« The Scorpion In The Sand » is the second single taken from the WARLUNG upcoming new album Optical Delusions. Their upcoming full-length ‘Optical Delusions’ is more fantastical than it initially seems. Gratuitously saturated guitar kicks off the track « The Scorpion in the Sand, » invigorating riff-rock in its most classic form, but prolonged exposure reveals a psychedelic core that jams even as it warps your mind.

WARLUNG took the heavy rock underground by storm in 2017 with the release of their debut album « Sleepwalker ». Playing festivals such as End Hip End It Fest and opening for acts like Wo Fat and Dead Meadow, they quickly gained a cult following and high praise by both fans and critics alike. Less than a year later, they entered the studio to record their second album, which was released in February 2019. Immortal Portal hit #14 of the Doom Charts and was included to Weedian’s first artist compilation.
WARLUNG continued to host various breweries and festivals alike SXSW, and quickly became a fan favorite within the local rock community and abroad. Their audience grew as they opened for bands such as High Reeper, Forming the Void or King Buffalo. Their upcoming, hotly anticipated album « Optical Delusions » is slated for a release in October 2020, with a pre-sale to start on July 2nd with Heavy Psych Sounds.
