Roskilde 2012

parece que the cure es el jueves y bjork el domingo (y Springsteen el sabado). En cualquier caso, ya sabes que hasta junio no dan los horarios y todo saldra de lo que filtren los grupos...

Ya sabes que yo, si voy, ire de viernes a domingo, ya que visitaria tu ciudad miercoles y jueves.

Se ha autoconfirmado Hank Williams III.

Mew to play Roskilde 2012


The exclusive concert with the Nordic favourites is announced along with Mutiny On The Bounty and Ter Haar.We
proudly present a much welcome Roskilde reunion. An audience favourite
plays an exclusive show – one of very few in 2012 – for its Scandinavian
fans.


MEW (DK) has
developed a unique sound where Jonas Bjerre's choirboy vocals are the
human anchor point in a tornado of sophisticated, dreamy, often
hard-hitting rock. Amidst these rugged sounds the band has even written
some catchy-as-ever choruses that make pop fans cherish this band. Mew
is in the studio these days, so maybe we will even be treated with tunes
from an upcoming album.


A statement from Mew's HQ says:


"Having sailed the seven seas, Silas, Jonas and Bo
are back in the circle, busy building new floors and sections of the
castle that Mew inhabits. Airy halls of light and wind, amber-coloured
wood radiating from the bottom up, these rooms are future rooms for us
all. This is celebrated with few concerts over the summer and autumn."


Two equally challenging, European bands added to the lineup
Along with the Danish favourites we add two European bands who like Mew have a penchant for complexity and edge.


MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY (LUX) plays
progressive, hard-hitting and technical rock. This music out of
Luxembourg is not just well-executed and with more ideas in one song
than many bands use on an entire album. It is also brutally beautiful,
melodic guitar rock that will appeal to everyone who digs music with
both balls and brain.


TER HAAR (DE) started out as an
instrumental band, which you feel in the musicality and attention to
detail in all of the trio’s songs – even after guitarist Philipp Koller
has started singing. The ambition is edgy, complex post-rock that makes
you want to dance rather than count time signatures. Don't miss this
band if you've enjoyed Battles' angular rhythm.

Mew, murrico no?

Sips. Hubiera preferido Kent de cosas escandinavas no tan trilladas por estos lares, pero siempre son agradables.

De que van los meo estos????

Behemoth confirmados. Esto le molara a maroki.

¿Cuál es la página oficial de Kent para ver su gira? He visto que en agosto tocan en Suecia y en septiembre casi seguro que haremos un viajecito por ahí arriba.

No suenan mal (pese a que el video este censurado en alemania) , aunque el timbre de voz del cantante me pone algo de los nervios, les dare unas escuchas mas.


Lo mio es una mezcla entre leonard cohen, mia, los stones, portishead, la casa azul y king kang y el barbacoas.

Joder que desilusión, si esa misma gira la hicieran en septiembre les veríamos fácilmente 3 ó 4 veces.

A ver si hacen algún bolo más adelante. Por ejemplo en Bergen que no tienen fecha.

Jejejeje si vamos, que lo tuyo es un género musical en sí mismo, porque no se me ocurre nada más que todos esos tengan en común .

De Mew empieza por el "And the Glass Handed Kites" y si te gusta pues ya sigues .

Mac Miller coming to Roskilde Festival


The Pittsburgh rapper joins the programme along with A$AP Rocky and Dominique Young Unique.Three hot, young up-and-coming rappers from the United States share the spotlight in today's announcement.


MAC MILLER has
conquered the young hip hop scene just like his bro Wiz Khalifa, who is
also playing Roskilde this summer. With his debut album Blue Slide Park
Mac Miller has achieved such high sales numbers that his name is now
molded in solid gold. Already before the album was released, his live
shows have experienced massive interest, also in the Nordic countries.
Mac Miller’s light and often bubbly hip hop is packed with summer vibes
as well as thoughts and dreams of girls and fame.



A$AP ROCKY is
flamboyant hip hop from a self-assured innovator of the New York school.
This golden boy’s universe deals with the sweet life of a rap star and
womanizer; luckily, musical substance is to be found alongside with the
self-proclaimed "pretty motherfucker”'s tales. LiveLoveA$AP
consolidated A$AP Rocky's potential within the general music press, his
mixtape offers several reasons to why you should look forward to the
rapper's Roskilde debut as well.



DOMINIQUE YOUNG UNIQUE
has placed her name in the corner where young urban queens such as
Nicki Minaj, Santigold and M.I.A reign. Several mixtapes have caught
people’s ears. In addition, Dominique Young Unique has performed with
acts such as Big Boi, Gucci Mane and N.E.R.D. Also, Kanye West has taken
notice of the girl with the speedy tongue, who also prepares to create
her own fashion collection. A new hot style icon is ready to entertain
the Nordic crowd.

A$AP ROCKY, una razon más para plantearme lo del PS.

vente hippi.

Southern metal clash at Roskilde Festival


Baroness, Crowbar, Red Fang and Weedeater as well as Hank3 are added to the lineup.Today's
music package is a big roar from the southern swamps. We proudly
present some of the best metal produced in the US Southern states. A
true riff marathon awaits.


BARONESS have with Red Album and Blue Record
made a name for themselves as one of the most progressive
front-runners of Southern metal, alongside like-minded Roskilde acts
such as Mastodon and Kylesa. The band has announced new material on the
way.


