about
A DOOM CHARTS Number One Record
doomcharts.com/2019/04/01/doom-charts-march-2019/
'This is heavy metal how it should be done, with lashings of occult camp and some sweet solstice swagger' The Guardian
www.theguardian.com/music/2019/mar/22/arcade-fire-track-of-the-week
‘Killer, sample-strewn psych-doom. There’s great songwriting, spiralling solos and the power of the riff permeating all of it' Daniel P. Carter, Kerrang!
www.instagram.com/p/BwFKWiJJET-/
'The full-length debut from these South London voyagers surges with all the druggy riffs and spooky psychedelia you could ever want' Metal Hammer
www.instagram.com/p/BxchWGeJTOQ/
'An early contender to stand among 2019’s best debut albums... something truly special' The Obelisk
theobelisk.net/obelisk/2019/01/28/green-lung-woodland-rites-review-premiere/
'A fantastic mix of stoner rock, hard rock and psychedelic rock laden with harmonies. The band just dropped their new single "Let The Devil In" and it's going to get stuck in your head while also essentially forcing you to slow head bang' Metal Injection
'I’ve already tagged this one for me to revisit when Doomed & Stoned considers the Heavy Best of 2019. This is exceptional in every way' Doomed & Stoned
doomedandstoned.com/post/183292442908/greenlung
Woodland Rites is one of the most enjoyable albums I’ve heard recently. Because it handles themes of belief, magic, and perspectives on life with such a light and inclusive hand, it sneaks up on you. You find yourself not only rocking to its excellent music but somehow inhaling its mood. A riff rings out and you can smell the oak’s needles; a vocal line rings and an image of a cowled figure flashes in your head, a lit candle in one hand. Green Lung accomplish making both a great musical album and a great lyrical journey into their imagination. Just take their hand and away you go' Heavy Blog Is Heavy
'A stellar experience... when music is as strong and reputable as this one cannot help but to crank up the volume and give in to its power, of which there is an absolute abundance' New Noise Magazine
newnoisemagazine.com/review-green-lung-woodland-rites/
'The songs are strong, the lyrical imagery is top notch and the music does not miss a beat. Woodland Rites is one of the best debut records I have heard in some time' Outlaws of the Sun
'Just like that, Green Lung have submitted another contender for metal album of the year. Folks, we’re only just in March. I thought 2018 was a high mark year for metal, but 2019 is shaping up possibly even stronger. 10/10' Metal Temple
'The fact that Woodland Rites is the debut from Green Lung is simply incredible as the level of maturity and depth in the song writing far exceeds the band’s years. With the band writing songs of this level on their debut album, it is truly exciting to see what they come up with for their next release' Distorted Sound
'A very impressive debut from a very impressive band. "Woodland Rites" is a superb album that is both melodic AND accessible' Desert Psychlist
'Full of great riffs, brilliant hammond work, great lyrics and vocals and some amazing solos. One of the best stoner/psychedelic rock albums I have heard in a very long time' Musipedia of Metal
musipediaofmetal.blogspot.com/2019/03/reviews-tyr-green-lung-critical.html
'Full of top riffs, catchy vocals, and endless mood. These are the kind of songs that stay with you after the record has stopped playing. Highly recommended' Indy Metal Vault
www.indymetalvault.com/2019/04/19/vault-picks-2-april-19th-2019/
'This band has impressed so much these last couple of years just releasing total bangers and I don’t think they’re gonna stop anytime soon' Mammoth Tongue Reviews
