Knoxville, TN’s psychedelic doom upstarts Sun Mantra have been featured in Doomed Nation 's Doomed Confessionary series, offering fans a deeper look into the mindset behind the music. Guitarist Josh Drinnen shares raw and honest reflections on the creative process and what it means to channel pure heaviness. A standout quote from the interview perfectly captures their ethos:

“Don’t think shit.”
The more you overthink, the more you're shooting yourself in the foot.

The interview arrives on the heels of their latest sonic assault, the double single “FERTILIZER / WRATH” , released April 4, 2025 — a thunderous blend of doom metal and heavy psych for fans of Eyehategod, Sleep, and Black Sabbath . The two-track offering cements Sun Mantra’s reputation for creating slow-burning, fuzz-drenched rituals.

Formed in 2023, the trio — Leo Dyer (drums), Josh Drinnen (guitar), and Harrison Hammett (bass/vocals) — have quickly made a name for themselves through intense live shows and critically praised recordings. From Metal Chaos Fest to Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest , and with an upcoming appearance at Maryland Doom Fest 2025 , Sun Mantra is proving to be one of the most vital new voices in underground doom.

For fans of crushing riffs, ritualistic vocals, and cosmic fuzz, Sun Mantra is not to be missed.
