The Power of Sludge and Doom: An Interview with Swamp Coffin

Swamp Coffin is a sludge/doom band from Rotherham, England that has been making waves in the music scene with their heavy, fuzz-laden sound. The band's name might evoke images of dark swamps and coffins, but it's actually inspired by a tough decision between 'Swamp Cough' or 'Swamp Coffin'.

In an exclusive interview, we spoke to Shawn Denton (bass), Jon Rhodes (guitar/vocals), and Wistow (drums) about their music, influences, and the thriving local scene in Yorkshire.

When asked about their gear setup, Denton reveals that volume and fuzz are the key ingredients for creating their signature sound. 'All of the releases by 27b/6 David Thorne is my hero,' he says, citing his inspiration from Ozzy Osbourne's autobiography. Rhodes adds that they're self-taught, with a passion for death metal and its riff-based styles.

The band members are proud to be part of a thriving local scene in Yorkshire, which has produced some incredible bands like Hidden Mothers, Temple Steps, Son of Boar, Gandalf the Green, Drawn from Ichor, Spaztik Monkey, Kurokuma, Ba'al, Deltanaught, and Blind Monarch. 'We're lucky to have such a thriving local scene,' says Denton.

Swamp Coffin's music is all about creating that big, nasty groove, as Rhodes puts it. Their sound is a perfect blend of slow NOLA riffs and fast-paced death metal elements. Wistow jokes about needing to hit the gym if they wanted to play anything faster, but ultimately, it's all about capturing that heavy, fuzz-laden sound.

As we wrap up our interview, the band members proudly declare their love for Yorkshire as the best place in the world. And with their music and attitude, it's hard not to agree.
