Nieuwe Vibravoid is ook een aanrader, de eerste twee nummers zijn wat minder maar daarna gaat het los.
Psychedelische space-rock en dergelijke.

Gisteren naar Belgian Booms geweest in de W2. Creature with the atom brain speelde zwaarder dan ik ze eerder had zien spelen. Dat was een best goede show.

The Wait Is Over! Roadburn is very pleased to report that seminal doom-legends Goatsnake will reunite for Roadburn Festival 2010.

Featuring the original line up of Greg Anderson (Sunn 0))) / Guitars), Guy Pinhas (The Obsessed / Bass), Greg Rogers (The Obsessed / Drums) and Pete Stahl (Scream / Wool / earthlings? / Vocals) Goatsnake will headline the Thursday Roadburn date, April 15th, 2010.

Goatsnake - Roadburn 2010

With two classic-albums under their belt ( I, re-released on Southern Lord & Flower of Disease), Goatsnake have forged a considerable niche in the heavy rock underground over the last decade with their signature Sunn guitar sound. Pete Stahl’s clean, soulful vocals have always been at the heart of Goatsnake’s low and slow bulldozer rock as well, setting them apart from their peers. Goatsnake‘s influence can still be heard and felt throughout the current stoner and doom scene, even after such a long hiatus.

Greg Anderson comments: “Roadburn is hands down the only festival that consistently has a lineup that I personally would like to see. Being asked to perform with Goatsnake is an honor and a privilege. I’m really fucking stoked to play music with Greg, Guy and Pete again. We will do our absolute best to kick as much ass as possible!”

We are truly looking forward to the melodic, low-end assault that Goasnake will bring to the festival, as we consider ourselves very lucky with this highly anticipated reunion.

Reunited doom metal giants YOB will be making their European live debut with two different shows at next year’s Roadburn Festival.

Yob - Roadburn 2010 Debut Appearance

Even during their hiatus, YOB have maintained their position in the vanguard of contemporary doom because of the quality and originality of their mind bending doom-metal. Now they have returned and are prepared to reach even greater heights (and doom depths).
The band’s latest album, “The Great Cessation” is definitely YOB’s finest hour. Led by Mike Scheidt’s crushing doom riffage and relentless stomp, YOB have easily reclaimed their rightful cosmic doom throne while generating new fans and momentum.

Roadburn will celebrate YOB’s return to the fold by offering the band the opportunity to play different shows at both the 013 venue, and the Midi Theatre during the festival.

Mike Scheidt comments: “YOB is quite thrilled to announce our first European trip to play the most excellent Roadburn festival in 2010. We have wanted to come over to Europe to play for many years and to have our first show be at Roadburn is beyond incredible for us. We are looking forward to sharing in the atmosphere of the fest with all of the excellent bands and fans that will be in attendance. April will not get here soon enough! DOOM!!!”

If time is a toxin, then Sons of Otis must be positively venomous. After a decade since their last European tour, the Canadian heavyweights will return in a very big way, playing two different sets at Roadburn Festival 2010.
Sons of Otis - Roadburn 2010

Sons of Otis - Roadburn 2010

Formed in Toronto as Otis in 1992, Sons of Otis has followed Detroit-born guitarist Ken Baluke’s original vision to play thick sludge riffs underpinned by a pounding rhythm section and heavily reverbed vocals. The result is slow, spacey, hypnotic blues rock, seemingly too heavy to be real.

1999’s Templeball easily ranks among the best albums that Sons of Otis ever put out, and definitely qualifies as one of the very best stonerrock albums of all time, too. The band will play this mile (high) stone of a record in its entirety at Roadburn 2010, in addition to a regular show.

Ken Baluke comments: “We`ve always wanted play Roadburn, but our hands were tied….. But now, the shackles are off and we`re on the way Holland. Peace!”

THORR'S HAMMER REUNION CONFIRMED FOR TOM WARRIOR'S ONLY DEATH IS REAL AT NEXT YEARS ROADBURN FESTIVAL

The recently reunited Thorr's Hammer will be playing Tom Warrior's Only Death Is Real at Roadburn 2010, set to be held on Friday, April 16th.

Having witnessed some downright incredible events in music this year, the recent Thorr's Hammer reunion gigs at Birmingham's own Supersonic Festival and London were among the absolute highlights. For the first time in 15 years, Thorr's Hammer treated audiences to live renditions of their monolithic, gut-wrenching, black-doom, originally created in the mammoth stoned winter of 1994-1995.

Personally invited by Tom Gabriel Warrior, Thorr's Hammer, comprised of Stephen O'Malley (Sunn 0))), Guitar), Greg Anderson (Sunn 0))), Guitar), Jamie Sykes (Drums), long time cohort Guy Pinhas (The Obsessed / Goatsnake, Bass) and original vocalist Runhild Gammelsæter, will be playing their first ever show on the European mainland at Tom's Roadburn curated event, Only Death is Real.

Tom Gabriel Warrior comments: "I am excited and very happy as a fan and I feel proud and honored as a curator that Thorr's Hammer have accepted my invitation and have agreed to play next year's Roadburn festival. I greatly respect Stephen O'Malley both as a peer and a friend, and I have long regarded Thorr's Hammer as pioneers in their field. Having them at Roadburn is a true privilege."

Runhild Gammelsæter comments: "I speak on behalf of all members of Thorr's Hammer when I tell of the speachlessness, the thrill going down my back, upon the news that we have been invited by Tom Gabriel Warrior to play the Roadburn festival. Not in my wildest dreams as a teenage girl listening to Celtic Frost and playing doom in Seattle did I imagine that Thorr's Hammer would be appreciated 15 years later. We are awed of the recognition of our music and thrilled to have this opportunity. It is such a joy for us to play together again, and we look forward to share that joy with the audience. We are very thankful to our fans, old and new, and we are very excited to perform at Roadburn."

Stephen O'Malley comments: "With respect and honor Thorr's Hammer accepts Tom Gabriel Warrior's invitation to perform at his Only Death Is Real night at Roadburn 2010. TGW's guitar playing, Hellhammer, and early Celtic Frost were essential to the collaborative musical directions Greg Anderson and I were forging in the early days of making music together, and we remain faithful servants to this day. Even more essentially, TH was certainly a HH acolyte in the beginning, our direction nearly one of an attempt toward simulation of that acts primal aggressive modes. We are both proud and humbled to be the guest of one of our metal mentors, and to be given the opportunity to play the original 1994 demo "Dommedagsnatt" material in it's entirety on the European continent for the very first time."

Totally living up to the expectations surrounding this highly anticipated reunion, it's needless to say that we at Roadburn are very pleased with the addition of Thorr's Hammer, alongside headliner Triptykon to the line-up of Only Death Is Real.

Roadburn 2010, including Tom Gabriel Warrior's Only Death Is Real, the Goatsnake reunion and Candlemass' 25th anniversary show, will run for three days from Thursday, April 15 to Saturday, April 17 at both the 013 venue and Midi Theatre in Tilburg, Holland. There will be an additional Afterburner event on Sunday, April 18, 2010.
