Sons of Arrakis

Sons of Arrakis (SOA) is a Montreal-based band, formed in June 2019 and deeply inspired by Frank Herbert’s Dune saga. Their unique sound, a fusion of heavy riffs and sci-fi atmospheres, has been described as Melange Rock and Cinematic Sci-Fi Rock, captivating audiences and critics alike. Their debut album, Volume I (2022), quickly climbed to #1 on the Doom Chart (June 2022) and secured the #8 spot in the year-end recap. Their much-anticipated second album, Volume II (2024), reached #3 on the Doom Chart (July 2024) and earned a place in the Top 10 of the 2024 year-end rankings, further solidifying their impact in the heavy rock scene. SOA has toured extensively across Quebec, Canada and Mexico, and in January 2025, they embarked on their first US venture with The Great Scattering - Part II alongside Salem’s Bend, making their debut in California and Nevada. During this tour, they also took part in the Planet Desert Rock Weekend IV, expanding their presence in the American stoner rock circuit. In 2025, Sons of Arrakis continue their expansion into the United States and Europe with the Shai-Hulud Odyssey 2025, bringing their cinematic, sci-fi-infused heavy rock to new frontiers.
