Sonic Mantras by The Black Heart Death Cult
Welcome to "Sonic Mantras". The second album from Melbourne heavy psych/shoegazers The Black Heart Death Cult. TBHDC don’t sing songs about love, they love. They try to understand what lies beneath & come up with the heart felt frustration of the fucked up state of humanity.
Please take the time to listen to the earth. It is crying.
This is what it sounds like.

Gloom/doom singer/songwriter Sasha L Smith envisions a brave new dark age of droney bliss in the sonic bazaar. Domenic Evans fret wizard, Donovan Pill subsonic bass dealer & Andy Nunns human time machine are on the magic bus we call “The Black Heart Death Cult”.
