About

Wyatt E. is a Belgian drone/doom band founded in 2015 by guitarists Sébastien von Landau and Stéphane Rondia. Their music weaves traditional Middle Eastern instruments - saz, sitar, viola - into crushing doom riffs and hypnotic percussion, building a continuous conceptual narrative around Babylonian mythology and the ancient Near East. Alongside studio albums, the band has scored a film soundtrack and performed Roadburn-commissioned collaborative works, establishing themselves as one of the more distinctive voices in contemporary doom.
