Doom Metal
Witnesses blur the line between doom metal and ambient electronic music, weaving glacially slow, melodic heaviness with textural soundscapes that lend their songs an almost cinematic scale. Their NYC Bandcamp handle grounds them in that city's experimental underground, where genre orthodoxy has never been sacred. Formed in 2017, they're a rare act that can make a drone feel both crushing and eerily beautiful.
