Eternal Return, the fourth full length from Richmond, Virginia's heavy psychedelic quartet WINDHAND represents a new era for the group, a chrysalis moment that takes them to new and unforeseen heights. Across nine songs and 63 minutes, Eternal Return is an infectious display of songcraft cloaked in alluring atmosphere, molten fuzz, eerie psychedelia and ethereal vocals. The album was once again produced by Jack Endino (Nirvana, Soundgarden) with vivid artwork by Arik Roper (Sleep, High on Fire). Equally informed by heavy, fuzzed-out psych along with the iconic grunge / alternative groups of the 90s, WINDHAND have crafted a record brilliant in scope, powerful in execution, and perfect for an era of increasingly blurry yet still heavy borders.
Lyrics: Flat black window panes Icy veins Rolling around in the same old cage Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easing the pain Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Skin as thin as rust Turn to dust Do what you want to Do what you must Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easing the pain Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Flat black window panes Icy veins Rolling around the same old cage Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easing the pain Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back
Such a great band. The vocals are so soothing and relaxing but has that heaviness with the rest of the band. Reminds me of Alice In Chains a lot, and I love it!
Discovered these guys a few weeks ago and this song has been on repeat. Squeezing all the dopamine I can out of it. Never been a huge "Stoner rock" fan but thanks to these I've been looking into it more.
The two tracks I've heard from this album remind me of the soundtrack of my youth but DANK as hell. I wish I could have had this album during the summer!
Flat as window panes I see paint Rolling around in the same old cage Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easy to paint Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Skin as thin as rows Turn to dust Do what you want to Do what you must Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easy to paint Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Flat as window panes I see pains Rolling around the same old cage Everything stays the same Redder than roses Easy to paint Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back, again Hope it don't come back
You know I’ve never been too into the sludge/doom type bands but it’s growing on me. I might try to see this band when they come to Nashville if I’m not too busy with school. Also I love her voice!

What a band...! It's like they took Mudhoney's pinnacle, 'Sweet Young Thing', made it their own and ran with it... Stunning... Not to suggest they are imitating in any sense.
so stoked for this album. The melodies on these tracks are fuckin hauntingly beautiful, the riffs are groovey and sort of spacey, classic dark windhand tinge to it but definitely has a more psych rock kinda groove. Masters of the craft, No bullshit no frills just good music. Love windhand!
i wanted to tell you about how we were just talking about...a contradiction...that implies and prescribes humility...but i realize even saying so explicitly would be arrogance. this is the first i've heard of these persons and i like it
This band fucking rules. Saw them in SF this year w/ Ruby the Hatchet. Both great bands were fantastic and not to discredit RtH but Windhand was just out of this world.
I feel like parking my car at 3am somewhere in my neighborhood with the windows down blasting this song to 11 to let everybody know about Windhand. But im afraid I might summon the devil and make a mess.
The song evokes the feeling of being in the midst of an ancient military march. In the dark of a cloudy night. You as the observer feel alarmed and yet also enlightened. As if you have some part to play, yet you feel the consequences of your actions. You feel sadness, almost the urge to give up, yet it's offset by a sense of rage, or determination.
i think they mean that most of the classic "grunge" bands were various genre groups from seattle that were mislabeled. Nirvana was a punk band that listened to a lot of melvins too, AIC was basically doom with a knack for radio friendly hooks, soundgarden was very influenced by Sabbath etc
Can't say I agree with that. I think the bands you mentioned all had their own unified sound; downbeat, rough, raw sounding rock. There are definitely traces of various other styles in the mix, but to call Nirvana solely a punk band or AIC solely doom metal is quite a stretch.

This shit's too fuckin' dope to make people wait until october. push the release date up!
Infectious. This is a fantastic album. Well done all the way around. Great mix. Can’t wait to see them live.
Relapse records does it again . Awesome band!
This makes me want to buy a van, and paint a wizard on the side of it.
dude same
I'd pay to watch that
Do it!!!
Do it!!
I'll roll the joints, come pick me up in your wizard van and let's drive to outer space. 😂
this guitar sound is massaging my brain
Actually reminds me of Agalloch at times
Same here, so satisfying...
I just found this band and I'm so in love
the rhythm is like grave digging, all glory to doom, full power to the doom engines
Lyrics:
Flat black window panes
Icy veins
Rolling around in the same old cage
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easing the pain
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Skin as thin as rust
Turn to dust
Do what you want to
Do what you must
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easing the pain
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Flat black window panes
Icy veins
Rolling around the same old cage
Everything stays the same
Redder than roses
Easing the pain
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back, again
Hope it don't come back
Thank you.
I heard it as "easy to tame" 🌹which rose bushes are not
Such a great band. The vocals are so soothing and relaxing but has that heaviness with the rest of the band. Reminds me of Alice In Chains a lot, and I love it!
i was thinking the same thing dude.
Yeah like the songs with Jerry on lead.
100% 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fucc yeah, man
Windhand coming back is huge. They have been steadily becoming my personal life soundtrack creators.
Windhand at it again with another chilling gem. Their sound is unreal 💕
Her voice is intoxicating.
Oh Lord, I LOVE IT! It's so groovy and grungy...as if Alice in Chains and Nirvana had a depressive child. Can't wait for the album release!
it's true that this album seems more 'grungy' than the previous releases. Hope it'll be a good thing cause I love these guys !
the whole album is surreal! and "Diablerie" might be the best song of the year for me! 🖤
I am in literal love with the production on this record.
i love how grungy vibe this album have so far, epic
It's almost got a shoegaze styling to it, but heavy af backing tunes. Such a wild combo. I love this song.
Hate to be that guy but still listening in 2021. Gotta boost that algorithm. 🤘
Discovered these guys a few weeks ago and this song has been on repeat. Squeezing all the dopamine I can out of it.

