UNCLE ACID AND THE DEADBEATS (UK)
Het geesteskind van Kevin Starrs, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats maakt sinds 2009 uitzonderlijke muziek. Altijd te gedurfd en eigenzinnig om in een hokje te passen, kwamen ze voort uit een obscure hoek van de doolhofachtige Britse undergroundscene, met een nieuwe en overweldigend psychedelische benadering van de ruwe fundamenten van hardrock en donkere blues.
Met een meesterlijke knipoog naar de magische sferen van het turbulente verleden van heavy muziek, en tegelijk volledig uniek in klank, blijft Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats een van de meest indrukwekkende live-acts van dit moment.
1000MODS
Rooted in heavy rock and psychedelic traditions, 1000mods seamlessly blend classic 70s rock influences with a gritty modern edge, crafting anthems that resonate deeply with fans around the world. Renowned for their DIY ethos and electrifying stage presence, 1000mods has solidified their reputation as one of the hardest-working bands in the genre where they continue to push boundaries and captivate fans worldwide.
30,000 MONKIES
AHAB
German doom and sludge metal outfit Ahab are so infatuated with oceans, they had a sticker placed on The Call of the Wretched Sea, their 2006 debut long-player that described their music to inquisitive punters as “Nautik Funeral Doom.” Each recording since has carried a nautical theme in its title. Get soaked into Ahab’s heavy tidal wave!
APEX TEN
BORIS
Fortement influencé par la scène sludge metal de Seattle, Boris se forme à Tokyo en 1992, empruntant son nom à la chanson éponyme de Melvins, avant de faire ses débuts en tant que groupe de drone metal avec l’album Absolutego en 1996. Volontairement éclectique, Boris a construit une discographie impressionnante comptant près de trente albums studio et des dizaines d’EPs.
En 2005, Boris sort l’album Pink, qui fusionne tous les styles explorés auparavant par le groupe, offrant une expérience d’écoute riche, variée et largement saluée par la critique.
Venez voir, entendre et rencontrer Boris à Liège cet automne !
Celestial Sanctuary
DAILY THOMPSON
Travelling from their home base Dortmund, the power rock trio Daily Thompson have spent a lot of time on the road. Inspired by bands like Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Alice In Chains, and The Smashing Pumpkins, they are known for their massive, fuzzy, distorted guitars, and melodic hooks. They sure know how to rock a psych groove, but their blend of two distinct lead vocals is where the hidden force lies.
DEATHCHANT
DEATHCHANT are a Los Angeles based four piece band formed in 2018 blending raucous rock and roll and New Wave of British Heavy Metal, with a heavy nod to the golden era of guitar harmonies and Marshall full stacks. Their music shifts from interwoven melodic runs to noise drenched sonic raids with an energy that notoriously sticks with fans long after shows end.
