‘Black Blood of the Earth’ / ‘A Sunken Place’ by Blue Heron | Desert Rock from Albuquerque
Exclusive EP premiere of ‘Black Blood of the Earth’ / ‘A Sunken Place’ by heavy rock band from Albuquerque, New Mexico, Blue Heron.
Blue Heron is a four-piece band from New Mexico creating their own mix of authentic desert rock blended with elements of doom, stoner metal, and heavy psych. They are about to self-release their debut EP, a two-song 7-inch for the songs ‘Black Blood of the Earth’ and ‘A Sunken Place’.
“Our full album is coming in the Spring of 2022 via a pretty cool label arrangement, but we wanted to get something out this year and, honestly, we’re proud of what we’ve created.”
“Surrounded by endless horizons that spark a compulsion to fill the vastness with massive volume, we saturate our piece of desert with rolling, thunderous riffs, drums that pummel and swing, deep, thrumming tones and vocals that rip and roar.” Blue Heron
Blue Heron’s guitarist and singer were founding members of Spiritu, possibly Albuquerque’s first desert style rock band, who burned briefly yet brightly with a Jack Endino-produced debut LP, a European tour with Clutch, Spiritual Beggars and Dozer, and a compilation slot next to Entombed and Mastodon.
