Heavy Psych Sounds Fest Italy reveals final lineup!

European stoner, doom and psych rock festival series Heavy Psych Sounds Fest Italy reveals the final lineup for their double edition, taking place on May 2-3 at Estragon Club in Bologna and El Barrio in Torino. Tickets are on sale now!

Get ready for another seismic weekend of riffs and fuzz as Heavy Psych Sounds Fest once again brings the heat to Bologna and Torino this May 2nd and 3rd, with another colossal lineup that will make both cities tremble! At the top of the bill, two forces of nature from the opposite ends of the heavy rock spectrum are ready to melt all faces in equal ways: time to soak in the sun-drenched, hypnotic jams of Greece’s hard psych-prog pillars Naxatras, and get instantly crushed by the smoked-out sludgy spells of Polish stoner doom heroes Belzebong. 

With Heavy Psych Sounds Records stalwarts such as Nightstalker, Weedpecker, Lords of Altamont, Desert Storm or -(16-), this 2026 edition promises to be stacked with riffs for ages and a must-do experience for all fans of stoner rock, psychedelia, slugde and doom metal around. Grab your weekend tickets while you can!
