About

Solitone is a Screamo / Post-Hardcore 4-piece with two released EP’s “Première Vague” (2016) and “Lame de Fond” (2018) both on vinyl via DIY labels. They are set to release their third EP “Le Champ des Possibles” on June 19, 2026. Vinyl version will be available through Voice Of The Unheard on September 4th, 2026.

Blending Emo, Hardcore-Punk and Post-Rock, Solitone plays a raw, yet emotional and intimate sound, built on a simple setup (a single guitar, bass, vocals and drums). All the band members have been influenced by French screamo references such as Daïtro and Amanda Woodward, hence their use of French vocals.

Remaining active gigging through the years despite bass player changes (JP left after the second EP, Ju filled in for a few shows then Nico joined the band) they are about to release their first project in 8 years, the first with the current line up.

Vocals : Yannick / Guitar : Hugo / Bass : Nico / Drums : Pierre

Based in Bordeaux, France · active since 2015.

Reviews / Live reports

“Solitone is a land of contrasts, equally capable of taking its time to build atmosphere as it is of kicking the anthill hard. The range they offer is broad and full of qualities (…) we witnessed a thoroughly convincing show.”
Aux Portes du Métal, 2024

“And in the space of a few moments, the audience is won over by the band’s proposition. The songs are as gripping as you could wish for. (…) we left the room blown away by the talent of the new French screamo scene, which offers a fresh sound where influences from other musical genres are added to parts that are reminiscent of the big names in the genre. We urge you to discover this band and support them on future dates near you.
Sounding Shivers, 2024

“(…)And yet, after a few runs, melodic moments can be discovered, the initially felt dissonance gradually dwindling. In any case, there is a lot to discover, you just have to tear open the volume controls properly! I find great this opposing and idiosyncratic bass, which reminds of old emo bands.
