Product description

Sumac, the experimental metal trio, unveils their fifth studio album, "The Healer," on June 21, 2024, through Thrill Jockey. This sprawling, four-track opus clocks in at a substantial 76 minutes, making it their longest release to date. "The Healer" is a dense and invigorating journey through the band's signature blend of sludge, drone, stoner, noise, and doom metal, showcasing their dexterity and sonic adventurousness.

The album luxuriates in moods and atmospherics, with extended and feedback-heavy guitarwork taking center stage. Sumac masterfully weaves together long stretches of free improvisation with crushing doom riffing, creating a dynamic and unpredictable soundscape. The band's signature death vocals add a raw and intense element to the mix.

Throughout "The Healer," Sumac demonstrates an unexpected frailty, revealing a more introspective side to their music. The album is a sequence of shifting movements that undergo a constant process of expansion and contraction, keeping the listener engaged and on edge. From the wandering, static-laced noise of "World of Light" to the languid and heavy "The Stone's Turn," each track offers a unique and captivating experience.

Sumac's "The Healer" is a testament to their growth and evolution as a band, pushing the boundaries of their genre and delivering a powerful, immersive listening experience. Whether you're a long-time fan or new to their music, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression.

This 2LP set was released in 2024.

  • Amazing Album, Crystal-Clear Sound

    5 out of 5 stars
    bvozabawtJune 10, 2025United States🇺🇸

    This is an amazing version of a fantastic album. The mixing and mastering are top-notch, with crystal-clear sound, deep bass, and powerful drums. The vinyl record itself is super quiet, with no surface noise at all. I initially got the amber-colored pressing, but it had so much surface noise (even after cleaning) that I took a chance on this version, and it's so much better!

  • Warped but Perfect Playback

    5 out of 5 stars
    yyulooyuJanuary 2, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Both disks have a slight warp, but it doesn't impact playback at all. Every side sounds incredible, not even a single skip.

  • Excellent Quality Record

  • Heavy, Flawless Metal Journey

    5 out of 5 stars
    ufduodkopzuesJune 28, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Stunning packaging and artwork, but even more importantly, the sound. Absolutely flawless sound throughout. This album is an astonishing, heavy, and powerful journey. Pure instrumental madness at times. Without a doubt, their best work yet and a strong contender for metal AOTY so far.

About Sumac

Sumac is a captivating musical project that blends the raw intensity of sludge metal, the hypnotic drones of drone metal, the heavy riffs of stoner metal, the chaotic energy of noise rock, and the slow, crushing weight of doom metal. Hailing from the same name as a versatile spice known for its tangy, citrusy, and smoky flavors, Sumac brings a similarly complex and bold flavor to the metal scene. With a sound that is as deep and rich as the burgundy-colored sumac spice, Sumac's music is a journey through heavy, atmospheric, and often experimental landscapes. Their music is not just an auditory experience but a full sensory immersion, much like the multifaceted nature of the sumac spice itself. Sumac's unique blend of genres and their ability to create a sound that is both crushing and melodic makes them a standout in the world of heavy music.
