The Lunar Effect are a quartet with a flair for hair and a penchant for fuzzy, snarling riffs that have been shaking the astral plane since their formation in 2016. Starting as a grunge outfit with a retro hard-rock impulse, they began to expand their sonic scope and crash-landed onto the stoner scene with their debut album ‘Calm Before the Calm’ in 2019. With every song propelled into orbit by fuzz laden riffs, nasty enough to blow the moon-dust off your amp, there is no denying that the Londoners mean business.
Psychedelic visions and existential ideas are weaved throughout their brooding vintage sound, while bending stoner rock into their own unique mould.
This album pushes the listener into new and uncharted waters.

The Lunar Effect draw from their influences and paint their own psychedelic debut masterpiece.
- MAXIMUM VOLUME MUSIC
A masterpiece that makes me believe in the future of rock'n'roll once again.
- THE QUEENS BASTARD’S
A groovy and tight rhythmic section slowly develops the grooves and lays the foundation for the warm fuzzy guitar riffs and gritty raw solos to float around until the mighty and hypnotic vocals take over and tie everything together into a sonic bundle of Kyuss, Radio Moscow and Graveyard.
