| Hailing from the Gold Coast, Australia, Hard Rock trio boWsER have released their sophomore album “Whispers From the Wickerman.” This relentless new collection further explores the band’s unique brand of ‘rock with an apocalyptic intelligence, hitting as hard as city concrete’ and drawing comparisons to such Goliaths as QOTSA and Them Crooked Vultures along the way. “‘Whispers from the Wickerman’ is what 3 dudes making rock music in a dark room sounds like. What you hear is what you get. Straight up riff-heavy volcanic rock. It’s also exactly what we sound like live. Definitely a wind down the window, turn it up and put the pedal to the metal kind of album. This album means more to us than we can possibly express. It is a beast that has taken unimaginable amounts of blood, sweat and tears to bring to life. It is so good to finally know that all those years of hard work, triumphs and failures, elation and devastation are finally going to be shared with the world.” – Otto Mitter (bass guitarist) Exploring dark themes wholeheartedly and unafraid to experiment, boWsER‘s battle-tested sound is borne of a deep, brotherly connection shared not only with each other but their whole scene.

A tight, prolific unit — their crunchy, volcanic, riff-driven rock has been continually evolving since their inception. In 2019, the band emerged from a deeply creative hiatus with ‘People in the TV,’ the first single from their long awaited sophomore release, ‘Whispers From The Wickerman.’ boWsER churn out rock music the way it’s meant to be. It has an apocalyptic intelligence, hitting as hard as city concrete and drawing comparisons to such Goliaths as QOTSA and Them Crooked Vultures along the way. Their songs are not easily forgotten, colliding unapologetically with any ears fortunate enough to receive them. Rewind several years and the talents of Nathan Williams, Otto Mitter Jr and Brad Weynton first come together as boWsER. The connection was instant. Here were three artists with the ability to pull each other in new directions, to make music that was ingenious and original. It has since been a continual musical evolution of these firm friends who grew up playing music together under the Gold Coast sun. Their trajectory has been intriguing. After signing a worldwide publishing deal with EMI, they went on to release their debut mini-album ‘Modus Operandi.’ Greeted with rave reviews, Drum Media declared: “These kids have the chops. Two years and they’ll be spitting fire. Six songs so full of ideas all over in barely over 15 minutes just aren’t enough.” Hand selected by Triple J Unearthed to support Eagles of Death Metal on their Australian tour, they were also finalists in both the Rock Category and The Courier-Mail People’s Choice Award at the Q Song Awards. Brilliant and promising in their early years as fresh faced young artists, their music has continued to gestate behind the scenes to create work of exceptional quality. More than a decade after their previous release; ‘Whispers From The Wickerman’ is out now. This collection of gritty crunch rock produced by acclaimed UK/ Australian producer Steve James, will affirm the welcome return of boWsER. ‘Hits with a punch. In a good way.’ – Richard Kingsmill ‘Good lord, what a walloping this tune serves up! Played with tight precision, but still leaves you plenty of room to bounce off the riff action; go on play it again boWsER!’ – Caz Tran boWsER linktr.ee | |
