Bentham's Head

Bentham’s Head are a five-piece metal band from Naarm (Melbourne), Australia. A genre-bending enigma perhaps best described as Progressive Sludge Metal, Bentham’s Head weave powerful, narrative driven journeys through their massive sound. Strong riffs and intricate leads carry tracks on unexpected trajectories, traversing elements of Black, Death, Doom and Post Metal, only to drop into swirling ambience and quiet. This contrast is used impressively to create crushing crescendos and engage the listener throughout every track. As if The Ocean Collective infused their progressive song structures with the love child of early Mastodon and the blackened sludge of Conjurer, Bentham’s Head take raw, brutally heavy, yet accessible elements from unlikely places and create a fresh and engaging sound, sure to leave you wanting more.
