Heavy rock power trio and recent Blacklight Media/Metal Blade Records signees, HIPPIE DEATH CULT,are pleased to present their new stand-alone single, “Blood, Grit & Bone.” The song marks their first new studio output in three years.
The band comments, “‘Blood, Grit & Bone’ is a powerful, unapologetic statement of resilience-a fierce anthem of self-acceptance that celebrates the strength found in aging, the beauty of hard-earned scars, and defiant confidence in the face of societal judgment. Musically, the track traces the evolution of heavy music, building a bridge from ’70s-infused, foundational grit to the high-velocity, percussive intensity of the thrash metal movement.”
HIPPIE DEATH CULT recently kicked off their tour through Europe and the United Kingdom. The journey commenced on September 30th and will run through October 30th. From there, the band will head back to the US to join the Corrosion Of Conformity and The Sword co-headlining tour. The two-week trek begins on November 2nd in Buffalo, New York and closes on November 19th in Pensacola, Florida. HIPPIE DEATH CULT will make their way back home with seven more headlining dates from November 21st in Houston, Texas through November 29th in Oakland, California.

HIPPIE DEATH CULT has steadily become one of the most exciting bands in the modern heavy music scene, pairing massive riffs, deep grooves, psychedelic textures, thoughtful lyricism, and hypnotizing melodies into a sound that feels both classic and contemporary. Formed in Portland, Oregon, the trio – guitarist Eddie Brnabic, vocalist/bassist Laura Phillips, and drummer Harry Silvers – has earned a reputation for delivering dynamic, emotionally charged songs and electrifying live performances that showcase their distinctive sound, transcending traditional genres and captivating fans worldwide.
Since their early releases with Cursed Tongue Records and Heavy Psych Sounds Records, the band has built significant momentum. Their 2019 debut album, 111, and its 2021 follow-up, Circle Of Days, received strong praise from critics and listeners alike, with both records topping the Doom Charts and numerous “Best Of” lists, solidifying HIPPIE DEATH CULT as a standout name in the underground scene.
Following these releases, the band’s evolution into a power trio marked a turning point, with Laura Phillips stepping into lead vocal duties and infusing even more identity and force into the group’s sound and chemistry. This progression came fully into focus on Helichrysum, the band’s first full-length studio album featuring Phillips on lead vocals. Released in 2023, the album was widely praised for its stronger songwriting, greater dynamic range, and the chemistry of the new lineup, becoming their most successful release to date in terms of streams and sales.
The band supported Helichrysum with over 250 shows across North America and Europe, including performances on major festival stages and headlining spots, further showcasing the raw power and intensity that have made their live shows a must-see.
Now signed to Blacklight Media and Metal Blade Records, HIPPIE DEATH CULT is entering a new phase with the most reach and momentum of their career. With a growing international fanbase, an increasingly refined sound, and a new release on the horizon, the band is poised to take the next leap forward. Stay tuned for more new music and more in 2027.
