I'm trying to keep tabs on interesting french bands, as I'm sure there's a wealth of good music there that I've long neglected. At the moment I'm finding a lot of heavier stuff that I like, but I'm open to anything as long as it's interesting. So far while browsing the internet for recommendations I've discovered the following. If you know any bands that should be added to the list, please comment and tell me. French language is preferable.
Gojira - Progressive metal in the vein of Mastodon, Meshuggah etc. English language.
Year Of No Light - Atmospheric hardcore in the vein of Neurosis, Envy, Cult Of Luna. From Bordeaux, French language.
Amanda Woodward - French language screamo
Aussitôt Mort - Very epic and intense french language hardcore/screamo.
Comity - Very chaotic, doomy metalcore
Blut Aus Nord - Bleak avant-garde black metal
Monarch! - Female-fronted doom
Belle Epoque - French language screamo
Overmars - Dark, epic, doomy stuff.
Alcest - Started out making black metal - now, while keeping the black metal roots, playing gorgeous, almost shoegazer-esque stuff that will appeal to fans of jesu and co.
Deathspell Omega - Extremely fucked up black metal.
Daïtro - Great screamo.
