Formed around 2016–2017 as a deadly earnest Pink Floyd tribute filtered through doom metal, Doom Side of the Moon is led by guitarist Kyle Shutt of The Sword. The project seeks to honor Floyd’s legacy with heavy, hypnotic reinterpretations that push the classic into new emotional territory. The debut full-length, Doom Side of the Moon, released in 2017 on Music Theories Recordings / Mascot Label Group, reimagines Dark Side of the Moon through a crushing, guitar-forward lens. An unexpected follow-up arrived in 2018 as the Encore EP, self-released and framing more of the band’s signature atmosphere. While primarily a studio and live project, the group has become a notable case study in the crossover between classic progressive rock and modern doom metal.
