From the beginning, the purpose for this band was to incorporate our love of traditional doom metal with aheavy metal approach,” guitarist Eddie Andrade says. “We wanted to show that heavy doom can be complemented with melodies and harmonies. Black Sabbath meets NWOBHM is what we aim for, really.”
The band was founded in 2015 by Andrade and vocalist/keyboardist Alberto Alcaraz after a few years ofplaying in thrash and death metal projects before the two realized that the classic doom that they’d grown upwith was what they really wanted to explore. Going through a few lineup changes while delving deeper intothe diverging influences that were calling, Early Moods arrived at the sound and lineup that grew their fanbase locally. The band soon captured the attention of German label Dying Victim Productions, who released the debut EP, Spellbound in 2020.
