Satanic Bat is a 4-piece heavy rock cartel hailing from Pennsylvania. Their sound crushes up giant horse pills of southern rock, 70's psychedelia, blues, doom, and even boogie jazz in a heavy metal mortar & pestle and passes it around the party. Tight structured riffs twist around spacey improv jams. Every set's a different trip. But you can always bet yer ashes that the Bat's keepin' the roach lit for the bygone days of vociferous acid rock.

The band was founded in 2005 as a 2-piece experiment in stoner volume, anchored by the thunderous bashing of Sven Sobeck and wet-cement rock riffs from JD Howell. After a short period of crumbling the walls of an abandoned church basement, they welcomed the spacey tones and monster pedal collection of experimental guitarist Dave Warren. Finally, the solid bottom end hammering of Jon Milliren completed the bastard brew after a year's worth of shows logged without a bass player.

With the full lineup in place, the Bat has spent the last few years jamming heavy and pummeling the stages of the Eastern U.S. along side some of the finest names on the current stoner/sludge/doom radar including Dixie Witch, Saviours, Orodruin, Valkyrie, Treasure Cat, Negative Reaction, Admiral Browning, Rebreather, Black Skies, Countach, Village of Dead Roads, Lo Pan, Argus, and lots more.

In addition to several self-released EP's, Satanic Bat has recently put forth the full-length “Tales from the Southland, Tales from the Sea” via the OSSR label. On top of several glowing reviews, the record has received college radio and commercial airplay nationwide, as well as internationally in France, UK, Poland, Norway, Sweden, Czech Republic, and Chile.
