Not held back by the structure of a certain genre, Gigantum has a lot of room to evolve and they set into that role with gusto.
âEach song tells its own story and takes you someplace different. They have their own personality. The recordâs listening experience takes you on a journey. We are trying to shake the foundation and rattle the windows.â adds the band.

“Itâs wide ranging heavy music odyssey that spans six hefty heavy rock tracks on ‘Gigantumâ (2024)” – Doomed & Stoned
“Gigantum have released a no-hold barred âNO FUCKS GIVENâ attitude that will no doubt strike a chord with the jaded Doom/Stoner Metal fan currently out there. Excellent and Highly Recommended.” – Outlaws of the Sunâ
â
â“With a flair for the dramatic, Gigantum has a no-nonsense approach to writing and riffing, yet remains free of pretension that fouls up a lot of modern bands with retro influences. This is only the beginning for this band! Jam out Gigantum to 11 and burn one right now!” – Ghost Cult Magazine
“Gigantumâ is an impressive debut that showcases the bandâs ability to traverse different musical territories while maintaining a cohesive and powerful sound. With each track telling its own story, GIGANTUM crafts a listening experience that is both diverse and deeply rooted in heavy rock tradition. This album is a must-listen for fans of bands like Black Sabbath, Clutch, and Fu Manchu who crave a mix of crushing riffs, heavy grooves, and dynamic vocals.8.5/10” – Infrared Magazineâ
â
â“If you can imagine a slightly more psychedelic variety of classic era Black Sabbath that has been given a little bit of a punk attitude and expression then you should have a fair general idea of what to expect from this album. An album I suspect quite a few who tend to enjoy vintage era doom metal might find to be an interesting experience.” – Viking in the Wilderness
“That sort of plot is perfect for a stoner jam like âNecron99,â the closer to their self-titled debut album. Thereâs a good deal of jamming going on in this album” – Heavy Music HQâ
â
â“the group from Los Angeles chooses many unconventional methods and also reveals exciting things here.” – PowerMetal.deâ
â
â“All experienced musicians, this is the work of a fully-fledged group that is ready for anything.
But as for âMonkey King,â for all its doom-laden, Sabbath jamming on Fu Manchu chic, itâs a band that will do things on its own terms. Mia X is capable of whipping up a frenzy, and âFor All My Friendsâ has something truly unsettling about it. If the album as a whole feels like heavy psych and melody are engaged in a battle to the death, then never is that better shown than on the fabulous âForever Dreaming.â… with this self-titled statement, Gigantum are laying down a big marker. 8/10″ – Maximum Volume Music
” an energetic hard rock record with a couple of very good doom songs. Recommended.” – Flying Fiddle Sticksâ
â
â“Groovinâ stoner/doom” – The Moshpit 89.9FM (Madison, WI)â
