Swedish underground rock label Majestic Mountain Records have built a strong reputation as curators of some of the finest stoner rock, doom, psychedelic, and hard rock emerging from Northern Europe. Their roster reads like a who’s who of heavy music, featuring artists such as Kal-El, Slomatics, Saint Karloff, Grand Cadaver, and The Midnight Ghost Train to name a few and with their distinctive vinyl editions regularly landing on collectors’ most-wanted lists.
Beyond releases, Majestic Mountain Records have also organized heavy underground concerts across Sweden, with their Label Fests becoming celebrations of music, community, and friendship. Now, for the first time, they are bringing this concept to Finland, as four label-affiliated bands take over Lepakkomies in Helsinki.
Line-up
Mushroom Caravan Overdrive (SWE)
One of the pillars of the Swedish stoner/doom scene, Mushroom Caravan Overdrive deliver massive, psychedelic riffs in the tradition of Sleep and Ufomammut. Expect a bulldozer-like wall of sound as the band play their first-ever show in Helsinki. Don’t miss the party.
I Am Low (SWE)
Hard-driving, grunge-infused stoner rock packed with hooks and attitude. This charming power trio from Umeå bring desert vibes to a cold winter night, raising the eternal question: what is in the water up there?
Craneium (FIN)
Heavy, atmospheric, and psychedelic, Craneium carry forward the spirit of Pink Floyd, Baroness, and Elephant Tree, while forging a sound entirely their own. After 170 sweaty shows across Europe, the Turku-based four-piece are currently working on their fifth album.
Kaiser (FIN)
Helsinki’s legendary desert rock trio return fresh from US shows and ready to rock Lepakkomies once again. Their album 2nd Sound landed in the Top 3 of the Doom Charts Top 100 Albums of 2025, and for good reason.
