Froglord’s sound blends stoner metal, sludge metal, and doom metal with psychedelic and narrative elements. Lyrically, much of their work revolves around conceptual storytelling and amphibian mythology, often with environmentalist or fantastical motifs.
Emerging from Bristol’s vibrant heavy scene, Froglord have carved out a distinct identity through their cinematic “Froglore” universe - a sprawling storyline that runs across their albums, artwork, and live shows.
