Cape Fear dwellers BRONCO unleash their heavy rocking debut album “Bronco” today, on February 28, 2025 via Magnetic Eye Records. 

The album is available for purchase at this location http://lnk.spkr.media/bronco-bronco 

“It feels like a lifetime of waiting, but we are ecstatic to be releasing our first record at long last!“, vocalist and bass player Bronco enthuses. “This album is an accumulation of the negativity and uncertainty of life, melded into a truthfully raw and powerful embrace of doom. Crank it up, and therapeutically let go of all the stresses and woes with us!” 

South of Wilmington, North Carolina at the estuary of the Cape Fear River, the prominent headland of Cape Fear stubbornly pushes back into the ever attacking waves of the ocean. Its treacherous waters, rugged rocks, massive undercurrents, and pirate coves are a part of the so-called Graveyard of the Atlantic and feared by sailors throughout the ages for the many ships and lives lost. 

This is a fitting home for BRONCO. The sound of their self-titled debut full-length “Bronco” is deeply steeped in doom metal and Southern sludge. It is also as obstinate, rough and unpolished, yet also genuine, honest, forward-pushing and unfiltered as the rocky ground it grew from.

The musical confidence and audible experience in both execution and songwriting has not just fallen from the sky. BRONCO rose from the ashes of TOKE after guitarist Tim Bryan suffered a tragic motorcycle accident in 2021. Out of respect for his incapacitated band mate, vocalist and bass player Bronco along with drummer JP decided to continue with a newly formed trio. Joined by guitarist Vic, they picked Bronco’s artist’s alias for their name.

Crawling, heavy aggression, molasses riffs, and barbed wire vocals seem to come with the terroir of North Carolina. WEEDEATER, SOUR VEIN and others have been brewing the heaviest sludge there. Sharing stages with standard bearers such as BONGZILLA, ASG, and BLACK TUSK quickly fermented BRONCO‘s sound into a sonic projection of ash and bone.

“Bronco” bleeds out a mix of grinding horror and beat-down resignation. It’s a soundtrack to grim self-reflection and forced acceptance of life’s letdowns. BRONCO pick up where TOKE left off, and carry forward through successfully experimenting with new elements and approaches. “Bronco” is massive and brutal, and stands out in its defiant, unrelenting individuality.

Tracklist:
1. Scourge Descent
2. Ride Eternal
3. Light of God

Cape Fear dwellers BRONCO drop the heavy rocking new track ‘Light of God‘ as the final advance single taken from the Americans’ forthcoming Magnetic Eye Records album debut “Bronco”, which is chalked up for release on February 28, 2025. 

The album pre-sale is available at this location http://lnk.spkr.media/bronco-bronco 

“The track ‘Light of God’ is a quick no frills rock n’ roller to break up the low and slow of the album while maintaining a revolving groove that’s rolling steady til the end“, drummer JP writes. “The rebirth of old ways awakened by outside forces, only to rot in their own legend.”

Rising from the treacherous depths of the Grave Yard of the Atlantic, Cape Fear denizens  BRONCO  reveal their ultra-heavy new video single ‘Damnation’. This dark track is taken from the Americans’ forthcoming Magnetic Eye Records album debut “Bronco”, which is scheduled for release on February 28, 2025. 

The album pre-sale is available at this location: http://lnk.spkr.media/bronco-bronco 

“The title of ‘Damnation’ stands for the high that comes from embracing a malevolent nature“, drummer JP explains. “Shedding old skin and driving this now freed monster. Spacey guitars start the track to get the unease building and stirring. We put the strings on the back burner, and use vocal melody and hammering drums instead to fill the song.”

1. Scourge Descent

Sailing from the pirate coves of Cape Fear, North Carolina’s BRONCO unleash their crushing debut single ‘Ride Eternal’, a heavy blend of doom metal and Southern sludge molasses. The premiered track is taken from the newly signed Americans’ forthcoming Magnetic Eye Records debut full-length “Bronco”, which is set for release on February 28, 2024. The album pre-sale is now available at this location: https://lnk.spkr.media/bronco-bronco

Watch the visualizer ‘Ride Eternal’ here:

“The track ‘Ride Eternal’ came from a period of heavy rumination about going from living on tour to forced acceptance of that part of life being over”, vocalist and bass player Bronco writes. “It was inspired by classic baroque organ tales like Bach’s ‘Toccata and Fugue in D minor’ and also wanting to do some heavy drone riffing without falling over bored while playing it.”

1. Scourge Descent
2. Ride Eternal
3. Light of God
4. Night the Lights Went out in Georgia
5. Legion
6. Fades All
7. Damnation
