King Buffalo Announces Doomsayer Album

King Buffalo will release Doomsayer on December 4 and has announced The Slick and the Dead as the album’s lead single. The song combines Kyuss-style desert rock with Deep Purple-style organ touches and melodic embellishments. Doomsayer contains seven tracks.

Sean Roa said Doomsayer emerged from jam sessions in the band’s new studio space in early 2026. He said the group had no specific goal for the album and instead explored ideas. Roa also described Doomsayer as one of the band’s most open, direct and riff-focused works to date.

King Buffalo will tour North America in the fall, with LA Witch, Handsome Jack and Doomgong as opening acts. The tour begins October 29 in Boulder, Colorado, and ends December 18 in Columbus, Ohio. The band will perform at Fox Theatre in Boulder on October 29, Mohawk in Austin on November 14, Le Poisson Rouge in New York on December 11, and Skully’s in Columbus on December 18.
