Track 8 on Stone Oracle, Hostal Handshake’s long-awaited sophomore album, is “The Lizard Sleeps in Oil”—a fast, groovy stoner rock journey laced with whammy-drenched guitar and hallucinatory sludge. The track conjures a dreamlike descent into molten riffs and cryptic imagery, exploring themes of decay, transformation, and mythic stillness.

Nearly two decades after Hellish (2007), this song marks a bold evolution for Hostal Handshake—leaning into hypnotic grooves, lyrical abstraction, and sonic experimentation. Expect layered guitars, trance-inducing rhythms, and vocals that feel more like a ritual invocation than a performance.

“The Lizard Sleeps in Oil” isn’t just a track—it’s a vision. One of the most enigmatic entries on Stone Oracle, slated to drop in 2026.

lyrics:
---------
In this scorched and desert land  
A lizard sleeps beneath the sand  
Not quite dead, not truly alive  
Where human dreams no longer thrive  

Their sleeping god? Creep through the sludge  
Their civilization lost to grudge  
This tipping point sparked up this joint  
And it’s never coming back to the point  

They wait to rise with no more lies  
This could be the end of all days  
They want to see, what to believe  
Weep for rusted gods in the haze

Hostal Handshake is a stoner doom / hard desert rock band from Athens, Greece, active since 2001. Following early promos and their debut album Hellish (2007, Secret Port Records), they return with Stone Oracle—their long-awaited sophomore full-length, set for release in January 2026. After 18 years, the riffs are heavier, the fuzz deeper, and the desert winds louder.
