Since 2017, Magnatar have commanded their presence through high voltage amplified atmosphere. Assembled in the mountainous state of New Hampshire, the quad brings about a sound rife with hellish, off-metered dissonance and drone, introspective ambient passages, and a vocal style that transitions between harsh and hypnotic.
"New Hampshire four-piece MAGNATAR struck me immediately as a band that’s striving to see what’s just beyond view of the naked eye. Their sound is continually pushing forward with bold sweeping gestures. One could almost characterize it as monstrous, but truthfully it is both beast and beauty. There are moments on ‘Crushed’ (2022) when the vents are opened up and all hell is cast through them. Other songs on the album usher us through valleys of wonder (“Crown of Thorns”), mountains of disturbing mystery (“Crushed”), and apocalyptic landscapes dotted with meteoric craters (“Even Horizon”)."

For fans of YOB, Neurosis, Ken Mode, and Helms Alee
