Intense, Textural, Articulate
“With larger than life riffs and explosive rhythm sections, you don’t need to listen for long to realize that each member of Steroid Puppets possesses outstanding technical ability. For headbanging, or to sit down and listen to every tiny detail, this project works both ways!” - Secret Eclectic Magazine
"Their debut album “Earthguest” is 42 minutes of fresh compositions that rival the best in the aforementioned sub-genres in all aspects: playing, production and songwriting." - The Prog Space
WHO WE ARE

The band was created from Ben's vision as he wanted to make music which combines the Intense energy and preciseness of metal, with the dynamics, intricate melodies and rich harmonic landscapes of jazz/fusion music with modern multilayered production that gives the listener a fresh audible experience.
