01. FOURTH DIMENSION Myriad walls Shades in motion Boundless sounds Evil rapture Hazy eyes Weeping tension Brewing sweat from An obscene nation Right or left turn In a space too wide Handcuffs clutch my wrists behind Rat race crawl, a guilty ride Inside God’s light I stumble blind Out of sight Out of mind Out of time Cloning bad thoughts From wicked siblings Scanning sounds, dripping feelings Mind is blank, My bones are worn All my limbs are numb I’m shocked into submission My hands are tied I plunge into a fourth dimension of wasted time I run in a cold existence Without a single friend The silence without resistance Lies inside… Until the end

In the Mire 03:51
02. IN THE MIRE Small-minded fools Brains ran by frauds Loathing overtime Where each word sounds so white Thoughts slumber now Like a loaded gun Give yourself to the reapers Of your dream sublime You share the voice of the weaker sections of mankind Spring yourself to the leaders of men Ruled by social liars How long will you wallow? In the mire Grey minds think a like Always shading war Spreading aggression Without a cure I’ll be in your circle of trust Purging Christian liars You kneel and you wallow In the mire The gleam of madness in your eyes The delight of low replies The attraction within your lies It’s a pledge to the wrong, To the fool, you can’t keep under control Segregation and other crimes Things you shouldn’t advertise You count the clock that tells their time, A clock that leaves you hypnotized

04. BROTHERHOOD OF ETERNAL LOVE Baby boomers wake up There’s a new world to turn on Free every enslaved mind Sunshine makers, spirit knives Crazy wonderers look down Into oblivion spinning round Downward spiral, magnetic eyes A vision of sweetness with a twist of lime Dirty leaders, shut up Empty speeches inflate wars Acids neutralize the feeble pride, Free thinkers, new mankind You share the same desire To make peace not war As the ones who tend the fire Just to let you burn Rebellious nature drives you insane Poems are diaries of madness Degrading trips through memory lanes A shell of bravado and sadness You share the same desire To make peace not war As the ones who tend the fire Just to let you burn Floating on pills and fancy champagne Cultural, ephemeral existence Nihilists preachers shift to cocaine Hoping for their own transcendence Indulgent souls, way out of control Lithium rechargeable love Sunshine chills, mind illegal thrills A void needed to be filled One mission, utopian relief Warriors for the peace, holy vision Brothers, with worn memories Fall from family trees, a time of wonder Bright colors a trip to set us free A kind reality, eternal lovers Now, the ones who walk the ground Have a world to shut down

Sleepy Warm 03:15
05. SLEEPY WARM A fire in the rain Burns me again Wake in a dawn like thunder Gasping for air in wonder Drown alone, where boiling waters flow Ride alone, blistered by the cold Lost my home, to the eye of a storm Snow-blind I roam, in the sleepy warm Bad dreams come true Falling on abuse The night stings like a needle, when I take a shot of evil In a time I always lose Drown alone, where boiling waters flow Ride alone, blistered by the cold Lost my home, to the eye of a storm Snow-blind I roam, in the sleepy warm Pulling down the moon Slumber on my graven floor Light is dripping from a spoon, before dawn Digging empty holes Murky waters striding on Life is dripping from a spoon until I’m gone Drown alone, where boiling waters flow Ride alone, blistered by the cold Lost my home, to the eye of a storm Snow-blind I roam, in the sleepy warm

08. THE GREAT DIVIDE Life… Mankind’s ravenous dreams collide With a bang at the end of life We strive with our faith alive When it’s time to cross the Great Divide Life… Mankind, lethally unwise, Bleeding lands, breaking hands of allies We’ll die, left behind, With our heads in the sands of time Life… We’re blazing our future with bleeding dust While our souls are poisoned to burst in the sky We will die Could we dream of a paradise lost? When our beds are burnt from a frost so divine, So unkind We’ll cast the embers of God’s winter sun We’ll spread the ashes of the chosen ones in a cold hole, In a coal world We’ll be the sand In a wasteland A change must start now And we all know how Life… And we all know how

The Fall 06:30
07. THE FALL Reality? Insanity? Illusions become true Mindless void turns full I watch myself fall I see a light down here on the floor Then the room groans I see a smile so clear I can’t ignore And say goodbye to my limbo Feeling free Loosing gravity Floating on a glow Tears no longer flow When fullness stands for nothing Shaping heaven on your mind Truth reverses blindness You’re living but you’re not alive I watch myself fall I see a light down here on the floor Then the room groans I see a smile so clear I can’t ignore And say goodbye to my limbo You fell into pieces alone Into darkness you felt so low In the realm of your senses, You always drained yourself from light Crying in your hiding places, going blind Fill your empty spaces, with glow Enjoy the brightness on your own When fullness stands for nothing Truth reverses blindness

The Oracle 04:57
10. THE ORACLE Confusion, inception It’s a wonder how the mind lies Wide vision is the power Over people lacking life Perceptive, prophetic Revelations with closed eyes Intuition, superstition Bones changing wiser times In your void I can see you drifting I rise while you bow down To the Oracle The Oracle Grow up wrong, submissive Strain the adult like a child Same questions, no answers On your road to exile In your void I can see you drifting I rise while you bow down To the Oracle The Oracle In the source of your salvation Beats the heart of misery Clever witching art Brings you to your knees Your faith in staged creations is blind I pick present over future You look up while I look down To the Oracle The Oracle

