Vak The Islands

Swedish experimental metallers VAK were highly praised for their previous album “Loud Wind” (2019), a piece of well-produced, doom-groovy, stoner/sludge. UK Magazine Zero Tolerance wrote that the album was “one of 2019’s contenders for best stoner metal album!....It’s one thing to pack an album full of crushing riffs, memorable hooks, and passionate performances, but VAK truly evoke a unified togetherness that beams throughout” while Metal Temple (uk) gave the album a 9/10, stating that "vak is its own unique breed, one that has hints of the past but is focused solely on the future." Praised for their ability to incorporate more than just one style and genre in their music, drawing inspiration from a great variety of bands and artists, VAK’s upcoming album The Island is something to look forward to! The album will be released in September 2023, featuring eight new tracks developing VAK’s distinctive sound even further.
