Hesper Payne

Woe betide the one who disturbs their sleep

About Me

Sludgy Lovecraftian doomed metal expunged from the bowels of Teesside: Leviathan Cthulhoid grooves rise monolithically from a plateau of foreboding apocalyptic dirge, a slow moving yet horribly inexorable onslaught of cosmic horror. The stars are right for you to be crushed.
Congealed in 2004 but not gaining sentience or the will to move until now, Hesper Payne have just put together their first full lineup and will be gigging from early next year.
Our current CD Dreamer In The Deep is now sold out, thanks to everyone who purchased a copy! We have now made the whole thing available for free download from this here myspace, so download it and force it on all you can THE OLD ONES COMMAND IT! Hopefully we should have another cd done sometime next year with the new lineup on.
The last few copies of the Dreamer CD can be now be purchased from Psychedoomelic records, each one has the band logo hand drawn by me on the CD. To order one check out the relevant blog post..
