Conan emerged from northern England with a sound built on towering riffs, punishing low end and a blend of doom, sludge and crust-infused aggression. Their debut album, captures the trio at their most uncompromising across four expansive tracks of crushing heaviness. Recorded at Wales' renowned Foel Studio, the album channels the band's raw power into a monolithic wall of sound. Massive riffs, pounding rhythms and distinctive vocals combine to create a relentless listen that leaves a lasting impact. With artwork by Tony Roberts, Horseback Battle Hammer established the foundations of Conan's signature style and marked the arrival of one of doom metal's most formidable bands.
