Presidente Judas - Boatman (Single 2024)

The ferryman of the underworld. Greek mythology. Charon, son of darkness and night, is the boatman who takes souls across the river Styx, also known as the river of pain, taking them to Hades to be judged. The deceased were buried with gold coins in their mouths so they could pay for the crossing. Otherwise, the soul would wander for 100 years on the banks of the river until Charon granted the free journey to these souls.

The new track by Brazilian stoner/doom metal band Presidente Judas, the powerful single “Boatman,” rescues the mythological theme to bring to light a theme that also relates to current times, in allusion to the lost souls that wander aimlessly in the life when the cost is not paid.

Recorded at Estúdio Navimãe in the city of Cerquilho/SP, with production by Naamã Maragno, with lyrics developed by the singer Sara, “Boatman” begins a new cycle for the band and delivers a promising bias with musical influences that come from names such as Electric Wizard, Black Road and Monolord, evoking lysergic and atmospheric nuances, driven by Sara’s always magnetic vocals and packed with a visceral and powerful instrumental outfit.

The band Presidente Judas, formed in 2019 in the city of Tatuí/São Paulo and currently residing in Cerquilho, started as a project strongly influenced by Black Sabbath, Punk and Psicodelia, but little by little theprogress in his development was bringing new influences and inspirations, carrying the band towards a natural evolution process. Currently formed by Sara (vocals), Ygor (guitar), Felipe (bass) and Rodrigo (drums) the band released the EP "Presidente Judas" in 2023, and now brings "Boatman" as the harbinger of an even more mature and solid phase.
