French stoner/doom rockers Sheraff are ready to unveil their debut EP, Concrete by the Ocean. It features three tracks where fuzz-heavy stoner and doom metal converge, offering a tormented snapshot of life in the band’s stormy landscape. The EP will be released on October 18th, so be on the lookout.
In an era riddled with uncertainties and anxieties, this French quartet answers with noise and fury. Sheraff was born in Brest, France’s windswept, rain-soaked streets—an urban landscape of concrete and steel where melancholy lingers like a fog. But beneath this brooding grayness lies a vibrant underground where alternative scenes thrive.
Sheraff emerges from this gritty backdrop, channeling the elemental storms and inner tempests, embracing the raw power of stoner, doom, and heavy psych rock as devoted disciples of its riff-heavy gospel.
Their debut EP, Concrete by the Ocean, is the fruit of this tumultuous ambition. Lyrically, it’s a journey through the highs and lows of human struggle.
In tracks like “Soft Madness,” they confront the dual-edged sword of addiction, capturing its dark allure and inevitable spiral.
“Struggle to Fade” is an anthem to the restless nights of deliberate insomnia, while the title track, “Concrete by the Ocean,” immerses listeners in a dystopian, desolate seascape—a place where wandering souls are met with rejection and isolation.
Recorded at TAF Panoramix Studio and mixed at Slab Sound Studio, this EP distills three years of relentless creative drive and tireless rehearsals.
It stands as a testament to Sheraff’s determination to carve their place in the ever-evolving, fiercely competitive stoner/doom scene—where the only certainty is the cathartic power of their sound.
As Concrete by the Ocean prepares to make its mark, Sheraff stands poised to unleash its potent blend of fuzz-laden riffs and raw emotion onto the world.
This debut EP is a muscular, visceral experience that echoes the turbulence of life between city and sea, despair and defiance. With its official release on October 18th, Sheraff invites listeners to step into their storm, where sound becomes both an escape and a confrontation. Fans and worshippers of the almighty riff will surely enjoy it.
