The Graviators

SE · 2006–present · active
Formed in southern Sweden in 2006, The Graviators were a stoner rock and doom metal band inspired by the heavy, riff-driven sounds of 1970s rock, with lyrical themes drawn from occultism and witchcraft that gave their music a dark, ritualistic character. Signed to Transubstans Records and later Napalm Records, the band released three albums — The Graviators (2009), Evil Deeds (2012), and Motherload (2014) — before disbanding in 2016 following the departure of a founding member. All three records remain fondly regarded in the European stoner and doom underground.

The Midnight Ghost Train

KS, US · 2008–present · active
The Midnight Ghost Train formed in Topeka, Kansas in 2007 as a power trio drawing from delta blues, gospel, and stoner rock to create a high-energy, riff-driven sound with southern grit. Their 2012 album Buffalo on Karate Body Records earned widespread acclaim and was named Best Stoner Rock Album of 2012 by Heavy Planet magazine. After signing to Napalm Records, the band released Cold Was the Ground (2015) and Cypress Ave (2017), cementing their reputation for raw, road-honed heavy blues. The group performed at Roadburn Festival in 2013 and have since retired from regular activity.
