Ash Eater – Breathe The Smoke
Self-released – 2024
Rock, Metal, Classic, Doom, Thrash
Rated: ****

Doom thrash by way of classic heavy metal! Yes, now here’s something we can all get crazy with! Get on board this gravy train for it will not only drop you off on every metal station they pass, it will also drop you in on whatever skater punk bowl they might come across! It’s the six track ravenous Breathe The Smoke album by Portland, USA, three Ash Eater! We’ve mentioned their Any Port In A Storm single back in December 2023 on Stoner HiVe and were smitten with that manic side of their metal. And we’re happy to report it’s present on all other six tracks as well. They go big on that eighties vibe, speeding across the Bay Area just as easily as noisily rampaging through something more psychedelic or doom inspired. The trio of skaters, fronted by the bassist for fellow PDX acts LáGoon and Oopsy Dazey, know exactly what their strengths are and how to massage them into your brain. No lubrication at all, they shotgun their foggy and smokey ruckus straight into your bloodstream!
