Roadburn 2012: The Afterburner (Tickets Still Available)

Posted on Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Tickets for the traditional Afterburner event are still available! Get your tickets HERE | 32,50 euro (+ service fees)

Once again, the Roadburn Afterburner scheduled on Sunday, April 15th at the 013 venue in Tilburg, Holland, will be a full-on festival day with bands playing on the Main Stage and the Green Room. Merchandise will be set up at Stage01, formerly known as the Bat Cave.

Whether the Afterburner will mark your fourth consecutive day at Roadburn 2012 or the first, you are in for a massive treat. With an emphasis on avant-garde, doom, outsider metal, dark psychedelica and sludge, this year’s event sums up everything that our festival has come to represent. The Roadburn Afterburner is perfect for those who want to experience the essence of Roadburn in just one day rather than attend the entire weekend. For Roadburn veterans, it is the ultimate way to stay on this planet we call home a little longer.

We are thrilled to announce that headliner Coroner will be bringing their amazingly tight brand of technical thrash metal to the 2012 Afterburner. The rest of the line-up is bursting with fantastic bands. With both Yob (Catharsis) and Bongripper (Satan Worshipping Doom) playing entire album sets, there is no shortage of psychedelic and instrumental doom. And do not miss the old school doom-riffage of legendary US-doomsters Internal Void who will be making a rare European appearance.

Dutch outsider black metal / doom experimenters Urfaust will bring their unique musical vision to the festival with an uncommon live appearance. The Mount Fuji Doomjazz Corporation, the improvisational side project involving members of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble, will cook up a heady mixture of sounds and sights with a film and music project at the Afterburner.

Relax in the ethereal buzz of Bong, get your post-metal / post-rock fix with Atlantis before submitting to a final dose of pummeling heaviness from Dragged into Sun Slight, Fleshpress and Black Cobra.