CROWBAR incarnates, like few other
bands, the murky sludge metal genre with its tuned-down riffs, lazy
grooves and roaring vocals. The hefty chaps have retained their metal
style since the early 90s, unaffected by any fads.


RED FANG delivers a
testosterone-driven update of Black Sabbath, Melvins and Kyuss. A party
for everyone convinced that The Lord not only has a long beard but also
a checkered shirt, a spiked belt and a can of beer in his hand.


WEEDEATER are without a doubt good-natured Southern folks – the band's first album was called ... And Justice For Y'all with a howdy to Metallica's classic. The music, however, is a deadly mixture of fast riffs, whipped drums and growling vocals.


Slightly out of category – still badass
HANK3 doesn't
fully fit this category. Yet, we couldn't help but let this
country/punk/metal pioneer join the tough company of the other Southern
boys. The job description is clear for this tattooed cowboy: Nashville's
cosy country is going down. The spirit of grandfather Hank Williams,
Johnny Cash and other icons of the rural music is best translated with
outlaw punk'n'country. Hank3's concerts often culminate with a doom
section where the country band drops the leather shirts and plays metal.

Mañana 4 confirmaciones:

4 sound samples from 4 artists in one chaotic bit.

Countries: Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Denmark

Approximate Facebook likes: 6000, 63000, 17000, 5000

Everything in random order.

Nordic music added to Roskilde 2012 lineup


Dead Skeletons, Sivert Høyem, Niki & The Dove and Of The Wand And The Moon add Nordic darkness and magic to the lineup.Nordic
artists are a central part of Roskilde Festival. Today we present a
motley bunch of some of today's most powerful names from the far north.


DEAD SKELETONS (ISL) is like
straying into a maelstrom of roaring, echoing guitars, staring skeleton
heads, Buddhist trance and cosmic rock'n'roll. "He who fears death
cannot enjoy life," is the basic philosophy of psychedelic,
death-embracing trance rock band.


SIVERT HØYEM (N) was originally the
lead singer in Norwegian band Madrugada, and he continues on his own
creating grandiose Scandinavian rock full of inner drama. On the fourth
album, Long Slow Distance, he has found inspiration in
surprising places (Høyem mentions German kraut rock and French pop as
some of them), and the synthesizer often knocks on the door in Høyem’s
stormy songs in minor.


NIKI & THE DOVE (S) have
already made ​​a big impression outside of Scandinavia with their
opulent synth pop. Malin Dahlström’s vocals with the thick Swedish
accent are cold and chic, and Gustaf Karlöf’s swarming arrangements are
both compact, sophisticated and the perfect backdrop for the duo's
melodic songs.


OF THE WAND AND THE MOON (DK) is one of the most prominent bands of the darkened, cultural-pessimistic dark folk genre. The Lone Descent
from 2011 frames the mood of an occult mass deep inside a North
European forest lit up by torches. But according to the musical
mastermind, inspiration is also found in 60s icons such as Lee
Hazlewood and Serge Gainsbourg when writing this gloomy doom music.

Bueno, he visto que el día 16 sacan el póster y anuncian un monto de bandas. Ese día decidiré si ir o no.

Pero la verdad es que estoy más decidido que nunca.

Parece que se ha autoconfirmado Alisson Krauss, aunque ya no aparece la fecha en su web.

El 16 quedara casi todo visto para sentencia, pero luego hasta mayo suelen caer 2-3 grupos semigordos.

WTF!!!!!!

ROSKILDE FESTIVAL INTRODUCES TAX ON CIGARETTE BUTTS
Three million cigarette butts in one single festival have an environmental impact. Now Roskilde Festival focuses on the mess - and wants the audience to clean up.
Roskilde Festival is about to go up in smoke, and it is not good for the environment nor for Roskilde Festival's economy. Therefore, the festival uses unorthodox measures by introducing a so-called 'butt tax' for each cigarette brought into the festival.

The refund is 50 cent per cigarette and will be charged at the entrance. The cigarettes sold from stalls at the festival will have tax added to the price. One half is refund-levied. The 25 cent refund per cigarette butt is paid back by handing in cigarette butts.

The service guards, who check wristbands at the entrances, will also make sure that no cigarettes are brought into the festival area without a 'butt tax' label. We will establish butt tax stations at all entrances. Moreover, our refund stalls will also pay out cigarette butt refund - with a minimum of four and rounded down to the nearest euro.

- There are millions of cigarette butts left at the festival site after a Roskilde Festival, and they constitute an environmental impact, which we want to minimise. With the butt tax and the refund system we want to make our audience aware of the fact that smoking has other consequences that haven't thought of, and secondly, we want to give them a great reason to help us clean up, says spokeswoman Christina Bilde.

Approximately one in four adults in Denmark smoke. If these figures are applied to Roskilde Festival's audience, the festival is visited annually by over 30,000 smokers. If they smoke 100 cigarettes each during a festival, it leaves three million cigarette butts. The tax would then bring in 75,000 euro for the festival - and a further 75,000 euro for the busy butt collectors.

Y si llevas tabaco de liar?

April fools' day

No postean una noticia en domingo ni aunque fuera la confirmación de bowie

Por cierto, fuertes rumores de Jack white.
