Book Of Wyrms (USA) - Megacelestial | Heavy Psych Metal
Book of Wyrms are a US four-piece heavy psych metal band formed in 2014, blending classic heavy metal power, psychedelic atmospheres, fuzz-driven riffs, and cosmic synthesizer textures. Originally brought together by a shared love of Hawkwind and ZZ Top, the band have steadily developed a distinctive sound that combines melodic heavy metal with space-rock explorations and commanding female vocals.
Their discography includes Sci-Fi/Fantasy (2017), Remythologizer (2019), and Occult New Age (2021), establishing their presence in the American underground through extensive touring and performances alongside acts such as Weedeater, Pallbearer, Bongzilla, King Buffalo, Torche, and Howling Giant.
With the addition of drummer Brian Wiltz in 2024, Book of Wyrms entered a new creative phase, embracing a faster, dirtier, and more aggressive approach to songwriting. Their fourth full-length album, Megacelestial, marks this evolution, combining the melodic intensity of 80s Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Scorpions, and Motörhead with their unmistakable psychedelic identity. Mixed by Rob Wrong (Wrong Way Recording, Witch Mountain), the album showcases a more direct and powerful sound while retaining the band's adventurous spirit.
Megacelestial will be released on December 11, 2026, via Argonauta Records on CD, colored vinyl, and digital formats.
