Century Plants

slow motion psych drift, lazy and blown out

About Me

Massive inferno style guitar destruction by this new crew outta Albany, NY. Part raging metallic clang by way of the holy Shred, part meditative feedbacking in total Zen style. Escaping melodies get trashed like Blue Humans digging on a Loren Mazzacane Connors riff. Below is the first Century Plants video, created by Jason Cosco! It's the first track of "Inversions', our release on IKUISUUS records from Finland.
