NOVELISTS

Novelists is a female-fronted French metal band redefining the modern metalcore landscape with a blend of progressive intricacy, soaring melodies, and raw emotional weight.

With their latest album CODA (2024), the band has entered a new era—uniting their signature technical guitar work and atmospheric layers with the dynamic, powerful voice of Camille Contreras. Tracks like Maldición de la Bruja and Adam & Eve showcase this evolution, seamlessly weaving heaviness, ambience, and cinematic intensity into a sound both forward-thinking and deeply personal.

Known for their genre-bending approach, Novelists first made their mark with songs like Okapi and Prisoner, blending progressive metal, post-rock, and ambient textures. Their music is built around the virtuosity of guitarists Pierre Danel and Florestan Durand, whose intricate riffs and emotive solos have become a defining signature of the band.
The addition of Camille Contreras has injected fresh energy into the lineup, expanding their palette and further amplifying their international reach. With CODA, Novelists have proven their ability to evolve without compromise, solidifying their reputation as one of the most innovative voices in modern heavy music.

On stage, the band delivers a captivating live experience—technical precision meets raw emotion in performances that are both immersive and electrifying. Following extensive tours across Europe, Asia, and Australia, Novelists have joined LANDMVRKS on their 2025 U.S. run, reaching audiences across North America.
With a new chapter unfolding and momentum building worldwide, Novelists continue to push boundaries—shaping the future of metalcore with authenticity, ambition, and a sound that connects far beyond genre.
