Plow

Since 2009, PLÖW have made noise in the Danish underground with a myriad of livegigs and 2 EP’s. Now the band ready to release the debut album “No Highness Below The Crown”. Get ready for a “…gut busting mix of low slung doom metal and stoner groove with a pissed off sludgy attitude!” It rumbles and roars in the Danish underground PLÖW plays groovy heavy-stoner-sludge. The sub-genres are many, but the only thing that matters, is how these guys put everything on the table. All of their sorrows and victories being emitted through their epic guitar riffs, the dirty bass, the beaten up drums and the angry vocals. PLÖW are four young men, who live and breathe the heavy music. It lies deep in their bones, which you can tell from the honest passion both live and on the recordings. The first two In 2010 PLÖW released their first self-titled EP with 6 tracks. The EP contains the tracks "Only Sideburns Survive Nuclear Wars (part 1) and (Part 2)". It was the first time, but not the last time, we got to meet The Plöwman. This way of linking songs together became a tool for future songwriting. In December 2011 they released their second EP, "Bicentennial Picnic". This EP harvest many good reviews from both foreign blog sites and Danish medias. Doommantia.com gave them 9 out of 10 and wrote: “Bicentennial Picnic is easily one of the more noteable end-of-the-year stoner metal releases from an up-and-coming stoner metal band." The EP contains four tracks including the YouTube single “High Tide”. A rusty plow in the practice room PLÖW is pronounced "plow", with a silent umlaut, following the tradition from other bands in the heavy rock genre. An old rusty plow has actually found its place in the rehearsal room, which has given inspiration for both music and lyrics. From this rusty tool The Plöwman was born. He is an invincible character who appears in many of the lyrics and is also a big part of the band's visual expression. The musical and lyrical universe are ranging from heavy doom sludge-metal compositions to groovy stoner rock with lyrics about everything from doomsday scenarios and human sorrow to freedom and heroism. The debut album “No Highness Below The Crown” is a concept album. Both music and lyrics take inspiration from the duality in life’s heavy issues. Good and evil, life and death, love and hate, sorrow and triumph. One thing confirms the other. This duality is also used, in the way the album was recorded. The first half of the record is recorded in the summer 2012, which is reflected in the heroism and more positive energy, but yet still angry stoner sludge metal. The other half was recorded in the autumn, where the mood was more somber and the sound more doom and dirty. This record is PLÖW’s heart and soul, as they have sacrificed blood, sweat and tears on this "first-born" full length. "No Highness Below The Crown" will be released August 12th 2013 as vinyl, CD and download in Denmark and the rest of Europe. A DK-and European tour will follow up the album release. A Danish/Icelandic four piece sludge-metal-stoner-rock band.
