Short bio:

Formed in 2011 and hailing from Slovenia, The Canyon Observer are a five-piece soundtracking your worst nightmares, the magnificent apocalypse upon us, or your traditional Sunday family lunch. It’s all the same. Their experimental sound intertwines delicate and atmospheric passages with a ferocious, in-your-face combo of black metal, noise, post-metal, doom and sludge, and when coupled with impenetrable fog and disorienting strobe lights at a live show, you’re in for a heavy and menacing journey. A visceral journey, no furry kitten can mitigate. After releasing the Chapter 1 (2011) and 2 (2012) EPs, they unleashed their critically acclaimed debut FVCK in 2015, which saw them play on stages all around Europe and even Cuba and share stages with Russian Circles, Rosetta, Gdd Is An Astronaut, Ahab, and many others. Ever-exploring, The Canyon Observer now have something new in store – their sophomore album NØLL sees the quintet delving further into musical experimentation and spiralling downward into the void of human souls and their surroundings. Please, feel free to enter: “It’s there. It’s nothing.”

MEDIA ON THEIR NEWEST RELEASE “NØLL”:
“For this new album, the band haven’t completely left behind their post-metal influences, but the new album amplifies the elements of sludge and doom in their sound, mixes in a variety of experimental textures, and even more dramatically increases, to truly stunning levels, their propensity for inflicting violence.”

NO CLEAN SINGING

MEDIA ON THEIR PREVIOUS RELEASES:

“It’s almost unremittingly intense — as heavy as a pile of corpses, as hallucinatory as a drug-induced nightmare, chaotic, deranged, and powerfully disorienting.”

NO CLEAN SINGING about FVCK

“Pretend for a moment that you discover your new favorite band, they’ve blown your fucking mind with their perfect balance of style and substance, their commitment to crafting sound over pressing the flesh. But shit, now comes the realization you may never catch them live because they’re not traipsing the states in a dented van and you’ll have trouble even finding (or pronouncing) their hometown on a map.”
HEAVY PLANET about Chapter II

“Brilliantly played and produced from the start. I did not know much about this band. However, they are going to become quite well known, as their music is just epic.”
