NEWS - French Doom/Grunge Metal power-trio Clegane unveiled new single "Sun Decay" // New album 'Ocean of Black Thoughts' out on October 2
Formed in 2015, Clegane have spent the past decade carving out a singular path between the disillusioned weight of '90s grunge and the crushing gravity of modern doom. Instinctive, minimalist and deeply introspective, the French trio have built their identity around saturated, granular riffs, deep drums and raw, weathered vocals — turning the darker corners of human existence into music that feels both brutally physical and intensely personal.
That trajectory began with their self-titled debut EP in 2017, followed by 'Funeral at Sea' and a split with Father Merrin in 2018, 'White of the Eye' in 2022 and a split with Fatima in 2023. Across each release, Clegane have progressively expanded their sound without abandoning its primitive core, pushing beyond doom and grunge while preserving the tension and emotional weight that have defined them from the beginning.
That evolution has unfolded just as fiercely on stage. From underground squats in Switzerland to the Purple Stage at Hellfest in 2025, Clegane have developed a reputation for visceral, immersive performances that drag audiences under before pulling them back into the darkness.
Now, 'Ocean of Black Thoughts' marks the band's most ambitious transformation yet.
