Riff-Smiths “Mothers of the Land” are an instrumental Heavy Psych Rock band from Vienna, Austria founded in 2012. Known for crafting powerful vintage rock epics, centered around the spiraling psychedelia of their twin lead guitars. In June 2016, they released their live recorded DIY Debut-Album ‚Temple Without Walls‘ and gained a great international reception from listeners, artists and bloggers, resulting in fruitful collaborations around the globe. Introducing a new era of 70‘s inspired Rock, they deliver heavy twin guitars mounted on a protometal body, rejuvenated by numerous influences reaching from NWOBHM to Stoner Rock. Having played dozens of concerts with international headliner acts like „Asteroid“, „Elder“ or „Red Fang“, the band provides powerful performances that lure in the audiences deeply through the surreal worlds they create.
All those experiences were used to forge the new material, which finally formed their second album “Hunting Grounds” that is going to be released physical and digital via StoneFree Records on June 19th.
