Dryad The Abyssal Plain 12

Iowa's 4 - piece blackened punk outfit, DRYAD, has recently joined the Prosthetic Records roster. With gritty dual vocals and non - stop buzzsaw riffs, DRYAD is a unique blend that defies easy categorization. They mix elements of d - beat punk, old - school death metal, and atmospheric black metal, adding their own brand of strange, blackened forest grime. Since the release of The Black Pullet EP in early 2017, DRYAD has risen from Iowa's DIY basement scene. They now perform regularly with diverse bands like Dawn Ray’d, Street Sects, and Drugcharge. Their second album, The Silurian Age, came out on cassette in June 2018 and has been steadily growing in popularity in the global underground metal scene. Inspired by Iowa's ancient glacial lakes and fossil - covered cliffs, this album mainly explores themes of ecological and political disasters, reminding us of the earth's inevitable backlash against its most harmful creatures. After being named one of Astral Noize’s Artists To Watch in 2019, DRYAD released a powerful split cassette with Acid Leather. They also recently completed a three - week national tour with THEORIES and Neckbeard Deathcamp as part of the Free Speech In America tour.

If you're a music lover, just press play on DRYAD's music and let it take you on a wild ride. The unique blend of different metal and punk styles makes it suitable for various moods. Whether you're relaxing at home or getting pumped up for a workout, their music can be a great companion. There aren't really any special rules for listening to this music. Just enjoy it at your preferred volume. As for maintaining your digital copy, make sure to back it up regularly to avoid losing it. If you have a physical cassette, keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.
