2020/09/10

Hundred Year Old Man’s music combines post-metal with an intense wall of sound delivery that’s devastatingly effective. Drone and ambient elements are included, with synths and electronics playing a notable part in the band’s sound which have won them many plaudits across the international metal scene. The Leeds based sextet are busy completing songs for a new release and it was a great time to catch up with Owen to reflect on the formation of the band and look forward to their plans in 2021.

Major shout out to Brian O'Glanby who did a fantastic job filming them. They have also signed up with Overdrive management and UK based booking agent Lost Island.

Elder Druid came out of 2019 as one of the best Doom/Metal bands in Ireland. They launched their critically acclaimed Golgotha to a jammed packed Voodoo Room in Belfast in January, tour dates were booked and a vinyl pressing done of 250 albums; so it would be fair to say the lads were ready to take it to the next level until their momentum suddenly ground to a halt with the COV-19 pandemic.
