Bear Bones – Ridin’ Out
So yeah, I guess we’ve not been paying enough attention recently. Cause Bear Bones has apparently already been around for a year. A new project made up out of Rob Hoey on Vocals, Alex Clarke on Guitar, Peter Holland on Bass and Marco Ninni on Drums. That’s right, an outfit featuring members from Elephant Tree, Limb, Swedish Death Candy, Black Moth and Morag Tong. And for this new track Ridin’ Out, they’ve gotten Scott Black from Green Lung to go crazy on guitar. And now that they’ve gotten my attention, I will not slacken the reins…
With a definite Western or vile cowboy vibe, Ridin’ Out lumbers in on laid-back heavy blues, the groove following along in the dust cloud. Before kicking it all open, to a big windswept chorus, born out of a shadowy pulse of something doomier and dustier, a looming presence. This track seems built for the long haul, a long ride, down a dark desert with a band pushing forward through a dark and endless landscape. And now that we have Ridin’ Out, we can’t wait to hear more Bear Bones!
And all you lucky folks that can make it over to Helgi’s, Hackney, London on March 30th, they will play there with Scott Black on guitar. And with Sky Valley Mistress on the bill as well!
Listen to Ridin’ Out right now and keep your eyes peeled for the album, set for release through New Heavy Sounds later this year!
PR Wire:
Bear Bones, who feature members of Elephant Tree, Limb, Swedish Death Candy, Black Moth and Morag Tong, return with “Ridin’ Out”, a brand new original track that marks the next step forward for the blues/doom outfit. Built around a driving groove and uncompromising riffs, the single captures the band at their most direct and focused to date.
“Ridin’ Out” keeps one foot in the blues while leaning fully into the weight and scale of doom. It’s a track designed for volume and for the stage — tight, deliberate and built to land hard. There’s no excess, no overthinking — just a band locked in and pushing their sound further.
The single features a guest appearance from Scott Black of Green Lung, adding another dimension to the track. That collaboration will carry over to the live setting, with Scott joining Bear Bones on stage at this year’s Masters Of The Riff at Oslo, Hackney.
“Ridin’ Out” also introduces the band’s forthcoming album, set for release through New Heavy Sounds later this year. The partnership with New Heavy Sounds (Cwfen, Blacklab, Shooting Daggers, Death Pill, Sky Valley Mistress) signals a significant moment for Bear Bones, placing them alongside some of the strongest names in the UK heavy scene and setting the stage for their most complete statement yet.
With a growing live reputation and a clear sense of direction, Bear Bones are building momentum. “Ridin’ Out” is the first taste of what’s coming next.
