Dead Weight is taken from Acid Magus’ 2023 album ‘Hope Is Heavy’.
Self-described as “garage doom on shrooms,” Acid Magus is an experimental heavy rock band from Pretoria, South Africa, formed in 2019. Since emerging from the country’s thriving underground scene, the quartet has established itself as one of South Africa’s most exciting heavy acts.
Blending psychedelic rock, stoner rock, and doom metal with flashes of punk attitude and classic rock swagger, Acid Magus crafts immersive, riff-driven soundscapes that are as crushing as they are hypnotic. Their uncompromising DIY ethos, thunderous grooves, and expansive songwriting have earned them a reputation for delivering powerful, atmospheric music that pushes the boundaries of modern heavy rock.
