“Moths” is the latest video and single from Oregon’s DRY WEDDING. The track comes off the band’s upcoming new full-length, The Back Of Beyond, set for release on July 31st through Vesperian/Metal Blade Records.
DRY WEDDING is a Portland-based outfit operating at the intersection of post punk, gothic country, noise rock, black metal, and doom. Now presenting their third album, the band continues to evolve a sound that balances restraint and intensity, combining raw physical performance with a strong atmospheric and narrative dimension. Across their work, DRY WEDDING has developed an identity that feels both deliberate and unpredictable, equally focused on sonic detail and visceral impact.
Following the release of “Arrowhead,” which introduced listeners to the band’s most intense and expansive material to date, “Moths” deepens the sonic palette. The track leans into restraint and atmosphere while maintaining the raw physicality that defines the DRY WEDDING’s sound.
Comments vocalist/guitarist Davey Ferchow, “As we began writing our third album, we wanted to push certain sonic elements further than ever. ‘Moths’ was an exercise in patience and restraint, and it quickly became a band favorite. Our new music video blends raw performance footage with Lynchian visuals to reflect the song’s lyrical themes, the tenebrous parts of ourselves that we hope to conceal and the all-consuming impact of bringing them to light.”
Directed by Olivia Bayer, the video reinforces this duality, combining direct, unfiltered performance with a more abstract visual language. The result is a piece that mirrors the internal tension at the core of the track, where control and collapse coexist.
With this new material, DRY WEDDING continues to refine a sound that resists easy categorization, moving fluidly between genres while maintaining a distinct identity rooted in intensity, texture, and emotional weight.
The Back Of Beyond was recorded and mixed by Adam Pike at Toadhouse Recording and mastered by Adam Gonsalves at Telegraph Mastering in Portland, Oregon. The album artwork was created by Adam Burke of Nightjar Illustration, with layout and design by John Haughm.
The Back Of Beyond will be available on jewel case CD, cassette, and digital formats as well as vinyl (in Black and Sea Blue).
