The Italian psychedelic fuzz trio are back with another round of heavy guitar magic and searing new single, ‘Madras’!

Raise the mainsail and set controls for the heart of the sun; The Cosmic Haze and the Human Race, the brand-new studio album from Italian heavy rock trio Deadpeach, will serve as your soundtrack, saviour and guiding light in 2024.

Since their formation in 1993 in the town of Cattolica, Rimini, Deadpeach have set minds alight across Italy with a heavy and heady mix of late 60s/early 70s psychedelia, fuzz, and hip guitar-slinging hypnosis. So much more than just your average jam band, through various stages of action, in-action, and reaction, they have produced some of the finest psych records to emerge from the Italian underground.

Choosing to ply their trade through the mid-nineties by recording early sessions onto demo tapes and 7-inch records, the trio played live at every given opportunity with bands such as Colour Haze, Orange Sunshine and Ufomammut. It wasn’t until the release of their 2007 debut album, Psycle, that Deadpeach came to the attention of wider European audiences. With their loose, blues driven lysergic rock proving deadly in live doses, the band is often compared to the likes of Dead Meadow and Blue Cheer and as you will hear on new single, ‘Madras’ none of that potency has been dulled with the passing of time. 

“This project represents a unique sonic experience where our musical influences, spanning from stoner to heavy and European psychedelia, converge to create an exhilarating journey,” explains vocalist/guitarist, Giovanni Giovannini. “Our objective is to transcend the boundaries of the traditional ‘one riff album’ and immerse the listener in a diverse range of musical emotions. We wanted the album to take you through unique sounds and atmospheres, and meticulously craft each track to provide an engaging and stimulating experience.”

The Cosmic Haze and the Human Race will be released 6th February 2024 on galaxy-coloured vinyl and limited to 100 copies, featuring a hand numbered insert autographed by the band | Order now at deadpeach-rock.bandcamp.com
