Southern California’s fuzzed out Stoner Rock outfit Idol Lord released the first single “Last Gladiator” taken from their upcoming debut album, “The Other Side,” which will be released on January 31, 2025 via Glory Or Death Records. Purchase and Stream the track on Bandcamp:
The origins of Idol Lord began on the south bay beaches just south of Los Angeles, where the sounds of Black Flag, The Circle Jerks and RKL were as common as Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy and Black Oak Arkansas. Forged by surf, skate, Punk, Metal and Classic Rock, the members slowly started moving northward into the less densely populated area of the high desert of northern Los Angeles county.
Based out of the small, high desert community of Quartz Hill, CA. Idol Lord has fused it’s Classic Rock childhood, Punk Rock adolescence and metal adulthood into it’s own unique brand of fuzzed out Stoner/Desert Rock.
The band is looking forward to the upcoming release of it’s debut album entitled “The Other Side” on Glory Or Death Records. Recorded in May of 2024 at Pale Moon Ranch Studios in the high desert town of Juniper Hills, the album was engineered and mixed by Alex Estrada. The album is saturated with a deep, Heavy Fuzz and the band is very proud that this release will be featured on 12” vinyl as well as being available for streaming on all major platforms.
Since completing recording, the band has added new bassist Stephen Edwards, while the previous bassist, Rowdy Robby Williams has moved to second guitar for a twin lead attack with vocalist and other guitarist Willy Idol.
