MIDHAVEN - Progressive Sludge Metal from Mumbai, India - April/May Tour 2026
22.05.2026 , Triebwerk

"After about seven years on the sidelines of the scene, Mumbai metallers Midhaven return with more urgency and intensity than ever before on their second full-length album Of the Lotus & the Thunderbolt. Steeped in a pot of philosophy, spirituality and metaphysics, the trio’s riffs, growls and piercing melodies bubble at a pace that’s hulking (“Codeman”) and meditative (“The Immanent Effervescence of Sorrow,” “Bhairav”) in turns. “Para Brahman” starts off ruthlessly visceral and “Primal Song” piles it on. Hints of their 2014 album Spellbound appear on the gargantuan penultimate track “Mahakaal.” The opus – in intent, heaviness and length – remains “Zhitro,” a grandiose salute that takes from stoner/prog bands like Mastodon as well as French metallers Gojira, making Of the Lotus & the Thunderbolt one of the slickest releases in Indian metal this year."
