GRAVE NEXT DOOR UNVEILS NEW VIDEO FOR “BLOOD MOON HYMN” OFF ACCLAIMED ALBUM SORRY NO CANDY

Michigan’s Grit-Soaked Stoner Metal Trio Continues to Burn Bright with Crushing Visuals and 2025 Tour Plans

Michigan stoner metal trio Grave Next Door has just released the official music video for “Blood Moon Hymn”, a standout track from their sophomore album Sorry No Candy, out now via Black Doomba Records.

The video showcases the band’s raw, unfiltered energy with a dark, doom-laden aesthetic that captures the emotional intensity of the song—cementing Grave Next Door’s growing reputation for blending bleak reality with bone-crushing riffs.

Sorry No Candy, released in October 2024, builds upon the heavy legacy established in their 2022 debut Sanctified Heathen. With a sharper sound, emotionally charged themes, and tighter arrangements produced by Tommy Stewart, the band is more powerful than ever. The addition of Luke Strand on bass completes the lineup, propelling the trio into a new era of sonic force.

Formed by brothers Patrick (drums) and Anthony Salerno (guitar/vocals), the band draws inspiration from legends like Black Sabbath, The Melvins, and Black Flag, while staying rooted in personal stories of addiction, survival, and relentless grit.

With Sorry No Candy now unleashed and the “Blood Moon Hymn” video drawing praise, Grave Next Door are setting their sights on an expansive 2025 tour, including planned stops across the East Coast, Midwest, and Southern U.S., as well as key festival appearances like Maryland Doom Fest and Appalachian Noise Fest.

Join the Grave Nation and witness the next chapter in this band’s relentless ascent.
