Heavy Psych Sounds Fest London announces first names for 2026

Heavy Psych Sounds Fest London have announced the first wave of bands for their 2026 edition!

The European stoner, doom and psychedelic rock festival will return to London this November, taking over Signature Brew Blackhorse Road on November 13th and 14th for a weekend of fuzz-drenched riffs and cosmic explorations. Organised by Rome-based label Heavy Psych Sounds, the event continues its tradition of bringing together some of the most revered names from across the underground heavy scene.

Leading the first wave of announcements are Italian stoner rock torchbearers BLACK RAINBOWS, whose high-octane blend of garage psych and riff-driven intensity has cemented their cult status, alongside Greek doom outfit ACID MAMMOTH, known for their crushing, ritualistic sound steeped in Sabbathian worship. Also joining the line-up are Scotland’s sprawling psych explorers THE COSMIC DEAD, UK desert rockers PSYCHLONA, Sweden’s sludge-infused heavy hitters FIREBREATHER, and Italian psychedelic trio MR. BISON.

With more acts still to be announced, the festival once again promises a carefully curated showcase of the global stoner, doom and heavy psych community.
