DYING VICTIMS PRODUCTIONS is proud to present EARLY MOODS\x27 striking debut mini\-album, Spellbound, on CD and 12 vinyl formats. Hailing from Los Angeles, EARLY MOODS formed in 2015 as an amalgamation of various experienced acts such as Rude, (ex\-)Skeletal Remains, Fortress (California) and Nightmare (USA). From the beginning, the goal was simple yet sturdy: to pay homage to such classic bands as Candlemass, Witchfinder General, Pentagram, Trouble, and the almighty Black Sabbath. However, it wasn\x27t until 2020 when the band\x27s first recording appeared, originally self\-released digitally on April 20th. Bearing the evocative title Spellbound, form surely meets content here, as EARLY MOODS entrance the listener with molten grooves and bewitching atmosphere; this is tried\-and\-true HEAVY DOOM that doesn\x27t step past 1980! Naturally, traces of the aforementioned influences are tastefully spread across the 27\-minute record, but each of its five component songs convey an alluring, addicting identity that\x27s entirely their own. Not for nothing are EARLY MOODS monikered as such, for their aeons\-old aura and doomed\-out swagger bespeaks an impossibly eldritch aspect \- precisely, the kind\x27s perfect for proto\-doom and its eventual genesis into traditional doom. Darkly colored with sulfurous leads that\x27ll ruin your day, EARLY MOODS dare you to gaze into their crystal ball and become Spellbound!
