The artwork for Miasmic Purple Smoke, on your turntable!
Dye sublimated via Glowtronics. Print turned out great.
1/16" thick, 16 oz, 100% polyester felt
Due to the size and not wanting to fold it, the slipmat will be shipped flat in thin cardboard mailer, meaning shipping can't be combined for this item!
Please note that ordering anything else with this preorder will delay everything ordered with it, please do separate orders if you want other items sooner.
27 x 27" Matte polyester tapestry made by Glowtronics. Print reacts to UV/ Blacklight and turned out ridiculously cool. Tapestry is dye sublimated, laser cut to shape, edges are sewn over, and grommets are added to the corners for hanging.
We've got a big version of this we are planning on using for a back drop at shows, and until now this was only available in our limited edition MPS bundles! Due to popular demand, we've decided to separate it out!

Black cotton dice bag with a rope tie emblazoned with a gold bog wizard logo. Put your dice in it, be cool as hell.
Can be added on to any order with free shipping!
INTERNATIONAL ORDERS: In order to save on shipping and offer something cheap for overseas orders (looking at you, Australia), we will be shipping these in an envelope. HOWEVER, to do so we'll need to untie the knot in the rope tie so it can lay flatter. Tie it back up on each end when you get it and enjoy the dollars saved at the cost of your brief labor.

He controls the end, and all that you believe
He performs the cry that ends your mortal plea
Seek, consume the fuel, a wrought epiphany
Feel the hate, the rage, a barbarian creed
Barbaria
Barbaria
Barbaria
Barbaria
Crush, destroy, and tear their bodies limb from limb
Smash the face, and drink the tears of misery
Strip the flesh from bone, with axe in hand he cleaves
Bow before your god, a mad berserker spree
He left his noble life behind
The future free and undefined
His master studied from afar
Their paintings twisted and bizarre
A twisted grin across his mask
A callous focus on his task
In the shadows a matte black knife
Flick of the wrist to end a life
From the shadows he stalks his prey
The swiftest blade, then slips away
Darker than the blackest night
Visage a twisted awful fright
Labyrinth of madness was unsealed
A broken mind that can't be healed
Their fates became all intertwined
The labyrinth cleared and redesigned
Take what can be taken
Break what can be broken
Steal what has been stolen
Breathe a life awoken
Enter the mire of the ancient one
Described by scholars as a myth
Imbue the power of a former world
An acrid vapor on the wind
Breathe deep inhale miasmic purple smoke
The mood grows grim as it sets in
Defies all logic what's in front of me
The haze is rushing through my limbs
Wait
How
Why
Who
Wait
Whoa
Why
Who
My inner voice says break free from this world
Screaming the obvious at me
A figure forms in front of where I stand
The evil wizard starts to grin
With streaks of white hair and blue glowing eyes
His wooden pipe in withered hand
Speaking archaic tongues that means my doom
Reality has melted, man
STUCK IN THE MUCK!
Writhing and screaming and breathing and clawing
Stuck in the muck and you're sinking, you're falling
Coughing and sucking, the mud you're inhaling
Pulling and sticking, your movements are futile
Ripping and tearing and gnashing but failing
Nothing you can do will free you from dying
Crying and flailing, the swamp uncomplying
Nothing you can do will free you from dying
Need
Consume
Destroy
Feed
Give
Satisfy
You
Belong
To me
Knead
Consume
Destroy
Cloaked in a coat of ashen black
Poised and ready to attack
Absorbing all surrounding light
Claws at your face in twilight
Where you go she is not far,
Ignorant of what you are
Screaming in blind anger
Live to serve none but her
Loving embrace of darkness
With sharpened talons around us
The void beckons
The void beckons
The void beckons
The void beckons
about
Bog Wizard's sophomore release, Miasmic Purple Smoke. Heavier and nerdier than ever.
Published via The Dregs Records
"Miasmic Purple Smoke possesses all the fundamentals of a truly riveting fantasy tale and manages to steer clear of filler and repetition. It might wear a genre label, but it isn't afraid to transcend the anticipated frontiers and bring us an original campaign."
