The Profile

American stoner/doom band from Maryland led by Dave Sherman, linked to Spirit Caravan, Wretched, and Internal Void. Debuted with a self-titled EP (2000), followed by Taming of the Demons (2002), Vampire Circus (2005, Southern Lord), and Something Wicked (2010). Their sound blends Sabbathian riffs, low tunings, and gritty, hoarse vocals.

Formed in the Maryland doom scene; Dave Sherman (vocals; ex-Spirit Caravan, Wretched) and Eric Little (drums; ex-Internal Void) are cited; debut EP in 2000; albums in 2002, 2005 (Southern Lord), and 2010; style compared to Black Sabbath, Saint Vitus, Kyuss, and Down.

Earthride deal in thick, Sabbathian stoner-doom with hoarse, Lemmy-like vocals from Dave Sherman and Maryland-scene pedigree. Reviews praise Vampire Circus for its filthy, fog-drenched heaviness, view Taming of the Demons as solid, and judge Something Wicked a step back. References to Spirit Caravan, Internal Void, Saint Vitus, Black Sabbath, Kyuss, and Down frame their sound. Expect dirty production, low tunings, and cellar-born riffs.
