Gods & Punks - A Shrine By The Sea

Fakta Brazilian stoner rock band Gods & Punks will release their sixth studio album, “A Shrine By The Sea," on Electric Valley Records. Conceived as an ode to the sea, “A Shrine By The Sea" features two extended compositions: “The Lighthouse" (Side A) and “Poseidon" (Side B), each running 21 minutes and 12 seconds. The album highlights the band’s signature blend of heavy riffs, psychedelic passages, and progressive structures. “The Lighthouse" explores a wide dynamic range, moving between atmospheric sections, slow doom passages, and Sabbath-inspired riffing. The track also features guest vocals by Andrea Ruocco (ex-Spiral Guru), adding a distinct layer to the band’s sound. On the other side, “Poseidon" presents a more fluid and psychedelic approach, with a calmer tone that gradually builds intensity while maintaining a strong sense of space and immersion.
