Sons of Arrakis return with Volume III, their third full-length album.
Formed in Montreal in June 2019, Sons of Arrakis take their name and creative inspiration from Frank Herbert's Dune novels. The band describes its sound as melange rock and cinematographic sci-fi rock, drawing from heavy rock, desert rock, and stoner rock.
Their debut album, Volume I, was released in July 2022 and reached #1 on the Doom Charts in July of that year, later placing at #8 in the year-end rankings. Its follow-up, Volume II, arrived in June 2024, reaching #3 on the Doom Charts in July and securing another Top 10 year-end placement.
The band has since expanded its touring activity across North America and Europe. Highlights include their first US tour and an appearance at Planet Desert Rock Weekend IV in 2025, followed by a UK debut at Stoom Fest and European festival appearances at Into The Void and Up In Smoke. In 2026, the band returned to Europe for performances at Krach am Bach, Rock im Wald, Free & Easy, and Sauzipf Rocks, alongside a Western Canadian tour with Voivod and an appearance at Infest Edmonton.