- Noah Nihility Zalve via The Chronicnaut Collective
"Miasmic Purple Smoke is a sometimes caustic, sometimes psychedelic, always crushing journey of mesmeric riffs and ponderous rhythms. This is the type of album to experience from start to finish, without interruption."
- Hayduke X via Moshpitnation
"Bog Wizard set the bar high with From The Mire, and arguably even higher when they turned up the aggression a tad on Four Tales of the Strange. Miasmic Purple Smoke, however, feels like their best work yet."
- Sleeping Village Reviews
"The murky nomenclature is a little misleading, though, in that it doesn't tell the full story: while the tones are thick indeed, the band's doom metal is heavily driven by Sabbathian tradition, bouncing along with clever basslines and jazzy beats to accompany the proto-metal riffs and wailed vocals."
-Ted Nubel via Invisible Oranges
"Miasmic Purple Smoke is a fitting next step in the evolution of Bog Wizard. Despite the fact that it’s only been about a year since their full length debut, and only three since their first EP, you can hear how much they’ve grown as a unit, and as songwriters."
-Tom Hanno via Doomed & Stoned
"A little bit of a shake-up here and there with the changing of a few elements would typically be more than enough to make for an engaging and even somewhat eclectic effort, but it’s clear that Bog Wizard was not content to leave it at that with everything that they’ve performed within “Miasmic Purple Smoke” with every minute playing off the rest gloriously to the point that I can’t help but find immense joy in the pits of fantastical mystery that this album presents to us."
-Vinterd via Head-Banger Reviews
"All in all, Miasmic Purple Smoke is a very fun take on doom/stoner metal’s most endearing tropes."
-Étienne Vézina via HeavyMusicHQ
"You don’t have to be a D&D fan to enjoy this music. It is great slow, old school doom with some keys mixed in and just the right attitude. Recommended."
-Wayne Edwards via Flying Fiddle Sticks Music Blog
"Michigan's nerd army is back another great full-length release. The Dregs Records publish an album that makes the audience wander through the sickest swamps, the darkest dungeons, and the most impressive landscapes of the Dungeons & Dragon universe."
-MangoWave
"if you dig a crazy and very atmospheric mix of Stoner. Doom and Sludge you are in for 41 minutes of crazy as fuck fun."
-Dennis Eikenkötter via Reflections of Darkness/ Schwermetallisch Reviews
"Bog Wizard release what can only be described as their finest work to date. Things are different this time around though, there's an ominous tone and a darkness that wasn't there before. Things feel more dire and serious and this tension has been woven into the music. It's almost as if the optimistic heroes have begun to be worn down by all of the darkness that they have witnessed on their journey."
-James Sweetlove via Cave Dweller Music
"Fans of fat riffs and nerdy shit, rejoice, because Miasmic Purple Smoke is an upgrade on From the Mire in every way.
...
This scratches that itch for grungy, plodding riffs that make you want to bang your head while also including enough psychedelic twists and stoner vocals to make you want to grab your pipeweed and minifigs."
-Kep via Noob Heavy
"Miasmic Purple Smoke is the perfect follow up to their last full length, From The Mire, as it expands upon that album, and takes on its own identity in doing so."
-Tom Hanno via The Sleeping Shaman
"Miasmic Purple Smoke (The Dregs Records) continues down the path of 2020’s From The Mire, operating on a mix of similarly hypnotic riff patterns, the dankest of fuzz tones, and primarily echoing growls with the occasional clean howling through."
-Chris Latta via Ghost Cult Magazine
"On one hand the band will gladly slide into a version of the style closer to the introverted, monumental landscapes a band like Electric Wizard explored early on in their career, but on the other hand they will just as gladly explore a more typical, cleaner classic Black Sabbath oriented form and expression.
...
A production for those who enjoy a retro-oriented doom metal band that provides a fair degree of variation in style, sound and expression."
-The Viking in the Wilderness
"All told, if you'd fancy a mellower, laid back, but subtly menacing sound in the vein of bands like Dopesmoker, Bongripper, Belzebong, Weedeater and Cough, this trio is onto something..."
-Autothrall via From the Dust Returned
