Sludge-tinged riff lords HOLLOW LEG return on June 13th, 2025 with Dust and Echoes, a thunderous new full-length that doubles as both concept and collision — two EPs (Dust and Echoes) written in separate sessions, now merged into one devastatingly cohesive release. The album will be released via Third House Communications and features nine crushing tracks that traverse doom, grunge, classic metal, and space rock.
Dust and Echoes was recorded and produced by the band at High Five Studio in DeLand, Florida, with mixing and mastering handled by Zeuss (HATEBREED, CROWBAR, ROB ZOMBIE). Artwork was created by Shawn Garrett and Jean Saiz, reflecting the record’s post-apocalyptic themes of human collapse, survival, and rebirth.
The album showcases HOLLOW LEG’s most varied and atmospheric songwriting to date, with layers of percussion, groove-heavy riffing, spaced-out guitar work, and a balance of sludge and melody that pushes the band into new sonic territory. Tracks like “Holy Water,” “Ride the Wave/Dig the Grave,” and “Last Tribe” dive deep into end-of-days scenarios — a choose-your-own-adventure soundtrack for the end of the world and what might come after.
About HOLLOW LEG:
HOLLOW LEG is a heavy band born in the swamps of Florida, built on riffs, rhythm, and raw energy. Since forming in 2009, the band has forged a sound that blends sludge, doom, and hard rock with elements of grunge, classic metal, and even blues and hip-hop — a swampy, groove-laden punch to the gut that’s as soulful as it is crushing.
Over the years, HOLLOW LEG has carved out a loyal following with their dynamic songwriting, relentless live shows, and a discography that balances grit with atmosphere. The lineup — Scott Angelacos (vocals), Brent Lynch (guitars/backing vocals), John Stewart (drums/percussion), and Tom Crowther (bass) — brings deep roots in the underground, with current and former members of cult bands like BLOODLET, CARIBOU KING, and JUNIOR BRUCE.
With appearances at major underground festivals like Psycho Las Vegas and Maryland Doom Fest, and a catalog of full-lengths and EPs that have pushed their sound in new directions, HOLLOW LEG continues to evolve without losing their core: heavy, honest, and hungry. Whether channeling the slow burn of doom, the swagger of stoner rock, or the urgency of hardcore, they remain fiercely committed to the riff and the truth it carries.
Their new album, Dust and Echoes, is the culmination of everything the band has built — a concept forged from two distinct EPs that fuse into a single, end-of-days experience. It’s their heaviest, most varied, and most fully realized statement yet.
