Las Cruces

A crushing doom band from Texas, Las Cruces plays an early-Sabbath style reminiscent of bands like St. Vitus or The Obsessed. They recorded two albums in the late 90's on the Brainticket label, with a slight nod toward Ringmaster as perhaps the better of the two. Since then the band has laid low, with several lineup changes and numerous periods of inactivity. Occasionally they emerge with a new album, as they did in 2010 with Dusk and again in 2022 with Cosmic Tears.
