Orlando's Tranquilizer fuse doom and stoner metal into a heavy, lethargic wall of sound — slow-churning riffs, fuzz-drenched tones, and the kind of suffocating groove that the Florida heat demands.
Little Rock, Arkansas's Tranquilo lean deep into the psychedelic end of stoner/doom, weaving hazy, slow-burning riff cycles with a trippy, meditative quality that sets them apart from heavier fare in the mid-South.
Tranqvillitas Maris specialize in the glacial extremes of funeral doom metal, stretching compositions into vast expanses of grief-laden slowness from their base in Luxembourg. Since 2016, the project's name — Latin for 'Sea of Tranquility' — has reflected the cosmic desolation embedded in their monolithic sound.
