It's been five years since 2020's Volume I — a massive endeavor that brought something wholly unique to the doom arena, courtesy of Stygian Bough. The collective, formed between Bell Witch and Aerial Ruin, is now setting the stage for their sophomore effort, Volume II, which follows a towering listening experience unlike few that year (and beyond). Though details for its release are scarce at the moment, the band shared a Bobby Cochran-directed teaser trailer to ease eager audiences into what awaits.

Check out the teaser for Volume II below and if you're in Europe, head below for Winter 2026 Tour Dates where you can expect Volume II in full.
