French rocker Lucie Sue has unleashed her debut UK single Battlestation, a high-energy anthem officially released on 14 January 2025. Battlestation encapsulates the blend of dark, heavy riffs and evocative, infectious vocals that define her sound. The song is taken from her forthcoming album of the same name.
With an electrifying mix of ’90s grunge influences and modern Metal innovation, Lucie’s raw, uncompromising lyrics, coupled with her signature touch of humour, shine through in both the track and the ice hockey-themed video. It delivers a bold manifesto for female emancipation in a genre that thrives on rebellion.
Lucie Sue’s rise to prominence is a testament to her multifaceted talents. Her early influences include legends like L7, Metallica, and PJ Harvey. This unique blend of inspirations was further honed during the pandemic when her creative online covers showcased her versatility as a multi-instrumentalist. Her debut album, To Sing In French, released in 2023, laid the foundation for her current path.
Her undeniable talent caught the attention of industry heavyweight Richard Gamba, known for managing Metal giants Gojira. Under his guidance since September 2024, Lucie’s career has gained rapid momentum. She has already secured a coveted Mainstage 1 slot at the iconic Hellfest Open Air Festival on 21 June 2025 and has signed with European agents We Live.
With a 13-track album slated for release later this year, live performances across Europe, and her uniquely magnetic presence, Lucie Sue is poised to become a leading figure in French rock and Heavy Metal. It could be an exhilarating journey.
