Official press release:
Louisiana Stoner Metallers Boudain will release Way of the Hoof, the band’s debut full-length, on April 20. The album is the follow-up to the group’s highly regarded self-titled 2013 EP and is a storm of Space, Pork, and Riffs! Check out the Way of the Hoof teaser video below:
Recorded at SpaceLab 420 Studios, Way of the Hoof is perfect for anyone who enjoys the kind of groove that makes you want to smoke out, grill out, and chill with the swine. Hailing from Monroe, LA and featuring heavy (literally and figuratively) influence from genre-legends like Sleep, The Melvins, Kyuss and Fu Manchu, Boudain is ready to unleash their sun-blistered, misery-laden brand of stoner metal on audiences nationwide with Way Of the Hoof. Stream new track “CODA” and their cover of Blue Öyster Cult’s “Godzilla”, and/or pre-order the album via the Bandcamp player below:

Boudin is a Cajun sausage dish that is most frequently rolled into a ball, battered, and deep-fried. Coincidentally, Boudain is also one of the heaviest bands you’re bound to find North of Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana, a state known for both its crispy, fried pig fat, as well as its crispy, fried, pig-fat-soaked stoner metal bands.
