Made from your votes, the Stoner HiVe Top 20 Countdown of 2025 is already on Number 6… But you can still send in your lists to the The Obelisk poll. Which closes on December 31st. But before you do… Here’s one more album to check out! Yes! It’s another Festive Freebie. And they might just keep popping up here and there or everywhere. Who knows?! Just like the wild two that is KEY OF STONE! Straight out of beautiful Lille, France, they produce what they themselves call: ‘Progressive Doom and low stoner’. Or as our very own Adam Walsh says: “I dig everything about this. Heavy, fuzzy, bluesy doom grooves with cool vocals. What more can one ask for?” So, we ask you… What more can you ask for?
Jay Baner (La Capsule Stoner) wrote this for the Doom Charts Peroration of November 2025: “It’s always a real pleasure to discover a new band whose debut is not only promising but also utterly convincing. And that’s an added bonus when you realise that the band is from your very own country and that you’ll have the opportunity to see them live more easily. That’s how I welcomed Battlefield, the debut album from the French band KEY OF STONE, hailing from Lille. This album is a little gem of progressive stoner rock with influences oscillating between desert rock, fuzz rock, and doom. Each of his seven tracks demonstrates a real precision in writing and an impressive maturity for a first album. And to conclude a knack for melody that always hits the mark. A truly beautiful achievement.”
