Official press release:
Italy-based classic doom trio Warcoe have signed to Ripple Music for the release of their third full-length, Upon Tall Thrones this September 26th, and unleash its debut single “Octagon” on all streaming platforms!
Hailing from Pesaro, Italy, Warcoe drags classic doom into the abyss and back with Sabbathian weight, Saint Vitus’ raw gloom, and the swagger of Trouble’s golden-era riffage. Since 2021, the trio has carved a niche in the underground with a sound that’s both a homage to the old gods and a fresh hell of its own: slow-burning, groove-heavy, and laced with stoner metal venom.
Their 2021 debut, The Giant’s Dream, emerged like a monolith from the depths, earning praise within the scene before Regain Records unleashed it on vinyl and CD — a fitting resurrection for an album steeped in doom’s primordial essence. The 2023 follow-up, A Place for Demons, proved Warcoe wasn’t just a relic revival act but a true force to be reckoned with. Landing at #2 on Doom Charts’ Best of December and #37 for the entire year, the album masterfully fused Trouble’s anthemic might with the creeping dread of Pentagram, all while swinging like Saxon in a candlelit crypt.
Now, with their third album and Ripple Music debut Upon Tall Thrones, Warcoe ascends — darker, heavier, and more hypnotic — as they spin tales of arcane fantasy and mortal frailty into riffs that crush and melodies that linger like a curse.
Pre-order are available now on physical and digital formats via Ripple Music’s Bandcamp.
