Dunes write heavy music with a sense of direction. Their songs don’t drift or meander - they move with purpose, pulling you forward through rhythm, tension, and release. There’s a confidence to how they build and resolve ideas, favouring instinct and impact over overthinking.
This is music that trusts momentum and lets energy do the work.

Released in 2025, Dunes’ latest album captures the band in a focused, forward-moving phase, sharpening their songwriting while translating strongly to the live setting.
Dunes balance drive and weight with a strong sense of momentum, combining punchy riffs, rolling rhythms, and dynamic shifts that keep the music moving forward.
Their sound feels physical and direct, built around energy and groove rather than slow burn alone. There’s an immediacy to their songwriting - tight, propulsive, and charged - making their tracks hit hard while still leaving space for atmosphere and texture.
