After coming together over frustrations with the pandemic, Black Lava boiled to a nicely charred head on their debut album. Despite surfacing toward the end of 2022, ‘Soul Furnace’ burned with such fury that Distorted Sound dubbed it a contender for album of the year. The blackened riffs spilled all the way to #2 on Australia’s Independent Albums chart, while Dan Presland’s heavy grooves and blast beats melted away Sick Drummer.
Black Lava are riding that torrential wave all the way into 2024. The blackened heavy metal Aussies are touring the land down under with fellow countrymen Psycroptic and legendary swamp monsters Obituary.
