The Cosmic Heavy Psych Metal force Book Of Wyrms return with “Proficient Dreamer,” the second single from their highly anticipated fourth album, “Megacelestial,” out December 11, 2026, via Argonauta Records on CD, colored vinyl, and digital!
Faster, dirtier, and more aggressive, “Megacelestial” marks a bold new chapter for the US four-piece, blending Classic Heavy Metal power, Psychedelic atmospheres, Fuzz-driven riffs, and otherworldly synths.
Featuring new drummer Brian Wiltz and mixed by Rob Wrong (Wrong Way Recording, Witch Mountain), the album channels the spirit of 80s Judas Priest, Dio, Thin Lizzy, Scorpions, Queen, and Motörhead into a hard-hitting, cosmic Heavy Psych experience.
“Megacelestial” out December 11, 2026 on CD colored vinyl and digital via Argonauta Records.
Formed in 2014 out of a shared devotion to Hawkwind and ZZ Top, Book Of Wyrms describe themselves as a four piece Heavy Metal Psych band with extensive experience jamming in outer space, steadily building a reputation in the US underground through their blend of Heavy riffs, Psychedelic textures and driving energy.
For the first time, the band also worked with a dedicated mixer. Rob Wrong (Wrong Way Recording, Witch Mountain) handled the mix, opening up a new sonic dimension for Book Of Wyrms and helping shape a sound that feels both sharper and more expansive than ever before. His approach aligned naturally with the band’s vision, drawing on reference points such as Dio’s “Last In Line” and Judas Priest’s “Turbo,” while still allowing space for unexpected creative directions in the mix.
Stylistically, the band continues to evolve while staying rooted in their core influences. Alongside their enduring love for Rainbow, Hawkwind and Monster Magnet, Book Of Wyrms found themselves drawing inspiration from 80s Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Scorpions, Queen and Motörhead, aiming to create music built for movement and intensity. The result is a collection of songs shaped with a strict approach to composition, where anything that did not “hit” with full impact was left behind.
