Earthride is an American doom metal band from Maryland.

01Biography

Earthride formed in 2000 after the demise of Dave Sherman's previous band, Spirit Caravan. They released their self-titled EP the same year on their own Earth Brain label. They recorded their next release, 2005 Vampire Circus, with Corrosion of Conformity's Mike Dean acting as producer. It was released on Southern Lord Records. Five years later they followed with their third album, Something Wicked, which was also released by Southern Lord.

In 2007, Land o Smiles Records re-released Earthride's self-titled debut EP on 10" vinyl. In the same year, Dave Sherman, Eric Little, Greg Lynn Ball and Edmund Allan Brown recorded a new single on Salt of the Earth Records.

In November 2017, Earthride toured with Buzzov-en. At a stop in Dayton, Ohio, they were joined by Funeral Moon.
