Seamount, a German doom metal band from Würzburg, was founded in 2007 by guitarist Tim Schmidt and American singer Phil Swanson. The duo initially developed several songs, which they released as downloads, leading to their debut album ntodrm under Merciless Records in 2008. This release, an abbreviation for "new torch of doom rock music," marked the band's breakthrough moment. Following a successful tour through Germany, Seamount signed with The Church Within Records and released their second album, Light II Truth, in 2009. Subsequent albums includedSacrifice (2010), which was followed by a European tour alongside Serpent Venom and Orchid, and Earthmother (2012). Their fifth album, Nitro Jesus, was released in 2015. Seamount's music is characterized by its classic doom metal style, reminiscent of bands like Black Sabbath and Saint Vitus.
