Brutal Panda Records announce the signing of Austin, TX quartet Sweat Lodge. Formed in 2010, the hard rock / heavy psych / progressive rock / proto-metal band have released a self-titled EP (2013) and a full-length Talismana (2015), the latter of which will see a vinyl reissue via Brutal Panda this summer. Sweat Lodge are known for their vigorous live shows and have performed with YOB, Acid King, Earthless, The Sword, Pentagram and many others.

Pre-orders for the vinyl reissue of Talismana are available here while the album can be streamed in full below:

Sweat Lodge are currently on the road with fellow Texan hard rockers Crypt Trip and have been announced as support for the upcoming summer tour with Sweden's Monolord and California's Beastmaker. A full listing of dates is available below.

Additionally, Sweat Lodge will enter the studio later this year to record a new EP entitled Tokens For Hell, which will see a late 2016 release via Brutal Panda. Details will be announced shortly.

The band commented on the signing: "Sweat Lodge is really excited about the vinyl reissue of Talismana and our new EP. Killer roster, killer people! Look out for us this summer with Monolord and Beastmaker!"