If you find yourself on the fence about seeing them. You should go!!! Take my word. Beautiful show. Beautiful people. They WILL blow you away
I thought the voice was my favorite part of the song, then bam! Those hauntingly beautiful guitar leads!

Windhand's music touches my soul. Need to make them my first concert in many years.
You know I’ve never been too into the sludge/doom type bands but it’s growing on me. I might try to see this band when they come to Nashville if I’m not too busy with school. Also I love her voice!
Smoke sum bud by yourself then jam session you'll like it
Uma das melhores da cena Stoner Doom!!! Hail Windhand 🤘💀🤘
#BR
Escuta Pestadoom, Abstruse, Siciliana, Grungeria, Piratas Siderais...
Make Grunge Great Again
Fantastic! I'm anxious for this album to snake its way into my ears
Awesome! Just like the music that comes out from a flowered wood in a full moon night!

Simple, raw, dark, heavy, haunted, enchanting...and I could go on and on!
Why does the video play a snippet of the song again after it ends? I hate when videos do that
I don't understand the meanings of lyrics... but even without understanding the lyrics it is a very nice song !
Can't wait for this album!
Love your avatar
Thanks man Baroness kicks ass too!
Love that guitar in fuzz tone 🖤
Bassist this is what tone and vocals I would want in my doom/stoner band lol love those vocals
This is beautiful.
What a band...! It's like they took Mudhoney's pinnacle, 'Sweet Young Thing', made it their own and ran with it... Stunning... Not to suggest they are imitating in any sense.
so stoked for this album. The melodies on these tracks are fuckin hauntingly beautiful, the riffs are groovey and sort of spacey, classic dark windhand tinge to it but definitely has a more psych rock kinda groove. Masters of the craft, No bullshit no frills just good music. Love windhand!
Great band!!! greetings from Chile.
I love everything about this band and this song
always awesome
Underrated classic.
i wanted to tell you about how we were just talking about...a contradiction...that implies and prescribes humility...but i realize even saying so explicitly would be arrogance. this is the first i've heard of these persons and i like it
i probably should have just said, "this...it"
🍃🍂🍃Love you Jack E..MuchLove to All of Windhand..Much Respect From New Orleans Louisiana..☆Opal..Stephanie..Opal Enthroned..Aka Big Mama◇
See you Oct 9 at Grasa Grasa!
Awww yes. Lives up to expectations!
on repeat!!! this song made my day!!!
This band fucking rules. Saw them in SF this year w/ Ruby the Hatchet. Both great bands were fantastic and not to discredit RtH but Windhand was just out of this world.
I keep hearing "Mocha Joe come back" and imagining Larry David singing it, jumper cables in hand.
Groovy and heavy. That ending is perfect!
this is like if Alice In Chains, Chevelle, Black Sabbath, Jerry Cantrell as a solo artist, and Pinback fused into one band.
This is one of their best songs yet. Very atmospheric and energetic.
Wow. Randomly found this song trying to look for another song but this is dope as hell. 👍👍👍
One of the best!!!
the cover artwork alone would have justified the purchase back in time, and the music is so badass too WINDHAND!
fully agree man it's there for everybody to see cheers
That Arik? Of Sleep's artwork?
Love this song. Its take me in to this magical place♡ where all my favorite rock bands take me♡
That solo will forever haunt me …
Good shit...as always!
Learned three new spells just by listening
No doubt. I got 6 cats, a raven, and 9 inches on my beard... all with 7 seconds.
PERFECT!!!!!
I feel like parking my car at 3am somewhere in my neighborhood with the windows down blasting this song to 11 to let everybody know about Windhand. But im afraid I might summon the devil and make a mess.
I'm in love with this band
they just keep getting better!
HOLY SHIT !!
THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!
THANKS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION, UA-cam !!
I feel like this is about a war we’re going to have with the elves
I think i know what kind of elves you're talking about
This is pure power!
See you in Richmond
this song teach me how to headbang
Fantastic mix!!! Its really in your face
Wonderful song 🤘

Y'all should make jigsaw puzzles of your album covers.
Esse som dessa guitarra alimenta minha alma. 🤟🏼🔥

Awesome Band

thumbs down no
How did I just discover this band?
great melody
im starting to dig this band and this kinda metal.
My god.... I like this music
Thank you UA-cam for suggesting this awesome stoner doom rock band..smoke up and chill out to this shit
...and, to top it all, she sounds like Joni Mitchell. Amazing.
THIS IS SO GOOD
Sludge & grunge...Slunge...or maybe Grudge :)...all in all, great sound
Filip Ivkovic more stoner-doom than sludge i'd say
grunge is not a genre
How is grunge not a genre?
i think they mean that most of the classic "grunge" bands were various genre groups from seattle that were mislabeled. Nirvana was a punk band that listened to a lot of melvins too, AIC was basically doom with a knack for radio friendly hooks, soundgarden was very influenced by Sabbath etc

❤
Even the band name ... WINDHAND... so chilling
Pro tip: Learn this riff and you can play most Windhand songs 👌
awesome!!!
Oh my goood 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
