SINGLE PREMIERE
Buzzard - Disunion
Buzzard. Our very own heavy underground town crier... The doom troubadour, the one who continues to deliver universal truths in a way our little niche deserves. His music drifts out of the twilight, carried on woodsmoke and echoes of forgotten hills. And his way of preaching continues in grand form on the new album Hush Now. To be released on October 16th. But right here, right now, we’re honored to present to you the lead single of that new album. Out tomorrow, it’s the opening track and first opening statement: Disunion!
Disunion rumbles like classic metal rolling down those hills, rooted in the weight of doom and is filled with the enduring soul of folk. A song, translating those restless nights, when the world feels heavy and the truth is hard won. Shadowed melodies, minor moments of respite, walk hand in hand with those earth shaking riffs. It’s the old bard’s simple lyrics though, which cut like old wisdom and sting of lived experience. And as on the rest of the album, there is anger here, but it burns like watchfire rather than wildfire. Warning and illuminating. Impossible to ignore. Music for wandering hearts and weary spirits alike, the ones that howl beneath the moon, share glasses of bourbon, and wait for those beacons everywhere to be lit. Or Disunion is simply here, as the rest of Hush Now, to remind you that even in dark times… There’s someone sill singing the truth…
We’re honored to present to you…

Buzzard - Hush Now
Scathing, revolutionary doom folk from Massachusetts
Fourth LP “Hush Now” out October 16th, 2026
Lead single "Disunion" out August 7th
Genres: Doom metal, folk rock, americana, stoner
Buzzard presents its 4th doom folk metal LP installment Hush Now, expanding on the one-man band's trademark blend of heavy fuzz guitar, Americana instrumentation, and socially relevant songwriting. From mellotron to mandolin, Sabbathian riffs to Dylan-esque wordplay, H.P. Lovecraft to Bill Hicks, Hush Now is the fullest expression yet of Buzzard’s unique artistic vision.
Following the success of the politically charged 2025 EP Everything Is Not Going To Be Alright (expanded to a 10-song LP earlier this year), Hush Now broadens its scope. “Disunion” delivers a state of the union address to the void above. “Fireball” is an ode to the music of America. “Knock on the Door” laments the plight of the pawn. “Contaminate, Consume” reveals the purpose of humanity’s finite tenure on Earth.
The 10-track LP has been mastered for vinyl by MixCave Mastering with original art by Indonesian artist Bintang Pratama. As bonus tracks the CD version of Hush Now adds the 6 singles released in 2026, including “The Bombing Will Continue Until There’s Peace,” “Cinderella’s Midnight Surprise,” and “Hillbilly Fuckery (Original version),” all remastered for digital in a digipak featuring additional artwork by Doomolith. EP Everything Is Not Going To Be Alright will also be released on cassette by Doomshire Tapes on August 7th.
But wait, there’s more! Also coming 10/16 is a 7-inch pressing of “Hillbilly Fuckery (Extended WTF International Choir Version)”, wherein over 50 Buzzard fans contributed recordings of themselves saying, “What the fuck?”
An apocalyptic lullaby for the absurdity that is 2026, Hush Now suggests that everything, in fact, is going to be alright. As the album’s penultimate track “Take Comfort” proclaims:
“One fine day, the Sun will burn this wicked world away/I take comfort from the fact the Sun will explode some day."
