discography:

WARLUNG is a Texas band formed by longtime friends and brothers (former members of Houston’s The Dead Revolt and Rivers) in 2016.
Their sound is an ode to classic rock and modern metal, mixing heavy riffs and catchy melodies with a psychedelic twist.
Inspired by the sounds of old, WARLUNG has taken what the 70’s era of rock and psychedelia gave and turned it into a hi-powered, white knuckled ride, down the rock n’ roll highway.
After self-releasing their debut album ‘Sleepwalker‘ in 2017, they quickly gained a cult following around Texas, opening for bands like Wo Fat and Dead Meadow.
The band seemed to accept that they don’t have to stick to traditional themes and goes for more epic storytelling, helping to further expand their sound.
They wasted no time and returned to the studio to release ‘Immortal Portal‘ in 2019, becoming a local favorite to support bands such as High Reeper and King Buffalo.
The band promoted their unique sound playing notable festivals End Hip End It Fest, SXSW, Stoner Jam, Lone Star Unleashed and Ripplefest.
They are renowned for their pneumonic rage, utilizing elements of true doom, stoner rock and occult-driven blues.
After signing with Heavy Psych Sounds to release ‘Optical Delusions’ in 2020 and ‘Vulture’s Paradise‘ in 2022, they embarked on their first European tour in early 2023.
In February 2025 they released their fifth album, ‘The Poison Touch‘, via Heavy Psych Sounds Records.
Their wicked riffs, dream-like vocals and sinful solos subdue the listener into a deep state of fantasia.
Touring sporadically, they continued to be included on lineups of Desert Rock Fest, Seismic Summer, sharing the stage with High on Fire, Truckfighters, Bongzilla, Weedeater, Windhand, and Brant Bjork.
In March 2025 they took part in the Heavy Psych Sounds Fest in Athens, Greece, sharing the stage with stoner veterans Nightstalker and Orange Goblin.
