HIPPIE DEATH CULT Drops Live Banger “Toxic Annihilator”

If you somehow missed the stoner metal fury that is Hippie Death Cult over the years, good news! You can experience their sheer live power right now thanks to “Toxic Annihilator” from the upcoming live record Live at the Star Theater due out May 9.

“We’ve been toying around with the idea of doing a live album for a while now, considering our music has a whole different energy and vibrance to it in any given live situation, so it’s cool to have a well-recorded document of a little snapshot in time from this era of the band’s history,” said Hippie Death Cult of the live record.

“It’s also something we plan on doing more regularly in the future as we progress along our path and evolve. We toured a whole hell of a lot in 2024, both across the United States and Europe as well as Canada and this was our final show of the year, which took place in our hometown of Portland, Oregon.

“We figured it would be a special place to try and capture an audio and video document of a full concert, 1) because Portland has always been our rock, a very supportive hometown with whom we’ve always shared a genuine connection with and 2) it’s a place where we have the resources to have friends help to make it happen on little to no budget. Some things went right that night, some things went wrong. It’s raw. It’s live. It’s us.”

Pre-orders for Live at the Star Theater are available here (and here outside the United States). You can also catch Hippie Death Cult at one of their many tour dates below. Which you’d know you should if you just watched the “Toxic Annihilator” video above.
