StonerKras Fest 2026 Adds Acid Row and Tytus
Posted in Whathaveyou on April 6th, 2026 by JJ KoczanBy the time Prague’s Acid Row take the stage at StonerKras Fest 2026 in Trieste, Italy, this July, the band’s new album, Magic, will have seen both its digital and physical release (May 1 and 16, respectively) come and go, and I don’t know what the status currently is, but trad-metallers Tytus recorded their own third full-length last Fall and I haven’t seen any announcement for it, but it could well be out by summer too for all I know. These two joining Stoned Jesus broadens the bill stylistically and geographcally, and with more to come, the two-day fifth edition of StonerKras is beginning to take shape. What I’m curious about is how many bands will ultimately play each day and how it will all play out sound-wise.
To the best of my recollection, StonerKras has always been one-day, about five or six bands, so if there’s two days this year, then time’s getting on to get all the names out. Fair enough for the festival to expand, as it has looked like a family-friendly good time since it started. I guess there’s time still for everybody to be revealed, but so far it’s three different bands bringing three different sounds, all of them right on.

*** ACID ROW ***
stoner rock from Czech Republic
Acid Row is a Czech band active since around 2012, known for its explosive blend of stoner rock and punk, spiced with elements of doom, psychedelia, and ’90s grunge. Originally formed in Plzeň and relocated to Prague in 2019, the band has built a reputation for its ferocious live energy and an affinity for a darker, “devilish” aesthetic. Currently, the band performs as a trio consisting of Alex Fonar (vocals, bass), Dominik Klesa (guitar), and Radek Bacík (drums).
*** TYTUS ***
heavy metal from Trieste
Their sound harks back to the glorious years of NWOBHM and Speed Metal.
Firmly rooted somewhere between ’79 and ’84, their mission is to make those classic sounds fresh and new again, keeping the pure spirit of metal alive.
To date, the band has released two full-length albums, several singles, and a couple of EPs.
