Roadburn 2010 - headliners confirmed
Data dodania 2009-09-24Dodał WouterŹródło bravewords.comSeminal doom-legends GOATSNAKE will reunite for Roadburn Festival 2010, which will take place April 15th-17th, 2010 at the 013 and Midi Theatre in Tilburg, Holland.
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.
With two classic-albums under their belt ( I, re-released on Southern Lord and 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!”
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.
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.
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."
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 15th to Saturday, April 17th at both the 013 venue and Midi Theatre in Tilburg, Holland. There will be an additional Afterburner event on Sunday, April 18th, 2010.
