF SNAKES thrive in producing dynamic music incorporating and reimaging elements from across the stoner and doom realms. The slow haunting pace of “End of the Sun” manifests the devilishly delightful doom out of the impending gloom. While the smooth and sultry riffs of “Dead Man’s Song” contrast the emotive narrative surrounding addiction and the repercussions of it. “The Serpent and the Lamb” has it all. Full-throttle distortion delivers the heavy throughout “In Hell” which then intensifies ten-fold for “Hands are Tied.” Drawing “The Serpent and the Lamb” to a close, “The Ritual” fuses a melting pot of fuzz and sludge goodness with hard rock riffs and a catchy chorus hook. It’s a thrilling conclusion to this deadly ritual.
These untameable serpents make no apologies in turning it up to eleven. Become immersed in the captivating sounds forming beneath the darkening skies. A drop of blood may be spilled here and there, but “The Serpent and the Lamb” is an experience not be missed.
