About Pallbearer
Pallbearer are a doom metal quartet from Arkansas, and their sound is rooted in the riff-centric tradition pioneered by Black Sabbath. The band's approach is appended by a neo-psychedelic application of guitar harmony and prog elements. It was initially showcased on a three-song demo that included a cover of the Billie Holiday standard "Gloomy Sunday." They hardwired guitar interplay into their core sound on their 2012 debut album Sorrow and Extinction. Live and on recordings, Pallbearer graft layers of impenetrably sludgy guitars onto a thick wall of oppressive, throbbing, bass-and-drum-kit bleakness. 2014's charting Foundations of Burden had a more glacial feel but retained the band's textures and dynamics thanks in part to producer Billy Anderson's mix. Their third full-length, 2017's Heartless, marked their international breakthrough as it reached the top spot on several charts. 2020's Forgotten Days also charted. They returned with Mind Burns Alive in 2024.
