Earth
drone, doom metal
Earth, led by Dylan Carlson, is a pioneering band in drone metal and ambient metal, formed in Olympia, Washington, in 1990. Known for their minimalist, glacially paced compositions like "Earth 2," they've evolved to incorporate elements of country, folk, and psychedelic rock, as heard on albums like "The Bees Made Honey In the Lions Skull." Their influential sound is characterized by heavy, repetitive riffs and expansive, atmospheric soundscapes.
