"Lamniformes — the songwriting project of multi-instrumentalist Ian Cory (Gabby's World, Bellows) — kick off "I Have Been a Flame" with a muscular fuzzy bass line that's not too far removed from the Stoner Witch classic "Night Goat," yet twists and turns within the track, along with a crooning vocal that recalls Josh Homme, give it a character all it's own. To call it stoner/sludge would be accurate yet also reductive, but to call it interesting would be on point.”

Lamniformes has its feet in two worlds. Informed as much by Cory’s experience in the Brooklyn indie rock circuit as by his love for the sounds of sludge and post-metal, Lamniformes is a band that defies easy categorization. Picture Old Man Gloom writing bedroom pop, or Mount Eerie on a Neurosis binge. The project’s newest release, Sisyphean is both heartbreaking and head-banging, an achingly beautiful collection that combines melody with soul-crushing distortion.
Lamniforme’s newest LP, Sisyphean, is being released by Furious Hooves on March 15th, 2019. Preorder, here.