Doom Machine 06:57
12. DOOM MACHINE Lie to me as we slowly cease to be Who will stand alone? With a pitiable moan Sons of greed drive the strength unknown To defeat fake enemies With a vast machine Doom machine, God unseen Am I a fool? Fascinated to presume That some of us are strong Can we prove them wrong? Look at me Mr. Digital clone Accept the will to shut down This engine on full steam Doom machine, God unseen Are we pacifist soldiers? Liars, lovers, saints? We’re just a stretch of borrowed time Hungry media whores Mouth taste of wars Settle up the score Cowards reign behind closed doors Hell is getting colder Floating the plastic seas To emerge on another extinction spree Do you think you’re safe? You will bleed the same You won’t be blessed from blame On your gold paved ground You’ll lie down Deep in the ground zero Of our shattered souls Down in the ground zero Of our blasted holes A downward spiral A world beyond control At the edge of denial We watch it explode, watch it explode…

13. GOD FEEDS THE SWINE The eradication of common sense Expose the weak men To violent acts The execution of innocence New generation? God feeds the swine When you call your pearls to shine When did your weakness turn into strength? I mourn the blindness In your silence How will you claim your deliverance? Divine intervention? God feeds the swine When you call your pearls to shine When your crown burns like a fevered naked flame Will you feel pain, guilt or shame? Who will you blame? God feeds the swine When you call your pearls to shine

14. FEEL SURREAL Spending time jumbling senses Shaping the sounds of a din Colored faces of self-destruction The vacuum drags you in Abstract enough stimulation To get lost away With the shadows of tomorrow The colors of today Feel all you see Surreal, your space to be Reaching out to no one Blackening the sun Shut the light out of your future See your reflection run The fractal figures your mind can trigger Are darker than the night A new dimension behind your mirror Hear the sounds of sight Feel all you hear So real, your space to… Feel all you hear So real, your space to be Wind moves like the fire It sounds like a choir Whispering the colors that always burn Echoing the silence of a distant sun Wind moves like the fire It sounds like a choir Whispering the colors that always burn Echoing the silence of a distant sun Be the fire Hear the fire See the fire Feel the fire Feel all you see Surreal, your space to… Feel all you see Surreal, your space to… Feel… Surreal…

15. RED ATLANTIS Red falls at the end of the Earth Mystic purple haze Skull walls, drifting mist Pillars of a broken age Statues of hanging priests In spiritual isolation Sketches of perished beasts Bleeding devastation Red Atlantis Marble faithful Gods Sealed inside their temples Drowning in a river of blood Devil’s warmest welcome Dead stream, a bleeding core Emerge from an endless well Lost in a vast abyss Left in the bowels of hell Red Atlantis Filled with deep devotion, feel the shadows flow Sink the mighty ocean, into the unknown Death floats right above, whispering low Silent reverence spoken ages ago Death floats right above, whispering low Red Atlantis

about

Captured live at Generator Music Studios in Sintra, Portugal by Miguel “Veg” Marques, the band’s fourth album stands as their densest output to date soaked in kaleidoscopic riffing and hypnotic interludes. A multi-textured, mind-bending audio excursion, Doom Machine carries with it the warmth and soul of a band full of fresh vigor and perhaps the demons of these tumultuous times.

#8 on the January Doom Charts

4.5 / 5 - “Miss Lava have made one of the most homogeneous, brilliant and three dimensional albums of rock/metal in recent times” – Metal Hammer Portugal

“Miss Lava serves up fully loaded nachos on top of a buffalo wing pizza.” – Metal Sucks

“…the first essential stoner metal release of 2021.” – Outlaws Of The Sun

“… one hook after the other, careening with desert-inspired purpose through ‘Fourth Dimension’ and ‘In The Mire’ at the outset like an all-grown-up Kyuss...” – The Obelisk

“… the next godfathers-in-the-making of Desert Rawk. In conclusion, all hail Miss Lava!” – Rock ‘N’ Roll Fables

“… best kept secret in the stoner rock genre …” – Riff Lords

“Make sure you blast this album loud and proud, it’ll surely stay in your brain for a while, and the only way to please yourself will be by hitting the play button on your favorite stream platform or in your record player, or wherever you prefer to listen to music.” – Ghost Cult Mag

“Doom Machine was borne out of a duality of existence, blessed with the burden of life and wracked by the loss of it. It represents the beating heart as much as the ash it will inevitably turn to. MISS LAVA feels profoundly primal with their execution of stoner rock, running hot and unchained like a volcanic eruption.” – Everything Is Noise

“(…)it is a testament to Miss Lava’s growth as songwriters, to the power of overcoming tragedy, to the ebbing and flowing of the organic forces which all life depends upon. Evolve and adapt. Whether or not this is something we will take on board remains to be seen but rest assured, Doom Machine is proof it can be and is the sound of it being done so gloriously and elegantly.” – The Motorfuzzin’ Ibex

“Talk about accuracy in a description. Small Stone Records heralds ‘the finest in fuzz since 1995,’ and this new album from Lisbon, Portugal, doom groovers MISS LAVA more than delivers with killer tracks such as ‘Fourth Dimension’… With plenty of retro feel married to some pretty surprising turns — the short instrumental pauses are all oozing psychedelic echo — this is music for fans of Dessert Session-style buzz.” – Vancouver Sun

“…a bouncy slab of desert flavored stoner rock right in line with the lies of Fu Manchu or Kyuss.” – Void Dispatch

“It's as heavy as it is melodic as it is psychedelic, and if you're unfamiliar with Miss Lava but into anything from Blue Cheer to Uncle Acid to King Gizzard, you should check this out.” – Brooklyn Vegan
