And on the June 2026 edition of the Doom Charts! There rode PLAINDRIFTER! And their Gestalt album… Out on Ripple Music… PLAINDRIFTER… Yes… They seem to be able to crack open a wormhole and dare you to crawl inside. Gestalt drifts through it and from sun-scorched desert grooves into weightless cosmic psychedelia. The float there, where hypnotic riffs, shimmering ambience and tectonic waves of fuzz collide in glorious slow motion. Songs like Hyporian Age and the High Desert Queen’s Ryan Garney-assisted In Anima, breathe with confidence of a band chasing other worldly horizons rather than hooks. They turn silence and space into instruments of their own. The album has so much gravitational pull. This is music to dissappear into. This is music that will make you want to crawl through that wormhole over and over again…
Svempa ‘Doomsday Jesus’ Alveving (Cries From The Underworld) wrote: “On Gestalt, German band PLAINDRIFTER push far beyond the boundaries of traditional stoner rock, weaving progressive ambition, post-rock atmosphere and heavy psych into a record that constantly shifts between crushing weight and quiet introspection. Rather than repeating the formula of their debut, PLAINDRIFTER embrace a broader sonic palette, making Gestalt an immersive journey for fans of expansive heavy music in the vein of Elder, King Buffalo and Lowrider.”
