Wolves in the Throne Room have been busy this summer. They’ve been on an extensive tour with Sunn O))) and Earth, they are scheduled to play a few shows with Ludicra, and they have added even more shows that will extend their tour into Fall. Not only that, but they are playing with some of the best live metal bands along the way! I am so excited for the San Francisco show, not only because Wolves in the Throne Room put on a smashing show, but also because they will be playing with one of my fave doom metal bands – Graves at Sea. In other cities they play with Thrones, Asunder, Goatwhore and more! They will even venture into Canada for a few shows, so if you are a metal fan on the west coast, there will be no excuse for missing one of these epic shows… ([More →])

I’m not sure if this has sold out completely or not… But this is another in the series of “I posted this so long ago, i feel it deserves a refresher post as the date soon cometh!” I want to be at this festival SOooo badly. Any transporters in the house tonight??

Roadburn Festival in Tilburg Holland has added yet another night of music to their already storming lineup! The weekend long festival, previously scheduled for April 20-21, is sold out. This third night, however, will be sold separately!
From the :: Roadburn Festival website ::

As if the forthcoming Roadburn Festival isn’t enough sonic overload, Sunn 0))), Bohren und der Club of Gore & Fear Falls Burning will play the Roadburn Festival Afterburner, scheduled for Sunday, April 22nd. Tickets will be sold seperately. Weekend tickets for the sold-out Roadburn Festival do not include entrance for this show.

Pre-sale tickets go on sale starting March 24th and there are only 325 total, so this will definitely sell out. don’t sleep!

I checked :: ideologic.org :: to see what else i could find out, and they have the lineup of who will be playing as Sunn O))) for this night :
Attila Csihar, Greg Anderson and Stephen O’Malley, with TOS Niewenhuizen

YES – even Attila will be with them!
I can’t believe the lineup for the other 2 days, it’s like sxsw for dark avant garde metal! Neurosis, OM, Red Sparrowes, Clutch, Growing, Circle, Thrones, Melvins, Amenra, and so many more!!
That’s just one more reason i should be living in Holland.
