Komatsu – Savage
Eindhoven Rock City is in full swing! After the An Evening With Knives new video yesterday… We get more Eindhoven heaviness today! We had the pleasure of breaking bread with the Komatsu boys a few days ago. And after our second serving they hit us with the new video for Savage as desert! Inspired by the death of their tour buddy Tom Davies. Inspired by the meaning of life. And death. Both lyrically and visually on screen…
Two singles out: title track A Breakfast For Champions and Savage. One more single before the release day of the new Komatsu record A Breakfast For Champions through Heavy Psych Sounds on April 11th.
PR Wire:
Dutch stoner rockers KOMATSU release new video off upcoming album "A Breakfast For Champions", out April 11 on Heavy Psych Sounds.
Eindhoven-based stoner and sludge rockers KOMATSU present the second single off their new studio album "A Breakfast For Champions", to be issued on April 11th via Heavy Psych Sounds.
👊 Rock out to Komatsu's "Savage" video at this location 👊
About the song theme, the band explains: "The loss of friends that leave much too soon. Searching for purpose and meaning in life, leaving a ripple in the pond. Inspired by the death of our tour buddy Tom Davies (Nebula)."
"A Breakfast For Champion" is the follow-up to 2021's "Rose of Jericho" and their first outing as a three-piece. As expected with the Eindhoven trio, skulls will be crushed at full force by this sonic sledgehammer... however, the 8-tracker also showcases a more melodic and stripped-down facet from these bearded gentlemen. To cut it short: becoming a trio hasn't taken anything away from their pulverizing grit and even adds some extra chemistry and breathing space that takes their sound to higher levels!
So strap in and brace yourself for another assault of monstrous grooves, a hefty meal served with lots of bravado to start a new day — the day when Komatsu confirmed their reputation as one of the heaviest and coolest bands in the stoner/sludge crossover scene. And once you've caught every blow, straightened every twist and managed to hit every turn, you realize you've just been served a breakfast for champions. Don't miss the debut single and title track "A Breakfast For Champion"!
KOMATSU "A Breakfast For Champions"
Out April 11th on Heavy Psych Sounds (LP/CD/digital)
In 2010, the sky ripped open above Eindhoven Rock City. Four musicians came thundering down, surrounded by ferocious-looking thunderbolts and the roar of a thousand gods. Their mission? Scorch the earth with a brutal mix of sludge, stoner and metal. Komatsu was born with the surefire determination to never look back.
Over the years, Komatsu have released an EP and four albums, refining and perfecting their earthquake-inducing low-end rumble and grinding, ear-shattering signature sound. It hasn't been left unnoticed. Quite the contrary. Their unique approach unabashedly destroyed the stoner community by way of bulldozing both fans and press to smithereens, resulting in opening slots for bands like Truckfighters, Karma to Burn, Clutch, Nashville Pussy, High on Fire, Corrosion of Conformity, Brant Bjork and Baroness, while also infusing the after party of Queens of the Stone Age's show at the Effenaar in Eindhoven with a highly addictive cocktail of sweat and gasoline. High-profile European tours with Duel, The Freeks, John Garcia and Mondo Generator followed, the latter of which completed a personal challenge set out by the band and fulfilled a big dream: sharing the stage with all original Kyuss members.
2025 sees Komatsu present their fifth album to the world, once again released via premium European stoner and doom label Heavy Psych Sounds Records.
KOMATSU is:
Mo Truijens - guitar, vocals
Martijn Mansvelders - bass, backing vocals
