Hawkdope is the third studio album by Italian stoner rock band Black Rainbows. It was released on March 13, 2015, through Heavy Psych Sounds. The album was produced by the band themselves and mixed by Dave Otero.
Hawkdope is a heavier and more psychedelic album than Black Rainbows' previous two albums, Stellar Prophecy and Cosmic Ritual Supertrip. The album features a more experimental sound, with elements of doom metal, sludge metal, and stoner rock. The songs on Hawkdope are longer and more complex than on the band's previous albums, and the lyrics are more introspective and philosophical.
The album was well-received by critics, with many praising the band's heavier and more experimental sound. Hawkdope was also a commercial success, reaching number 1 on the CMJ Radio 200 chart.
The album was supported by a tour of Europe and the United States.
