Old Man Gloom is a Sludge Metal and Ambient/Noise band that was formed in New Mexico by guitarist/vocalist Aaron Turner and drummer Santos Montano. With their unique blend of heavy, atmospheric soundscapes, Old Man Gloom has become a respected name in the metal music scene.

Inspired by bands like Neurosis, ISIS, and Kylesa, Old Man Gloom has carved out their own niche with their powerful and intense performances. Their music combines elements of sludge metal with ambient noise to create a captivating and immersive experience for listeners.

With albums like "Seminar II: The Holy Rites Of Primitivism Regressionism" and "Christmas," Old Man Gloom showcases their ability to push boundaries and experiment with different sounds. They have also collaborated with other notable artists such as Zozobra, Made Out Of Babies, Cult Of Luna, Pelican, Jesu, Mouth Of The Architect, Baroness, Amenra, Year Of No Light, Torche, Rosetta , Helms Alee , TODAY IS THE DAY , Intronaut , Sumac , Bossk , Omega Massif.

Featuring members of Cave In, SUMAC, ISIS [the band], Zozobra and Converge, OLD MAN GLOOM’S “Seminar II” has taken sludge rock and metal to its furthest reaches yet, mixing Neurosis-style apocalyptic blasts, the kind of psychedelic, harrowing ambience that would give Earth nightmares and an obsession with all things simian. Santos Montaño (Zozobra) and Aaron Turner (SUMAC, ISIS ...[the band]) are the thread that drives Old Man Gloom. What began as an act of immediacy has turned into a full-fledged band, with the addition of members Nate Newton (Converge, Cave In), Caleb Scofield (Cave In, Zozobra) and Luka Scarola (Luddite Antiques). Structurally: short, damaging sonic barbs, stylistically similar to Isis’s dirge, yet unafraid to explore their more stoner rock leanings, intercut with ambient compositions, noise tracks and bizarre sonic manipulations, to form a fractured yet engrossing whole.&nbsp;A suffocating melange of various sound textures fused and soldered together by five ambitious musicians - with the help of alt-metal producer/guru Kurt Ballou. Indeed, Old Man Gloom’s music is a successful jaunt into the deepest recesses of discord, where fortuity and pure energy collide in a spectacular landscape of sound and sight.
