In a short statement on social media on 2nd March 2023 Electric Valley Records announced that local band Hemplifier are now part of its roster

"We are proud to announce that heavy riffers Hemplifier have just signed with EVR for their debut album."

"HEMPLIFIER is a Stoner/Doom band consisting of Emanuel Portelli (Thy Legion, Victims of Creation, Pilgrimage, Animamortua), Bażaż (Lady Lizard, R.A.S.) & Dino Mifsud Lepre (Victims of Creation, Pilgrimage) formed in 2019.

All three members are experienced and have been playing in numerous other bands in the past, and present apart from Hemplifier.

“Some of us have been in the scene from the ‘90s. The trio's target was to jam, get high, compose the heaviest riffs possible, have a good time & send seismic waves to the planet while aboard their spacecraft! We worship Amps & Vintage Gear! Our lyrical themes are that of sci-fi, aliens, the supernatural, occult, voodoo, weed, giants & a touch of local folklore & myth."

Stay Doomed”, explained the band.
