Face on Mars is a heavy, fuzz-laden psychedelic rock band based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, known for their raw sound and spacey, high-decibel aesthetic. With deep roots in stoner rock and doom-influenced psych, the band channels thick riffs, haunting vocals, and a cosmic vibe that feels both grounded in the dirt and floating just off-planet.

Their 2014 self-titled album introduced listeners to their sonic universe, featuring standout tracks like “The Last Astronaut,” “Minnows,” and “Screaming Boy.” Songs like “The Bug” and “Psychedelic Jesus” highlight the band’s love for hypnotic grooves, blown-out distortion, and themes that lean into the strange, the spiritual, and the surreal.

With members Drew Kern, Matthew Curtis, Jonathan Lee, Jarod Lumpkin, and Drew White, Face on Mars delivers music that’s as much about texture and atmosphere as it is about heaviness. They’ve shared stages with underground legends like The Obsessed, bringing a fierce live energy that cements their reputation in the Southern psych scene.

For fans of Sleep, Electric Wizard, or early Monster Magnet, Face on Mars is a band worth diving into—loud, trippy, and unapologetically heavy.

Space isn’t empty. It’s full of riffs. Face on Mars proves it.
