Hard Rock des Habitants
134 Records, 719 Tracks, 1,000's of photos! Dive deep into the raw, unfiltered sounds of Montreal’s underground hard rock and psychedelic scene from the 60s and 70s. A time when fuzzed-out guitars, heavy blues riffs, and mind-expanding jams thundered through Quebec’s clubs and college halls. This collection brings together essential rock records and rare tracks, capturing the rebellious energy of the era.
Featuring rare and legendary acts like Ellison, The Haunted, Medium, Blind Ravage, and more, this is a tribute to the untamed spirit of La Belle Province’s rock revolution.
🔥 Turn it up and let Les Habitants du Hard Rock shake the Great White North! 🔥
