American psychedelic groove metal upstarts EverFelt have unleashed their most immersive statement yet with the release of their new album ‘Stirring to Wake’, which arrived on December 15, 2025. Thick with hypnotic riffs, swirling atmospheres, and a dark melodic pull, the album channels the spirit of rock’s ancestors while carving a bold, modern path forward. Drawing influence from the brooding weight of Tool, the haunting harmonies of Alice In Chains, the doom-laced swagger of Black Sabbath, and the mind-expanding mystique of The Doors, EverFelt deliver a sound that feels both familiar and dangerously fresh. ‘Stirring to Wake’ doesn’t simply nod to these influences but absorbs them, reshapes them, and pushes them into deeper, heavier territory. The band shares, “Music is the cornerstone of our existence. With ‘Stirring to Wake’, we wanted to capture the haze, the heaviness, and the emotion that lives at the core of who we are—and leave a mark on anyone willing to take the journey with us.”
Formed in the summer of 2022, EverFelt is driven by the haunting vocals and introspective lyricism of Adam Steglich, the expressive and textured guitar work of Corey Robinson, the powerful low-end foundation of Ryan Moore on bass, and the dynamic pulse and color of Danny Furlong on percussion. While their roots span everything from Audioslave and Pink Floyd to Slayer, the band’s identity stands firmly on its own as an intoxicating mix of psychedelic textures, groove-driven heaviness, and melodies that linger long after the final note fades. With ‘Stirring to Wake’, EverFelt deepen their commitment to music that resonates beyond the surface. These are songs meant to sink in slowly, blur the edges, and stay with you. The album was engineered by Shelby Preklas of Loud and Clear Studio, who helped bring clarity, weight, and atmosphere to EverFelt’s evolving sonic vision, striking a balance between raw power and expansive depth. For fans of heavy music with depth, darkness, and soul, this is a trip worth taking.
