Slowbro are an instrumental stoner/doom metal band from Coventry, UK. Dual wielding 8-string guitars, they interweave bone-crushing heaviness with ethereal melodies and a psychedelic edge that warps the senses. To date the band has released one album and one split while largely performing in England. The band's name is derived from a generation one Pokemon of the same name.[1]

History
