Lahti, FI · 2010–present · active
Stone Ship forge doom metal from Lahti, building ponderous, vessel-like compositions that carry the weight of stone across heavy waters. Active since 2010, they bring maritime doom to the Paijat-Hame scene.
Galway, IE · 2017–present · active
Galway's Stonecarver shape doom and drone metal with the patience and precision of a sculptor since 2017. Their west-of-Ireland origins lend an Atlantic bleakness to their monolithic, slowly-evolving compositions.
Visby, SE · 2017–present · active
Visby's Stonechurch play heavy metal from the medieval Hanseatic walled city on Gotland since 2017. Their petrified-sacred-architecture name and origins among the island's famous medieval church ruins create a natural resonance between name, place, and sound.
Göttingen, DE · 2016–present · active
Stoned God fuse progressive, death, and groove metal from Gottingen, creating a multi-genre sound that moves between cerebral complexity and riff-driven heaviness. Active since 2016, they bring divine, altered-state intensity to the Lower Saxon university city.
Kyiv, UA · 2012–present · active
Kyiv's Stoned Jesus have become one of Ukraine's most internationally recognized stoner and doom metal acts since 2012. Over a decade from the Dnieper capital, their provocatively irreverent name has produced a catalog of riff-heavy compositions that have earned them a significant global following.
Varese, IT · 2011–present · active
Varese's Stoned Monkey blend sludge and stoner metal from the Lombard lakes since 2011. Their primate-themed intoxication name captures the fuzzy, primal quality of their heavy approach.
Genoa, IT · 2026–present · active
Genoa's Stoned Vikings Pillaging Valhalla deliver sludge and stoner metal with an epically absurd name since 2026. Their Ligurian origins and maximalist title signal a sound that values excess in every dimension.
Reggio Emilia, IT · 2014–present · active
Reggio Emilia's Stonedrift pair groove and sludge metal from the Emilian plains since 2014. Their geological-movement name suits a sound that shifts and flows with heavy, sedimentary inevitability.
SE · 2005–present · active
Stoneflow pair thrash and groove metal from an undisclosed Swedish location since 2005. Over two decades, their lithic-current name has channeled the paradox of solid matter in motion into compositions of rhythmically driven aggression.
