“The Sound of French Stoner Rock” explores the heavier, fuzz-drenched side of France’s underground rock scene. This playlist brings together a wide range of stoner, doom, and psych-influenced bands, from the gritty riffage of Domadora’s “Naïroya” to the sludgy atmospheres of Witchfinder’s “Ouija” and Conviction’s “Voices of the Dead.” It’s a mix built on thick tones, desert grooves, and sprawling guitar jams that tap into both vintage and modern sounds.
Featuring standout tracks like SLIFT’s cosmic crusher “Ummon,” Mars Red Sky’s slow-burner “Strong Reflection,” and the hypnotic intensity of Stone From the Sky’s “Le Squinfus,” the playlist keeps things dynamic while staying rooted in the genre’s core elements—down-tuned guitars, slow builds, and trippy textures. Whether it’s the progressive leanings of Decasia’s “Ilion” or the punk-charged energy of ELECTRIC JAGUAR BABY’s “Goin’ Thru The Blue,” it’s a solid snapshot of how French bands are shaping and stretching the boundaries of stoner rock.
