Doomed & Stoned takes a trip to the land of kilts and bagpipes!

The latest of Doomed & Stoned's critically acclaimed series documenting the explosion of doom metal & stoner rock around the world takes us on a journey through the lowlands and highlands of Scotland!
The country's Gaelic name is Alba (pronounced "Al-eh-ba") and it's worth noting the ancient tribe that settled it were called Caledonians -- an old word that means "hard" or "tough." You can hear that age-old rough 'n tumble spirit reflected in the rock and metal of Scotland, especially, which they aim to explore in Vol. 35 of their compilation set, out Tuesday, March 23rd, 2021 as a free download on Bandcamp.
According to Doomed & Stoned’s editor in chief BillyGoat, there'll be plenty to discover in this series, with nearly 40 bands featured -- including the classic rock outfit IRON CLAW, founded in 1969. Joining them are some of the scene's heaviest hitters, the list of which can be found below (in the lowlands of this article (don’t laugh, I just woke up and even I know that was a bad pun)).
BillyGoat went on to say: “As with past volumes in the series, we hope you’ll find your next favorite band in the process, and learn more about the vibrant nature of the scene at large. Scotland, especially, has a penchant for story telling and epic narratives in its music.”
Doomed & Stoned in Scotland (2021) is out now and available for streaming or download at: https://doomedandstoned.bandcamp.com.
