 The Pillarist

“Astrakhan deliver astutely crafted metal with a stoner/sludge backbone and hints of heavy metal and progressive metal swirling within the marrow.” – Metal Observer

 “Well crafted, rewarding songs that showcase some phenomenal melodies, thoughtful musical structures and pounding sonic passages.” – Echoes and Dust

“Western Canada is in the midst of quite a metal boom as of late, especially Vancouver, and Astrakhan is the latest to attract attention. Cut from the same cloth as Kylesa, [they] serve up a confident combination of sludge, prog, and garage rock” – Adrien Begrand (Decibel) 

 “For a band that has only been together a couple years, the chemistry is incredible. They’re already crafting their art in such grand fashion that before long they’ll be forcing the bands now considered influences to up their game.” – Matt Hinch (Hellbound.ca)

ASTRAKHAN BIO

Born out of years of failure, frustration and stifled creativity is ASTRAKHAN. The band has emerged as a unique force, landing somewhere appropriate yet conspicuous within a thriving Vancouver metal scene that warmly embraces its sludge / doom / stoner and riff laden heavy metal.
The music is meticulously composed while maintaining the grit and ferocity that has come to define their live performances. No chord is redundant, no riff is repetitive, no progression is without purpose. The contrasting styles of their two-headed vocal attack serve as a definitive element. The urgency behind their music is palpable, and the final product is undeniable. ASTRAKHAN has built a loyal following based on nothing other than the quality of their craft and the intensity of their live shows. The sense that something meaningful is upon us grows stronger with each new song conceived and venue conquered.
